CHICAGO — A Chicago woman is suing and Indiana company, alleging the defendant made false claims about its product.
Mary Ann Nichols filed a class action lawsuit, individually and on behalf of a class, July 19 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against Naturmed, Inc., doing business as Institute for Vibrant Living, alleging breach of implied warranty, breach of warranty, fraud, and unjust enrichment.
According to the complaint, in February 2016, Nichols suffered financial damages as the result of being misled into buying the "All Day Energy Greens" product. The plaintiff alleges the defendant said its product was made of 100 percent natural ingredients but it actually contains excessive amounts of lead.
Nichols requests a trial by jury, appropriate damages, all legal fees and any other relief the court deems just. She is represented by attorneys Daniel A. Edelman, Cathleen M. Combs, James O. Latturner and Emiliya Gumin Farbstein of Edelman, Combs, Latturner & Goodwin LLC in Chicago.
