You can't say the same thing about when homeopaths claim that their sugar pills will cure cancer or HIV or are more effective than vaccinations and people forgo real treatment in favor of this junk.

As I did not see the video, I can't comment on it specifically I guess. I have not personally seen a commercial product make any claim as they are forbidden to make any claim with regards to "cure" or "treat".
