Celebrity physical fitness trainer Jillian Michaels is being sued for alleged false advertising on her diet supplements.
A woman in California is seeking a class-action lawsuit against The Biggest Loser trainer. She filed a case earlier in the week in Los Angeles. The lawsuit claims that the woman, Christie Chistensen, purchased the product Jillian Michaels Maximum Strength Calorie Control in January. She contends that the pills failed to lessen her appetite or lose weight as advertised on the bottle of pills.
Michaels’ endorsement and picture appear on the bottle’s packaging with the title “America’s Toughest Trainer” on the label. The claim? “Two Capsules Before Main Meals and You Lose Weight … That’s It!”
“Ms. Michaels knows better — taking two pills before eating does not miraculously cause weight loss,” states the lawsuit.
