Hydroxycut Hardcore Elite

Iovate Health Services Sciences USA Inc. has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit alleging it made false and misleading statements regarding the effectiveness of its Hydroxycut dietary supplements.

If you purchased a Hydroxycut supplement product between May 2, 2009 and Feb. 15, 2017, you may be entitled to a cash payment from the Hydroxycut class action settlement.

Plaintiff Daniel Garcia filed the Iovate class action lawsuit in July 2012, alleging that he relied on false and misleading statements in advertisements and on the product label for Hydroxycut dietary supplements.

According to the Hydroxycut class action lawsuit, these allegedly false and misleading statements violate consumer protection laws, including California’s False Advertising Laws, Unfair Competition Laws, Consumer Legal Remedies Act, and the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.

Garcia claims that Iovate has been unjustly enriched as a result of its misleading advertising and labeling of the Hydroxycut supplements.

  • Hydroxycut Hardcore Elite Non-Stimulant

Iovate denies the allegations but agreed to settle the Hydroxycut class action lawsuit to avoid the expense and risk of continued litigation.

Under the terms of the proposed Hydroxycut class action settlement, Iovate has agreed to make available a Claim Fund of $8 million to pay the valid claims submitted by eligible Class Members.

In addition to offering refunds to consumers who have purchased the Hydroxycut supplements, Iovate has also agreed to modify the labels of its Hydroxycut products to remove certain statements and provide additional disclosures to consumers.

The deadline to opt out of or object to the Hydroxycut class action settlement is May 30, 2017.

UPDATE: On Dec. 11, 2017, Top Class Actions viewers started receiving checks in the mail from the Hydroxycut class action settlement resolving claims that the company falsely marketed its dietary supplements.
