Celsius agreed to a $7.8 million class action lawsuit settlement to resolve claims it falsely marketed its beverages as containing “no preservatives.” No proof of purchase is needed for class members to benefit from the settlement.
The settlement benefits consumers who purchased any Celsius beverage (aka Celsius Live Fit), Celsius Heat, Celsius BCAA+Energy, Celsius with Stevia, Celsius On-The-Go powdered drinks and/or Flo Fusion powdered drinks between Jan. 1, 2015, and Nov. 23, 2022.
According to a class action lawsuit, Celsius falsely advertised its beverages as containing “no preservatives.” In reality, Celsius beverages allegedly contain citric acid — a flavoring agent and preservative. Plaintiffs in the false advertising class action lawsuit claim they wouldn’t have purchased Celcius drinks or paid as much for the products if they knew the truth.
Celsius hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to a $7.8 million class action settlement to resolve these allegations.
