FDA notes
The article is subject to refusal of admission pursuant to Section 801(a)(3) of the FD&C Act in that it appears to be misbranded within the meaning of: Section 403(r)(1)(A) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 343(r)(1)(A)] because the product label bears nutrient content claims, but the product does not meet the requirements to make such claims. Claim: "Rich in Vitamin C and Antioxidants", but product does not list Vitamin C in the Nutrition Facts. Claim "rich in nutrients," but the product does not contain any nutrients that would meet the definition of "rich in" in accordance with 21 CFR 101.54(b). Claim: "antioxidant" must comply with, among other requirements, the requirements listed in 21 CFR 101.54(g). Missing name of nutrient(s) with recognized antioxidant activity, as required by 21 CFR 101.54(g)(4) Section 403(e)(2) of the FD&C Act in that the food is in package form and the label fails to bear an accurate statement of the quantity of the contents in terms of weight, measure, or numerical count. Section 403(i)(1) of the Act [21 U.S.C. §343(i)(1)] in that the product labels fail to bear an appropriate statement of identity. The term "Triphala" is foreign (Indian) term meaning three fruits. Product appears to be intended to be mixed with water to be consumed as a beverage; however, the statement of identity does not indicate that it is used to make a beverage; for example, a beverage mix or a tea. Section 403(i)(2) of the FD&C Act in that the product is fabricated from two or more ingredients and the ingredients are not declared appropriately, as required under 21 CFR 101.4. The ingredient list appears to declare two terms for each ingredient. There are no provisions in 21 CFR 101.4 for declaring multiple terms for each ingredient in a food product. The terms used in the ingredient list appear to be foreign terms. | The article is subject to refusal of admission pursuant to Section 801(a)(3) of the FD&C Act in that it appears to be misbranded within the meaning of: Section 403(r)(1)(A) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 343(r)(1)(A)] because the product label bears nutrient content claims, but the product does not meet the requirements to make such claims.
