The FDA will not allow advertising to push their products.
SAMe is an exception...as it has studies the FDA accepts.

But I do recall OPCs on TV 20 yrs ago.

And NatureMade does advertise, but has to be very careful not to address treatment for specific illnesses for their products, other than SAMe. Krill oil is advertised, Previgen.

There are ads on TV on cable on most stations during offtimes for various supplement products...but they have disclaimers attached to them most of the time.

The most recent Coral Calcium hoohaa...was swiftly removed from sale and TV.
