Settlement Information

A Settlement has been reached with Bactolac Pharmaceutical, Inc. (“Bactolac”), NaturMed, Inc. (d/b/a Institute for Vibrant Living) (“NaturMed”), and Independent Vital Life, LLC (“IVL2”) in a class action lawsuit about the sale of certain voluntarily recalled lots of the dietary supplement All Day Energy Greens and All Day Energy Greens Fruity (collectively, “ADEG”) in 2014 and 2015.

Plaintiffs claim that 99 lots of ADEG manufactured in 2014 and 2015 by Bactolac and sold to consumers by NaturMed contained ingredients not identified on the product label and omitted certain ingredients required by the product formula, which caused the supplement to be adulterated. Plaintiffs allege that the manufacture and sale of adulterated ADEG renders Bactolac and NaturMed liable under theories of breach of warranty, state consumer protection statutes, and under common law tort theories for monetary damages. Plaintiffs further allege that IVL2 is a mere continuation of NaturMed and is liable for the wrongful acts committed by its predecessor.

The Defendants deny Plaintiffs’ allegations, and any alleged wrongdoing in connection with the manufacture and sale of ADEG, and dispute the factual, legal, scientific, and other bases for Plaintiffs’ claims.
