Navigating the Maze of Claims in the Dietary Supplements Market

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) enforces against false, misleading and deceptive advertising. Claims can be misleading if not substantiated. Learn how testimonials and social media can trip you up if you are not paying attention to the principles established by the FTC. These principles are followed by plaintiffs’ lawyers and state law enforcers who seek to put your money in their pockets and competitors who will keep you honest. Ignorance is no excuse, so why learn the hard way? To assist in complying with the law while maximizing sales, attend this webinar to learn the requirements and how to avoid the potholes of noncompliance. Join our panel as they address legal standards, today’s regulatory environment and the lawsuit risks and liabilities marketers face if claims are not adequately supported by research. Recent enforcement actions, and the level of substantiation respondents in those actions possessed or did not possess will also be explored.

Topics

• Are you aware that the level of required substantiation is dictated by the detail of the claim that you make for your product?
• Do you have documented claim substantiation processes in place to ensure your claims are substantiated and reviewed BEFORE they are published? When in doubt, do you make it standard practice to run industry-unique claims by your counsel BEFORE they are published?
