No. The whole site screams "And on the next Dr. Oz ..."

It's 99% the BBB seal, I think, which is basically a membership of people who pay to get that certificate. It's entirely meaningless. It's right up there with the "NORTON SECURE" certificates you see all over the place on sites that have no idea what they're doing. Frankly, though, this is a medical device, and I want all the resources I can find on how effective it is. It'd be far more worrying not to have "FDA cleared" on it, for example.
