These among hundreds if not thousands of others pushing BS supplements over science backed cures are a menace to society. They are regular attackers of science backed data. Do you take their supplements? If so then I would refer you to Quacwatch.

Your anecdotal mention of your own health is not a study and not science. That being said, I take supplements too but I take science backed supplements. While I agree that supplements can be beneficial if they are science backed, I think you missed the entire point of the video.
