ACCOMPANYING LABELING: Pamphlets entitled "7/Eleven Multiple Mineral, Vitamin and Protein Tablets" and a number of loose bottle labels. RESULTS OF INVESTIGATION : The tablets in the metal containers were to be packed into bottles labeled as described above. The bottle labels and the pamphlets were prepared and printed by the dealer for use in promoting sales of the tablets. LIBELED : 2-11-59, E. Dist. Pa. CHARGE: 403(a)—while held for sale, the labeling of the article, namely, the above-mentioned bottle labels and pamphlets, contained false and misleading representations that the article contained substantially significant amounts of various vitamins, minerals, and proteins; that the total constituents of the article could be measured in terms of units of the U.S. Pharmacopeia; and that the article had nutritional properties which would: prevent and correct all illness and poor health; generate health, pep, energy, virile strength and vigor; prevent deficiency diseases; supply the requirements for basic and essential nutrition; and prevent infection, old age, fatigue and disease; and 403(3)—the article purported to be and was represented as a food for special dietary uses by reason of its vitamin, mineral, and protein content, and its label failed to bear, as required by regulations, a statement of the dietary properties upon which such dietary uses were based. The libel alleged also that the article was misbranded under the provisions of the law applicable to drugs, as reported in notices of judgment on drugs and devices, No. 6067. DISPOSITION : 1-4-60.
