- H5: Consumer beliefs regarding the effectiveness of a dietary supplement in preventing treating
or curing a particular disease are lower when the scientific certainty disclaimer is used on the package
label than when it is not used on the package label.
- Contrasts between the disease claim only and the short/long scientific evidence disclaimer
show no difference in consumer disease beliefs for both garlic (all p's > 0.50) and herb X (all p' > 0.25)
- No Support for H5
