CHARGE: 402(b) (1)—when shipped and while held for sale, the valuable con- stituent, riboflavin, had been in part omitted or abstracted from the article; 403(a)—the label statement "Each fluid oz. contains: * * * Riboflavin (B2) 4 mg." was false and misleading as applied to an article which contained less than the declared amount of riboflavin; the statements "M.D.R. for Niacin- amide * * * not established," and "Need in human nutrition for * * * Me- thionine is not established," were false and misleading since they were contrary to fact; and 403(j)—the article purported to be and was represented as a food for special dietary use by reason of its vitamin and mineral content and its label failed to bear, as required by regulations, a statement of the propor- tion of the minimum daily requirement for vitamins Bi and B2, and niacin- amide and for iron supplied by such food when consumed in a specified quan- tity during the period of one day. The libel alleged also that the article was misbranded under the provi- sions of the Act relating to drugs as reported in notices of judgment on drugs and devices, No. 6806. DISPOSITION : 7-6-61.
