The Federal Trade Commission warned approximately 670 companies of the penalties they could face if they mislead consumers with unsubstantiated product claims, part of a continuing effort to re-establish the agency’s authority to penalize brands that engage in deceptive marketing practices.

The warnings follow a December update to the FTC’s guidance on advertising health-related products that emphasized the need for concrete substantiation for claims.

The new warnings aren’t limited to health claims and could apply to any marketers’ statements about the performance of their products, the agency said.

Marketers, brands, and manufacturers will likely review their practices to avoid risking penalties that could stretch into the hundreds of millions of dollar.

Did you know that the Chinese calendar goes in a cycle of 12 years?

Each year is symbolized by a different animal. In fact, 2023 is the year of the Rabbit!

This year, Chinese New Year starts on January 22. Chinese New Year isn’t only celebrated on one day.

Traditionally it is celebrated across 15 days and ends when there is a full moon!

The first three days are a public holiday in China and is when the main celebrations take place.

As China was a largely agrarian society, Chinese New Year was traditionally a time when people prayed to the harvest gods to ensure that their next year's harvest would be fruitful.

Today, this has changed but praying still plays a role as remembering your ancestors as a family is one of the more important activities during Chinese New Year.

It ends with the Lantern Festival, where people will release flying lanterns into the sky.

The Lantern Festival is all about reconciliation, peace, and forgiveness.

Chinese people do not traditionally make New Year’s Resolutions like we do in the west, however the beginning of any new year is a great time to reflect openly on the goals you’ve set.

How can you apply the ideas of reconciliation, peace, and forgiveness to your life in 2023?
