The advertiser must be able to substantiate and authenticate these and all other product claims to Avita and to site users upon request. In these instances, the definitions in the following sections will apply.
6.2. Definitions
Whole Foods:
Food in its natural state is referred to as whole food. These foods are complex sources as found in nature with all or most of their nutritional components left intact. These foods undergo minimal processing in order to retain these nutritional components. Whole foods are not adulterated or modified with flavor enhancers or artificial colors.
Natural Foods:
According to the National Nutritional Foods Association (NNFA), neither the FDA nor the Federal Trade Commission have defined the term “natural” for labeling or advertising purposes. However, labeling and advertising statements and claims are required to be truthful and non-misleading, under pain of FDA or FTC regulatory action. A product labeled or advertised as “natural” should contain, primarily all natural ingredients. The presence of a synthetic chemical in the formulation would technically raise a regulatory issue. Foods designated as natural contain no artificial preservatives, sweeteners, colors, flavors, synthetic pesticides, fungicides, drug residues or growth hormones. These foods are not irradiated and neither ripening agents nor fumigants are used. Additionally, these foods are not bleached or bromated. They are processed, packaged, transported and stored to retain maximum nutritional value and be environmentally friendly.
Organic Foods:
According to Organic Trade Association (OTA), certified organic foods are grown and processed in compliance with stringent industry standards.
All methods and materials used on certified organic farms and processing facilities are inspected annually by a third-party certification organization. When national regulations for the organic industry are implemented, the government will appoint certification organizations who will inspect farms and processors.
