FDA Warns Seller of Vitamins B12, C, D, and K
On April 7, 2021, the FDA issued a warning letter to Unived Inc following a review of the company's websites, which found statements made about the company's products Unived brand Colox, CalDveg, B12+D3, and D3+K2-7 to be drug claims.
For example, Unived CalDveg was promoted with statements such as "To ensure a healthy bone building process and prevent your bones from weakening and being afflicted by disease, you need an appropriate combination of the right nutrients. Calcium, Vitamin C, Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2-7 are all needed for intake, absorption and utilization of minerals for good bones. That is why Unived's CalDveg is the best calcium supplement for you."
See ConsumerLab's Reviews of Calcium Supplements, Vitamin C Supplements, Vitamin D Supplements, and Vitamin K Supplements for tests of related products.
Unived B12+D3 was promoted with statements such as "Adequate levels of B12 vitamin... can lower the risk of neurodegenerative diseases. B12 also has the ability to help regulate mood disorders... Vitamin D3 is integral in... combating mental health disorders."
