Class Action Alleges GNC Supplements Contain Harmful Fillers
The lawsuit alleges that Turbo Shred and another supplement sold by GNC called Meltdown Punch Mango contain BMPEA and picamilon, a powerful amphetamine-like stimulant that has been linked to reports of hemorrhagic stroke and other serious side effects. The lawsuit, filed by the Oregon Attorney General’s office, claims that GNC knew or should have known about these potentially unsafe and illegal ingredients and misrepresented Turbo Shred and dozens of other similar products as lawful dietary supplements. The suit is: James Martin v. GNC Holdings, Inc. Case No. 2:15-cv-01522-NBF. U.S. District Court, Western District of Pennsylvania.
