It essentially means that anything else on the label that has an asterisk (*) next to it can be total bullshit.
Notice next time you use one of these products, that pretty much any claim about benefits has an asterisk next to it.
This applies to the USA. Those of you elsewhere probably have actual effective protections against snake-oil salespeople.
NO shit. I also wince at the disclaimers of prescription drugs, "May cause........ litany of insane crap nobody sane would take, "may cause squirrels to bight your nuts, may cause badgers to bite your vagina..... but end it with "and may lead to death."
Yeah, that’s not a disclaimer.
