"The problem is there may be no evidence that the natural products work.

Seriously - you remember nothing.
I can prove to you with 100% efficacy how effective megadose of vitamin C is. I will get 100 patients and have 100% efficacy for various colds, the real flu, infections etc. I can guarantee you that it works on 100.000 of 100.000 patients with zero side effects.
Anyone who claims crap like that has drunk the cool-aid with full abandon.
Linus Pauling (double Nobel price laureate by the way vs. your zero prices) wasn't the only one who claimed those things, but there have been thousands of MDs - some of them like Dr. Cathcart holding multiple multi-million dollar patents as a researcher (not vitamin-related).
Your quackery claims are frankly 100% the arguments used by the pharma lobby and their various shills and PR agency funded forum commentators.
"At least 16 well-designed, double-blind studies have shown that supplementation with vitamin C does not prevent colds and at best may slightly reduce the symptoms of a cold"
"Although Pauling's megavitamin claims lacked the evidence needed for acceptance by the scientific community, they have been accepted by large numbers of people who lack the scientific expertise to evaluate them."
