Benefiber Prebiotic Powder
In November 2020, a class-action lawsuit was filed against GSK Consumer Health for allegedly falsely advertising Benefiber prebiotic powders as “100% Natural” when, according to plaintiffs, the powders contain wheat dextrin, which is a synthetic ingredient. Later in the month, the complaint was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice, the reasons for which have not been disclosed. (Griffin et al v. GSK Consumer Health, Inc., Case No. 20-cv-16941, D.N.J.)
