About this web site, quoting from:
http://www.quackwatch.org/11Ind/lapre.html

Don Lapre is a fast-talking character who has been selling
"get rich" opportunities for many years. His infomercials describe
how, while living in a "tiny one-bedroom apartment, "he
became a millionaire by placing hundreds of "tiny little ads" in
newspapers. Doug Grant is a "nutritionist" who claims to have
vast experience in advising people about health and fitness.
Recently, they teamed up to promote "The Greatest Vitamin
in the World," which Grant reportedly formulated and Lapre is
marketing through infomercials and Web sites. This article
analyzes their current sales pitch and explains why we believe you
should ignore their advice.
