Ad Review
BBB promotes truth in advertising by contacting advertisers whose claims conflict with the BBB Code of Advertising. These claims may come to our attention from our internal review of advertising, consumer complaints and competitor challenges. BBB asks advertisers to prove their claims, change ads to make offers more clear to consumers, and remove misleading or deceptive statements.
On June 16, 2022, BBB contacted Sean’s Essential regarding advertised claims for CBD products on their website: https://seansessential.com.
Specifically, BBB requested Sean’s Essentials
to substantiate or discontinue advertisements on their website alleging health
and disease-related claims regarding the potential benefits from CBD products,
including how CBD balms can assist with stress and pain relief pain.
BBB Code of Advertising states: The primary responsibility for truthful and non-deceptive advertising rests with the advertiser. Advertisers should be prepared to substantiate any objective claims or offers made before publication or broadcast. Upon request, they should present such substantiation promptly to the advertising medium or BBB.
BBB Code of Advertising also states claims relating to performance, energy savings, safety, efficacy, or results for a product or service should be based on recent and competent testing or other objective data.
BBB requested Sean’s Essentials to provide evidence from recent, reliable, and competent studies or other objective data which may include scientific findings, FDA approvals, clinical studies, or other objective data to substantiate the claim or discontinue the advertised claims to address BBB’s concern.
As of July 11, 2022, Sean’s Essentials failed to respond to BBB's requests to modify, substantiate or discontinue the advertised claims.
