The Kardashian sisters – Kim, Khloe and Kourtney stars of the reality TV show "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" are faced with a $5 million class action lawsuit for their involvement with QuickTrim – an alleged weight loss product.
The defendants are alleged to have marketed QuickTrim stating that it increases metabolism, curbs appetite, and promotes weight loss.
The Manhattan federal court states that QuickTrim's main ingredient is caffeine, which the FDA has determined is not a safe or effective treatment for weight control. This has reportedly upset QuickTrim consumers some of whom state the use of false advertising. Photos of the Kardashian sisters in revealing outfits is also alleged to be misleading. Kim and Khloe have both tweeted that they have experienced 15 pound weight loss attributable to QuickTrim. Legal experts argue this is false advertising.
