Class action filed: "gut healthy" claims insufficient for prebiotic dose
Cobbs v. VNGR Beverage, LLC (N.D. Cal.). Alleged that Poppi's ~2g prebiotic fiber per can was insufficient to support "gut healthy" marketing. Clinical literature (Swanson et al., systematic review) indicates 7.5g/day inulin minimum for measurable effects. Consumers would need 4+ cans/day, consuming 12.5-20g sugar in the process.
