Question: What restrictions are there for advertising weight loss products?

Answer:

The Weight Management Code of Practice is a code applicable to all members of the Weight Management Council Australia Ltd. The restrictions for advertising weight loss products include that all advertising and marketing must be truthful and accurate and must not mislead consumers about the price, benefits or the need for any weight management products or services. The code also includes specific requirements for producers or suppliers of low energy diet products, meal replacements, and non-prescription and prescription medicines for weight loss.
