I mean, if something truly works and has been tested extensively in several experiments with published papers and such, the underlying mechanisms don't need to be emphasized so much. All you'd need to say is "do this, it works, and by the way here are all the scientific papers published on it".


Reminds me of the way a pharmaceutical company will take a natural body substance and tweak it so they can patent it and charge a lot more. As in the case of Progestin/progesterone, the natural substance can be very healing... and the tweaked one, dangerous.
