08 Jan 2014 --- The Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), the dietary supplement industry’s leading trade association, commends the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) for its initiative against deceptive advertising of weight-loss products. FTC has announced “Operation Failed Resolution,” which includes cases against four companies making unfounded or misleading claims, as well as resources for media and consumers to help them recognize implausible claims that can cost consumers millions of dollars and harm consumers by encouraging them to postpone the truly effective, healthful things they should do to lose weight.
