Ingredient Source Investigation
Many supplement companies include various claims in advertising the supplement in order to increase the desirability and cost of the product. Included in these claims can be false claims regarding the source of the ingredients of the products. Often these claims are also included to make the product appear healthier. Some of these claims include “all natural,” “organic,” and “grass fed.”
If you believe that you have purchased a product that contained false or misleading claims regarding the source of the product’s ingredients, please call (949) 438-0033 for a free and confidential case evaluation.
Evaporated Cane Juice/Syrup Investigation
The FDA has recently declared that ingredient labels using terms such as “evaporated cane juice” or similar terms are false and misleading.
Sweeteners derived from sugar cane should not be listed in the ingredient declaration by names such as “evaporated cane juice,” which suggest that the ingredients are made from or contain fruit or vegetable “juice” as defined in 21 CFR 120.1. We consider such representations to be false and misleading under section 403(a)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) (21 U.S.C. 343(a)(1)) because they do not accurately describe the basic nature of the food and its characterizing properties (i.e., that the ingredients are sugars or syrups), as required by 21 CFR 102.5.
If you believe you have purchased a product that contained false or misleading ingredient names, or if you would like more information regarding evaporated can juice/syrup, please call (949) 438-0033 for a free and confidential case evaluation.

Natural Ingredients Investigation
Consumers are justifiable concerned about the ingredients used in the products that they use and consume. In an effort to meet this demand, companies are labeling their products as “natural”, “all natural”, “nothing artificial”, etc… Regrettably, not all products labeled as such live up to their advertising.
If you believe you have purchased a product that contained false or misleading advertising and was not actually natural, or if you would like more information regarding natural advertising and labeling, please call (949) 438-0033 for a free and confidential case evaluation.

Misleading Packaging Investigation
In an effort to mislead consumers, many manufacturers are packaging their products in a way that leads consumers to believe that they are receiving more of the product than is actually being sold. Some of these products utilize packaging with false bottoms. Another way that consumers are being misled is the use of empty space in the packaging.
If you believe you have purchased a product that contained false or misleading packaging, please call (949) 438-0033 for a free and confidential case evaluation.
