This has been making the rounds, so I'll add it here. We are all aware of the blatant frauds being sold making medical claims. Every time I enter a pharmacy, I check to see how many homeopathic products they sell. I've always wondered how they get away with it and how to complain. Now I know: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/email/oc/buyonline/buyonlineform.cfm.
I strongly encourage everyone to take the small amount of time necessary to report any quackery they may come across. The FDA does pay attention, as seen by the ban of Zicam. This is something we can do proactively, let's not waste the opportunity. Add your comment

No Libel Laws in Science
The use of the English libel laws to silence critical discussion of medical practice and scientific evidence discourages debate, denies the public access to the full picture and encourages use of the courts to silence critics. The British Chiropractic Association has sued Simon Singh for libel. The scientific community would have preferred that it had defended its position about chiropractic through an open discussion in the medical literature or mainstream media.
