XENADRINE EFX, CORTI SLIM, TRIM SPA AND ONE-A-DAY WEIGHT SMART ALL WERE FINED!!



The Federal Trade Commission on Thursday fined the marketers of four weight loss pills $25 million for making false advertising claims ranging from rapid weight loss to reducing the risk of serious illnesses like cancer, osteoporosis and Alzheimer’s.

“Paying for fad science is a good way to lose cash, not pounds,” FTC Chairman Deborah Platt Majoras said of the products, which advertised heavily on television, in magazines and on the Internet. (There everywhere)

“Testimonials from individuals are not a substitute for science,” she said. “And that’s what Americans need to understand. The marketers are required to back up the claims with the science, and if they can’t do that they can’t make the claim.”

Fines were levied against marketers of Xenadrine EFX, One A Day Weight Smart, CortiSlim and TrimSpa. The companies all say they have accepted the FTC fines, but without admitting guilt or accepting liability, CBS News correspondent Sandra Hughes reports.

Well what I’m about to tell you could WOW you!

Could Justin and Cameron be over? Could be. They reportedly didn’t spend Christmas together either.
He was in his hometown of Memphis, while Diaz was with her family skiing in Vail, CO.

What happened on New Year’s, you asked?

Well it was reported that Kate Hudson and Timberlake was partying in her L.A.-area home. They left many with raised eyebrows because the two appeared to be quite chummy…. a source says, “They were flirting and talking all night.”

And not mention, they were seen going upstairs together. “When Kate came back downstairs she had a different outfit on,” the source went on.

As the the party died down Timberlake stayed put. It didn’t look like he was plan on going anywhere.

Timberlake’s rep declined to comment. Hudson’s rep, who also reps Diaz, tells, “He was one of many guests at the party. They are friends, nothing more.”

Diaz has never been too keen on Timberlake’s close relationship with his ex-girlfriend Veronica Finn. But she was in Memphis with J.T. for Christmas……
