I didn't say it does. I don't think that MonaVie says it does (if they do please provide a link to medical claims). I'm sure that there are distributors who say it does, but according to your logic about pharmaceuticals - it's ancillary - as you say you are discussing the corporation (or the product, you seem to blur that line).
Pharmaceuticals are relevant in that many of the points you make about MonaVie apply to them - only worse.
"According to Canadian researchers, approximately 32,000 hospitalized patients (and possibly as many as 106,000) in the USA die each year because of adverse reactions to their prescribed medications." (http://www.drugwarfacts.org/cms/?q=node/30)
And for the record I don't drink MonaVie nor have I ever had a transaction either way with that company. I don't love their marketing practices as an overall and the product is way overpriced for me to even think about it.
On the other hand I did drink a shot of Xango once and I regrew a missing limb!
The original article was decent - it basically said there's no magic. Yet people will always WANT magic and so there will always be someone to promise it.
