Abstract

DE LANGE, RW. Testosterone boosters: a report of a supplement's misleading labelling claims. SA J. Sports Med. [online]. 2020, vol.32, n.1, pp.1-3. ISSN 2078-516X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2078-516x/2020/v32i1a7426.

This paper illustrates how labelling claims of a testosterone booster supplement mislead consumers. The labelling claims misappropriate scientific terminology, exaggerate and misrepresent research as evidence for the product's purported efficacy.

Keywords : deceptive advertising; D-aspartic acid; abuse of scientific information.
