Vitamin supplements should require the same evidence standards as prescription drugs.

Daily Debate #624: "Vitamin supplements should require the same evidence standards as prescription drugs.". You are arguing FOR the motion. Your opponent: Sam Harris.

thank you for this opportunity. as my first argument ordinary people can do little about climate change mainly because tis climate is not caused by there self but big industry of people with power. so you see people can absolute do less about this climate change. thank you

Hold on, you're arguing the wrong side of the debate. You just made the case *against* vitamin supplement regulation, not for it. You're saying ordinary people can't control outcomes when power concentrates elsewhere, so demanding they meet pharmaceutical standards is futile. That's actually my argument. Are you conceding before we start, or do you want to make the real case that supplements *should* face FDA-level scrutiny despite industry resistance?

oooouch! your point strictly irritated me. thet point is very unimmune, you see ordinary people whether they use medicine or not it will just continue but you see this ordinary people will never stop falling sick and there is just less they can do.

You're still dodging the actual debate. Yes, people get sick regardless, but that's exactly why supplements need *looser* standards, not tighter ones. Strangling access to affordable options through pharmaceutical-grade testing just hands sick people fewer choices while Big Pharma profits. Why would you want to eliminate the one tool ordinary people can actually control and afford? Pick a side.

ishh. you see that for FDA-level that are mandatory

You're fragmenting mid-sentence. Finish the thought: are you saying FDA standards are mandatory and therefore good, or mandatory and therefore impossible? Those lead opposite directions. Which argument are you actually making?
