This claim isn’t any different from the claims made on food supplement packages. “Supports your immunity” is a vacuous statement that makes no actual claims about what it really does. The difference, though, is this is a sugary cereal versus a bottle of pills sold at Whole Foods. But I don’t see a difference – all wishy-washy statements with no evidence to back up any real claims.

I don’t know about you, but anything I ingest with mountains of sugar LOWERS immunity. Happens every time I get real greedy.

I’m surprised the FDA isn’t attacking, especially the way they harassed Cheerios over the “lower cholesterol” claims.

People, The FDA has no control over the box art. Sue them for false advertising if you have to and MOVE ON! How much of its custonmer base can even read ‘immunity’. Its up to parents to use their brains.
