Are there even any tea-growing areas in the Himalayas?

I suppose Darjeeling could be considered as close to the Himalayas.
Bah, I clicked the link, it's not even (drinkable) tea, it's one of
those 'medicinal herb' pill scams.
Note the required disclaimer on the bottom of the page:
"This Product (or Statement) has not been evaluated by the Food And
Drug Administration (FDA). This Product is not intended to diagnose,
treat, cure or prevent any disease." But they're trying to market it as
an anti-oxidant, fat loss, stress relief suppliment.

*sigh*
why aren't these scammers fined/laughed out of business?

To which is added the following (a trifle less well known, maybe):

"Luck is hot and people funny,
Everybody's fond of money.
Lose the pot and sell your mother
Win it back and buy another.
Who cares what futures fall and crash?
You may win the ton of cash!"
