1991
This segment is introduced from Muscle Beach, California. The clip takes a look at the supplement industry as a whole; these pills contain an incredible amount of amino acids, herbs, vitamins, minerals…we speak with a doctor at the Bronx V.A. medical center who tells us without controversy, they’re scams. Can spiritual awareness and positive attitude be had in a bottle, for under $12?
We also speak with famed fitness man Jack Lalanne at the beginning and end of this clip, who gives us his answer: moderation. Vitamins and minerals drained from the body by poor habits, sugar and caffeine, must be replaced.
The dietary supplement market in the United States has grown tremendously since 1991, valued at over $53 billion in 2023.
