Summary
Phoenix Nutritionals, Inc. was cited for marketing eight nutritional products as unapproved drugs through their websites and social media, including making disease claims such as treating cholesterol imbalance, blood sugar issues, stress, joint problems, inflammation, and immune support—with "Best Immune Support" specifically claimed to mitigate, prevent, treat, or cure COVID-19. These marketing claims established the products as drugs under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act because they were intended for use in the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, violating requirements for FDA approval. The FDA identified the violations by reviewing the company's websites (phoenixvitamins.com and healthyinformation.com) and Facebook page in June 2021, where specific claims linked to shop-now buttons that directed consumers to purchase the products.
