False Claim of NASA Participation in Wrinkle Research
“According to information provided by NASA PAO, the “AS10″ food substance mentioned in this news story is not a NASA food product. This food substance may have been developed by someone else using a product developed originally by AmeriSciences but NASA itself has not used any material or food substance described in these various news stories related to wrinkles nor is it conducting any research related to the claims made in these news stories.”

    Yet another in a very long line of products making wild claims based on supposed scientific studies. I doubt this product does anything, and I doubt that NASA had anything to do with it.

    A company can manufacture a product like this very cheaply, and sell it with a “money back guarantee”, and still make lots of money. Even if it does nothing at all, only a fraction of people buying it will ask for a refund. And even for the people that do, they have basically given the company an interest-free loan. The scheme is simple and easy, and is why so many useless products are sold this way.

    For the record:
     

    Aaron V. Barson, Jr. was a volunteer/adjunct clinical assistant professor at
    the University of Utah from 1988 through 2002. He currently has no affiliation
    with the University of Utah. — Christopher Nelson, Assistant Vice President for Public Affairs, University of Utah Health Care

     At least someone thought NASA was credible enough to be worth using as a false reference.
