Activia yoghurt manufacturers Dannon to pay $21m in settlements over unsubstantiated health claims



















The Dannon Co. Inc. will pay $21 million in settlements with federal regulators and several states over unsubstantiated health claims. The food company said its Activia yogurt contains beneficial bacteria.
Dannon also said its dairy drink boosts immunity. The company must receive federal approval before making certain claims. Yogurt offers many benefits, including providing calcium and protein.

LWDLIK- Is happy that someone out there is cracking down on false advertising. That will be an eye opener for other companies too.
