Sconfitta la Muscle Marketing !!!
Degussa BioActives filed a Complaint on February 15, 2002 against Muscle Marketing USA, Inc. asking the federal U.S. district court in Los Angeles, California, to force Muscle Marketing to stop making false claims about powdered creatine, a nutritional supplement that enhances exercise performance. In its Complaint, Degussa BioActives had identified what it regards as scientifically false and deceptive statements and claims made by Muscle Marketing USA about creatine powder.
Degussa BioActives is pleased to announce that it has been fully successful in the litigation and that Muscle Marketing, its affiliates, and anyone acting in participation with them have been precluded, by court injunction, from making such statements and claims about creatine powder and its stability, safety, and effectiveness.
An Injunction was entered by the Court on January 13, 2004, providing as follows:
"In the United States District Court for the Central District of California
Case no. 02-01390 RGK (Ex)
Degussa BioActives Sales US, Inc., Formerly Known as Traco Labs, Inc. Plaintiff v. Muscle Marketing USA Inc., et al., Defendants.
Order for Permanent Injunction
It is hereby ordered, adjudged and decreed that Defendants Muscle Marketing USA, Inc. and Mostafa Omar, their officers, agents, servants, employees, consultants, or commercial affiliates and all those persons in active concert or participation with them (collectively, "MMUSA"), be and they are hereby permanently enjoined and restrained throughout the world from the following:
Making, publishing, or in any way disseminating, or causing others to do so, statements, articles and/or advertising, including website publications, disparaging, characterizing, commenting on, or referring in any way to creatine powder products, including their safety and efficacy. MMUSA shall make no statements comparing its creatine products, including creatine serum product(s), with any creatine powder products, including without limitation CREAPURETM creatine monohydrate powder marketed by Degussa BioActives U.S., L.L.C., with respect to safety, efficacy, side effects, or in any other respect.

Degussa BioActives is gratified that the above Injunction was issued with world-wide reach and is binding not only on Muscle Marketing USA and Omar but all those acting in concert or participation with them.

Degussa BioActives will continue to protect consumers from deceptive and misleading statements
