The FDA has cited Juve International, LLC for advertising its Maqui Juice as a drug in violation of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act because of the therapeutic claims it makes about the product. A warning letter from the agency said Juve advertises its juice as having a whole slew of miraculous drug-like benefits. Questionable claims include:
“… [R]educe your risk of cataracts.”
“Fight … diseases such as arthritis.”
“Prevents Strokes and Other Heart Ailments”
“Reduces Risk of Certain Cancers”
“Helps Prevent Osteoarthritis And Other Bone-related Diseases”
Nutritional supplements cannot claim to treat, cure, or prevent diseases or conditions. For more information, see the FDA’s Q&A page on supplements.
