Same with Vitamin D, almost. If it were patent-protected, you'd probably get a big list of features promoted for an almost "miracle pill" that would probably cost a few dollars per pill. But Vitamin D is not patent protected and it's dirt cheap, so not only does Big Pharma have no interest in promoting it, but it would rather you take much more dangerous drugs and much more expensive drugs to cure the same things Vitamin D does. This is what a private healthcare system gets you, where profit is always a bigger priority than the well-being of the patient.
