 Just heard of a scenario in which the Australian regulator in the health care space (TGA) has directed a natural supplement company to take down the testimonials on their website 

Our kids have their wellness powder when not feeling great. It works really well

Hundreds of people have posted testimonials saying they had great benefits from taking the product 

The TGA is concerned that these people’s opinions “are overselling the benefits” or something like that 

What a crazy world… You’re not allowed to promote your business with genuine happy customer feedback 

Makes the idea of a free market laughable
