Federal regulators cautioned three companies to stop making their “unsubstantiated advertising claims” on all the alleged benefits of CBD products, ranging from oils to soft gels to gummies.
According to the letters, the sites made all sorts of claims about serious conditions including Alzheimer’s and cancer. One letter was sent to Relievus, a pain management practice with patients in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In one statement on the company’s website, which has since been removed, Relievus said “CBD successfully stopped cancer cells in multiple different cervical cancer varieties.
Requests for comment to the other two companies — Nutra Pure and PotNetwork Holdings — were not immediately returned. CBD is a non-intoxicating cannabis derivative. It’s become a booming multi-million dollar business that’s getting mixed into everything from jelly beans to coffee and pet products. Until that time, Gottlieb said it was “unlawful” to sell food with CBD into interstate commerce, or to market it as a dietary supplement.”
Mary Engle, associate director of the FTC’s Advertising Practices Division, said the commission was “always concerned about advertising claims affecting consumers’ health or safety, and is particularly concerned about products purporting to treat serious diseases such as Alzheimer’s and cancer. Regardless of the type of product, marketers must have solid science to back up their claims that a product can improve people’s health. Under FTC law, CBD products are no different.
The FDA are not doctors or scientists, their Cunts who receive envelopes of cash to accept the drugs they back.
