Health Research Laboratories, LLC

Health Research Laboratories, LLC, a Texas-based dietary supplement company, and its owner were banned from advertising or selling dietary supplements under an FTC consent order finalized in June 2022. The enforcement action was triggered by claims that their products treat, cure, or reduce the risk of disease — classic disease-claim violations under FTC and FDA standards. The proposed settlement was announced in March 2022 and received final approval in June 2022, resulting in a permanent ban on supplement sales and disease-related marketing claims.
