Jillian Michaels has become a household name over the years, whipping some of America’s biggest losers into shape and turning into a reality TV star herself. Recently the 35-year-old health-nut released her own line of dietary supplements, but is now being sued for misleading advertising of her “worthless” product the Jillian Michaels Maximum Strength Calorie Control.
A couple of months ago, the celebrity trainer was crowned America’s Healthiest Body by Health Magazine, while a new season of the hit show The Biggest Loser kicking off at the beginning of the year. But in documents filed in the LA County Superior Court on February 9, Jillian is being held liable for “violation of the consumers legal remedies act”, “violation of unfair competition act”, and “untrue and misleading advertising” of one of her weight-loss supplements.
The class action alleges that after the reputation she’s developed as a hardcore fitness instructor, always stressing the importance of hard work and discipline, for Jillian to now advocate an easy way to drop the pounds by popping two pills is misleading.
“Contrary to everything Ms. Michaels has ever instructed, she and the companies peddling this product suggest it makes weight-loss effortless, falsely claiming ‘Take Two Capsules Before Main Meals And You Lose Weight. That’s It.’,” the lawsuit says. “Ms. Michaels knows better – taking two pills before eating does not miraculously cause weight loss.”
The companies also being sued are Thin Care International and Basic Care Research, both of whom helped Jillian develop and market her supplements.
Celeb Diet Doc…
Julian Michaels seems like a straight shooter so I was more than a little surprised by the fact she came out with her own line of diet pills. Let’s check the ingredients…

These diet pills are a caffeine stimulant type product which can lead to headaches, feeling jittery, heart palpitations and unfortunately little to no weight loss. Sorry Jillian but you sold out.. just calling it like I see it:)
Btw here are some less than stellar comments about Jullian’s diet pills. Granted they are from the GNC website and anonymous so take it for what it’s worth.

Gave me headaches for approximately one week. Did not see any results although I work out one hour a day.
I take two in the morning and it claims to have some caffeine in it, and I feel nothing. I took 3 this morning, still no effect.

I took the recommended dose for a month and worked out and all I got from it was migraines. I lost no weight. This pill is a joke
I believe the company that makes her products (Basic Research) has a very long history of lies and deception. (Relacore, Zantrex, Akavar, Strivectin, Tummy Gel etc.) In fact, I believe their CMO (Mitch) is banned from entering into the state of Florida because he has been convicted of mail fraud. They are nothing more than quick scam artists in my opinion.
Somebody necessarily lend a hand to make seriously posts I would state. That is the very first time I frequented your web page and thus far? I surprised with the research you made to create this actual submit incredible. Excellent task!
