In this YouTube review, Maximus Mark introduces the DVD "The Marketing of Madness: Are We All Insane?" which he obtained from the website foodmatters.tv. He explains that the documentary was produced by the Citizens' Commission on Human Rights (CCHR), an organization linked to Scientology, and clarifies that he is not a Scientologist. Maximus summarizes the film’s central critique of the pharmaceutical industry, highlighting claims that Prozac contains a high percentage of mercury, that many pills are ineffective, and that there is a revolving‑door relationship between drug companies and the FDA. He emphasizes that these topics are outside the usual scope of his fitness‑focused content, but recommends the DVD to viewers who may be using prescription drugs. He discloses that he receives no financial benefit from the recommendation and concludes with his usual advice to train hard, supplement smart, and eat well.

Hi, it's Maximus Mark, and today I'm going to be talking about a DVD called The Marketing of Madness: Are We All Insane? Now, I first came across this DVD on the foodmatters.tv website. Now, make sure you go to foodmatters.tv because it's actually not.com, it's a completely different website. So foodmatters.tv. Now, they have a number of different DVDs. I was ordering Food Matters, which is a DVD I also highly recommend, and because shipping was like $50, I I thought I'd chuck in The Market of Madness as well. I'm glad I did. I mean, it's quite a long and extensive documentary. It's made by the CCHR, which I believe is a, what's it called, a department of Scientology. Now, I say that up front, I'm not a Scientologist by any means, but it's a really good DVD. I mean, they do an extraordinary job at documenting the facts. Presenting it, the information, in a very easily accessible way. So what is this DVD about? What is it about? It's basically about the pharmaceutical industry, and it's a topic that I'm probably not going to cover on my blogs, and it's very interesting to look at and note, and what the companies are actually doing, and the crap that they're putting into people's body, and the crap that they're selling them. I learned on this DVD that Prozac is, what, 70 or 90% full of mercury, which is extremely harmful. You know, you don't want to have high levels of mercury at all in your body. It can cause you to go insane. You know, some of the pills actually don't work. How the FDA and the people at the drug companies and the pharmaceuticals are basically paid off by one each other and there's a revolving door between the two. It's an absolutely fascinating DVD. Again, it's called The Marketing of Madness: Are We All Insane? I got it from foodmatters.tv. So I suggest you go there. Again, the only reason, again, I didn't get any financial benefit from this. The only reason I'm promoting this is because it's a topic that I'm not going to cover. I'm not going to start talking about pharmaceutical drugs because quite frankly, I don't really want to go there. People come to me to get in really good shape and that's what I do best. I talk about nutrition, training, supplementation. I don't talk about pharmaceuticals. But if you're interested in that, it is an aspect of health and I do realize that, you know, maybe some of my, my readers and viewers are taking pharmaceutical products. If that's you, I'd highly recommend you get this DVD. To, to learn more. So check it out, guys. Till then, train hard, supplement smart, and eat well.
