This is a similar issue we had in the protein powder industry with amino acid spiking.[1] TL;DR is that companies were putting cheap filler aminos like taurine and glycine into protein powders, which would pass as nitrogen on a "protei

Not relevant given that chiropractors are making money off said claims, and dentists are not. Dentists stand to make less money when their patients take care of their oral health with something that costs literally a penny per day.
