Natural Cures Author Needs a Cure for Legal Trouble
Kevin Trudeau, the best selling author and self-proclaimed expert on natural cures violated a 2004 court order by making patently false claims in a book about a weight loss regimen according to a Federal Court ruling on Monday.
Judge Robert W. Gettleman wrote in his ruling about Trudeau, “clearly misrepresents in his advertisements the difficulty of the diet described in his book, and by doing so, he has misled thousands of consumers.”
In 2004, Trudeau paid $2 million to settle the FTC’s charges and agreed to the court order prohibiting him from infomercials except those that accurately promote books.
