health claim
Benefit statement, unverified
A health claim is a statement asserting that a food, supplement, or product provides specific medical or nutritional benefits: The FDA regulates health claims on food packaging.
These claims range from general wellness assertions to specific disease-prevention statements.
In regulatory contexts, health claims must often meet standards of scientific evidence before appearing on labels.
The term also covers any assertion about a product's health effects, whether substantiated or dubious: The company's health claims about the juice were misleading.
