The Advertising Standards Authority recently reviewed an advert after a complaint, "..whether the claims that Asyra Bio-Energetic device was effective in screening the health conditions referenced were misleading and could be substantiated."

"Carolyn Stevens did not respond to the ASA鈥檚 enquiries."

"The ASA noted that the ad included a number of claims, such as 鈥淭he Asyra can be used for screening for a multitude of issues and imbalances in your system鈥?and 鈥淭he Asyra will identify issues and help with the start of a balancing, desensitisation or detoxification protocol鈥? and listed a number of health conditions, including allergies, nutrition levels, infections, alcohol addiction and others. We considered those claims were medical claims for the Asyra Pro device used by Carolyn Stevens that it was effective in screening and diagnosing the various health conditions listed in the ad.

The CAP Code required that medicinal or medical claims and indications were made only for a medicinal product that was licensed by the MHRA or under the auspices of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) or for a CE-marked medical advice. We had not seen any documentary evidence to demonstrate that the Asyra Pro Bio-Energetic device used by Carolyn Stevens was a CE-marked medical device and because of that, no medical claims could be made for the product. In addition, we had not been provided with any documentary evidence to substantiate the claims that the device could be used to diagnose the conditions listed in the ad."

Says it all really. Steer clear.
