Executive Summary
"PLURAL" NUTRITIONAL SUPPORT STATEMENT DISCLAIMERS PERMISSIBLE under a proposed rule published in the Dec. 28 Federal Register that implements, in part, the provisions of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act. For supplement labels bearing multiple nutritional support statements or the same statement several times, "repeated use" of the disclaimer with each statement "could be confusing to consumers and burdensome to manufacturers," FDA conceded. The agency is proposing that in such cases one "plural" disclaimer may be used to cover all relevant statements.
