This looks like it might need FDA approval.

Are these things regulated by the FDA? And if not, why not?

Without FDA approval, they are not allowed to market it as treating almost anything medical.

They have FDA approval. It’s stated in the first paragraph of the article.

Sounds like FDA approval process.

Is this something that is in scope for FDA?

They can't. Not FDA approved.

Surely this is a claim that warrants FDA approval.
