Chinese herbal supplements: Repeat Offenders Banned From Claiming Products Treat or Cure Diseases

Chinese herbal supplements: Repeat Offenders Banned From Claiming Products Treat or Cure Diseases: "An operation selling Chinese herbal supplements is banned from claiming its products treat or cure diseases, to settle Federal Trade Commission charges it violated a previous court order. The FTC alleged the sellers of Dia-Cope, a pill claimed to prevent, treat, and cure diabetes, violated the order by misrepresenting the health benefits of their product and misrepresenting that clinical trials proved their claims. The defendants will give up their ill-gotten gains – all of the assets they received from the sale of Dia-Cope."
