Why do people do this?

The other day I was talking to a fellow student when they asked what my parents do for a living. I told them my mom was a teacher and my step dad was a truck driver. They then asked what my father does and I then informed them he had passed away. They then went into why and how and all that mess. When I told them he had Colon cancer they started telling me about this colon cleanser that I should get that would keep me from getting the cancer.

The sad part about this is that is not the first time I have gotten this response. I don’t understand why people feel the need to tell me about this. One I was told by a few people that they don’t work, 2 of those people being doctors. I just sometimes wonder why these people say things like that. Most of them don’t even say oh thats sad, or sorry they just jump in with this cleanser stuff.
