beverages to stop force claims that their beverages are medicinal.Some companies and media houses through Live Presenter Mention
claim that these beverages are medicinal; the FDA says it’s going to put ban on
live presenter mention on alcoholic beverages coming next year.
Kwasi Essien is Chief Regulating officer of the Food and Drugs;
he advised that if the alcoholic products were administered as a beverage it
shouldn’t be sold as such and not medicine.

but hide behind artificial flavors. If they continue to advertise their false
claims they shall deal with them accordingly.

stop selling Can products in the sun.
