Is livestrong.com Safe?

This site is run in cohoots with gundrymd.com. An absolute boiler plate example of an online health scam. It's like every scam. Sell yourself, tell people what they want to hear. You'll hear all about the great man- sell yourself- and then hear how he has a special energy pill for you- tell the gullible what they want to hear. Investigated for making unsubstantiated and dangerous claims, it's like all the internet "cures" that people want to believe are true. The local BBB's complaints against them are pretty typical. Less than a year, so only two reviews there, but google and you'll find lots more that are identical. Haven't found a positive one yet. ***** Here's another: Typical review: ***** Update: after 30 days, 30 complaints with that ONE BBB office. No positive reviews. Very bad advice, based on telling people what they want to hear. You should eat more whole grains and less refined flour? No! Just the opposite. Those whole grains are raising your blood pressure and making you fat! BS like that. Really bad, unfounded advice, based on "the great man", who just happens to be peddling what you would *like* to believe...and they have a product to sell too.

Website disseminates health related information over an insecure HTTP connection. While the infornation is not prptected by HIPAA, ISPs or anyone else with access to the data in transit have no legitinate reason to see the health information one is browsing.

A safe website that passed all my scans. It is used mostly by parents and youth pastors or youth development individuals to get ideas on things to do with youth in a positive setting. If you aren't religious, this can still be a good site to get ideas from.

There is no reason available to support my negative rating of this site, so I had to choose Scam. There should be another category of reasons, such as Unfounded Claims. This site makes unfounded medical/health claims about supplements and vitamins. I have the same problem on many sites that I rate. It's such a problem that I'm considering not using WOT anymore if the issue isn't addressed.

Lance Armstrong founded a Cancer Charity organization named LiveStrong. The web-site for that organization is livestrong.ORG. livestrong.COM is pretending to be the web-site for LiveStrong. Given what has happened I won't be surprised if both domains are gone within two years. I used to block this host in my blocking hosts file available at ***** and securemecca.com. The equivalent of this for me would be for somebody to create a ***** web-site pretending to be mine.
