Executive Summary
The Electronic Retailing Self-Regulation Program refers Moxxor, the omega-3 dietary supplement, to the Federal Trade Commission after the product's manufacturer of the same name failed to respond to an inquiry about its product, ERSP says Oct. 27. ERSP conducted a review of the firm's online advertising after receiving an anonymous complaint, and later requested substantiation for performance, endorsement, superiority and testimonial claims. ERSP also refers Siglas Inc. to the FTC for not substantiating performance and exclusivity claims for the Sauna Twin Multi-Lipo Reductor. Siglas failed to submit a "substantive response" to ERSP despite multiple requests and a 10-day deadline extension, ERSP said in a separate Oct. 27 release
