I was pointing to the comments of the company's spokesperson. If what he says about the Army being a huge customer for Iovate is true, then I think they need to have a policy shift.

Especially when your prone to be in combat situations. You never know when losing that 10 - 20 lbs will give you the edge that meant you get to live another day. I dont blame them one bit for wanting that extra edge. theres a lot of pressure to be in the best physical shape possible. Especially when your prone to be in combat situations.
