God, religion and miracles. Three inseparable things, if you are speaking in a theosophical way. It seems that The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) is not pleased with miracle claims.

The ASA ruled that the implied message discourages people to seek proper medical attention hence the advert should not be used again.
