Case overview
What this settlement is about
A proposed class action accuses Trader Joe's of overstating the potency of its Advanced Strength Probiotic Dietary Supplement. The label claims '30 Billion CFU Per Capsule,' but the lawsuit alleges independent testing found an average of only about 8.75 billion CFUs per capsule—less than 70% of what's promised. The suit claims this shortfall means the supplement doesn't deliver the digestive and immune health benefits suggested by its labeling, and that consumers in California and New York ended up paying more than the product was actually worth as a result.
