Healthy Trends Worldwide, LLC
FDA issued a warning letter to Healthy Trends Worldwide, LLC (operating as GoldenAfter50.com) regarding their BPS-5 dietary supplement product. The company's website, Facebook, and YouTube marketing claimed the product could lower blood pressure, fight blood disorders, and address heart disease, causing FDA to classify BPS-5 as an unapproved new drug under the FD&C Act. FDA also found the product misbranded because it lacked adequate directions for use for conditions requiring licensed practitioner supervision. The letter demands corrective action within 15 working days and warns that failure to comply may result in seizure or injunction.
