substances:
(a) Dietary fiber and cardiovascular disease.
While I know you don't claim to cure/correct the disease "cardiovascular" is one of those words, you just stay away from. If I remember correctly, it's better to mix it with "exercise" (not a food) - Then you include cardiovascular health. |
again-
The FDA currently permits foods containing at least 51 percent whole grains by weight and are low in total fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol to carry a health claim, which links them to a reduced risk of heart disease and certain cancers.
