Mumbai, 4 May 2017: The CCC found the following claims of 165 advertisements in health care products or services to be either misleading or false or not adequately / scientifically substantiated and hence violating ASCI's Code. Some of the health care products or services advertisements also contravened provisions of the Drug & Magic Remedies Act and Chapter 1.1 and III.4 of the ASCI Code. Complaints against the following advertisements were UPHELD.
1. Rudralife (Rudrakash Therapy): The advertisement's claims, "Rudraksha Therapy", "Rudraksha for you to achieve Growth, Success and Wellbeing", "They provide Rudraksha tested in a ISO 9001-2015 certified laboratory" and "Hold 5 patents on medicinal usages of Rudraksha", were not proven with authentic supporting data, and are misleading by ambiguity and implication. Also, the advertisement exploits the consumers' lack of knowledge and is likely to lead to grave or widespread disappointment in the minds of consumers.
2. Slim-N-Health: The advertisement's claims (in Marathi) as translated into English, "Kavy Lypolysis is a new method due to which we can give proper shape to the body and eliminate obesity by reducing fat permanently", were not substantiated with any supporting clinical evidence, and are misleading by gross exaggeration regarding permanent fat reduction. Also, with reference to obesity ("latthapanna"), the advertisement is misleading by implication that the treatment would cure obesity and therefore is in breach of the law as it violated the Drugs & Magic Remedies Act (DMR Act).
3. Ayurwin Pharmaceutical Pvt. Ltd. (Ayurwin Nutri Slim+ Powder): The advertisement's testimonial claim (in Hindi) as translated into English, "Last year due to obesity, I decided to get slim by using Ayurwin Nutrislim.

As for the claim, "Certified by Ayush Board", the CCC noted that the advertiser has only a licence to manufacture the product.
