Banning Misleading Advertising

In Hong Kong, proposed legislation would ban all misleading "health food" advertising. Traditionally, as in most parts of the world, health food supplements like breast enhancing drinks, natural weight loss pills or herbal high blood pressure remedies have been ignored by the medical and legal establishments in Hong Kong. Does this represent a new direction? Will we see more regulation in the industry in the US? We'll have to wait and see how the Undesirable Medical Advertisements law in Hong Kong actually works. via Diet Blog.
