P&G Challenges General Mills Claim On Cholesterol Cereal
Procter and Gamble argues General Mills Benefit cereal should be tested as a drug before health claims, urging FDA action to remove the product. General Mills says the cereal is a normal breakfast food with soluble fiber that can lower cholesterol, citing 1987 tests showing about a 9 percent drop with daily two ounce servings as part of a low fat diet. The FDA is reviewing P G s request and has indicated it will respond soon.
