WASHINGTON (AP) - An ad campaign that suggested milk can help people lose weight is ending, the Federal Trade Commission told a doctors' group that had complained.
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine contended the weight loss claims were false and misleading. The group, in a 2005 petition, asked the commission to order a halt to the dairy advertisements.
The agency did not take that step, but said in a letter to the committee that the groups behind the ads planned to end them.
