SANTA CLARITA, Calif.,
Nov. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
Biostar Technology International, LLC 4/17/17 (update)
Last year, in 2017, the FDA published a warning
letter against Biostar Technology International, LLC in which
wrongly accused the company of marketing natural supplements as
cancer drugs. The FDA warning letter outlined that natural
substances, can't be identified and sold as cancer curing without
FDA approval. While the warning letter from the FDA did not provide
any proof of actual sales or distribution, the FDA alleged that
"descriptions, flyers, and invisible search engine keys" were used
to make various claims, even-though the website contained legal
notices and the "FDA disclaimer" found on almost every natural
supplement website and product label.
What may seem as an oversight by the FDA investigators, the
warning letter was published online using the wrong company name.
The main website mentioned on the letter was addressed to the
owners of www.biostarorganix.com. This website is owned by "Biostar
Organix Healthcare Association" which is registered as an
Unincorporated Association of California, and not "Biostar Technology
International, LLC". It is a little-known fact that, Unincorporated
Associations are not recorded electronically or available online to
search; therefore, because California does not post this information
electronically, it would be difficult for anyone to find. It would
seem that the FDA made an oversight on how it verified the website
owner to the correct company name. Nonetheless, while this mistake
was being overlooked, the warning letter remained posted with the
wrong company name. This apparent oversight by the FDA had caused
Biostar Technology International, LLC, much confusion on how to
react at the time of the publication. Nonetheless, the FDA did
update their records and changed a subsequent the letter to reflect
the correct company name.
Biostar Organix Healthcare Association shared a copy of the
letter from the FDA dated 08/27/18,
which now is correctly addressed to Biostar Organix Healthcare
Association, and no longer Biostar Technology International, LLC.
In response to the letter, Ulysses Sheretov, President and CTO of
Biostar Technology, LLC said, "Biostar Technology International,
LLC unequivocally denies that they owned or operated any of the
websites listed in the past FDA warning letter. While it's not an
apology letter from the FDA, we feel this letter has nonetheless
exonerated Biostar Technology from FDA warning letter issued
on 4/17/17 and when dealing with the
ever-changing nature of the FDA, we will take what we can get."
