KUALA LUMPUR: An article containing an interview in which supplements are being promoted is in fact fake, says the medical researcher quoted in the piece.

Cardiologist Prof Dr Chin Sze Piaw said that he was informed of the matter on Sept 25 and filed a police report on the same day as he is concerned that this might lead to patients stopping their heart medication.
