Yeah he actually does get heat for too much stuff. The only controversy I heard about his fat burner was that a girl tried to commit suicide by ODing on it. From what I heard, the only trouble he got from the court case was not having sufficient warning on his labels. And some people make a big deal about liver failure from his supplements. He was the first to introduce superdrol. That was kind of something people wanted. I sure as heck can’t blame him for that. A lot of it seems overblown to me.
Craze looks like a different situation though.
There were really several different situations with Matt. People in hindsight tend to lump them all together but really they were all separate unique situations; some of which I think he got unfairly villainized over but then some of which I can completely understand why people viewed things the way they do negatively about.
The fat burner situation was so long ago and I heard so many different versions of it, I'm not going to speculate.
As far as Superdrol, he was the first to introduce it. It was unfortunate for the people that did have liver issues with it but as you said, there was a huge market of people that wanted a product like Superdrol and Matt came from the background of being a ph company. And at the time, the thought process was if they weren't listed as specifically banned, it would be legal. So its important to look at this one in the context of the time period. In 2022, we know years later that that isn't how the government viewed it at the time, but he didn't know that then.
Brands should 100% never put anything in their products that the label doesn't show is in there in my opinion. It was pretty widely told and known that that happened with Craze so I can completely understand if people criticize him for that.
Some people also say that they spiked some of their other supplements and if he did that, it was wrong of him to do; but I don't know whether he did or not.
The only reason I commented on Rebound XT was because at the time, we made a competing product (the original version of Inhibit-E was ATD) and had tested some different brands and his had tested fine; so I didn't want to see him get criticized over that one. I'm not defending him over anything else, just speaking to the one case in point that I have knowledge of.
