FTC v. Enforma

Executive Summary

Supplement firm preliminarily enjoined from making certain weight-loss claims for Chitozyme and Acceleron under Los Angeles federal Judge Spencer Letts' Oct. 30 order. FTC says Enforma must recall, repackage and relabel products while also ensuring vendors are in compliance. Enforma is seeking stay of the preliminary injunction pending appeal. FTC now is expected to seek similar injunctive relief for Enforma's Fat Trapper Plus and Exercise In A Bottle. Court's order stems from FTC's July 23 civil contempt motion (1"The Tan Sheet" Aug. 5, 2002, p. 5)...
