3 Competent and reliable scientific evidence defined as tests, analyses, research, studies, or other evidence based on the expertise of professionals in the relevant area, that have been conducted and evaluated in an objective manner by persons qualified to do so, using procedures generally accepted in the profession to yield accurate and reliable results. 3
4 Lane Labs 2000 FTC case with LaneLabs for BeneFin and SkinAnswer FTC found Lane Labs to have misled consumers and required a consent decree Standard consent order admitted wrongdoing and promised not to sin again 4
5 The Consent Decree The decree forbade express or implied misrepresentations regarding the existence, contents, validity, results, conclusions, or interpretations of any test, study or research in connection with the manufacturing, labeling, advertising, promotion, offering for sale, sale, or distribution of any food, dietary supplement, or drug. Lane Labs must refrain from making any representation about the effect of [a] product on any disease or disorder, or the effect of such product on the structure or function of the human body, or about any other health benefits of such product, unless, at the time the representation is made, it possessed and relied upon competent and reliable scientific evidence that substantiates the representation. Classic fencing in language to prevent future violations 5
6 Fast forward to 2009 Lane Labs New FTC action against Lane Labs -- AdvaCal and Fertil Male FTC argued that LL violated the earlier consent decree, but NJ federal court held that scientific minds could differ studies presented were competent and reliable scientific evidence.
