Website description:
The websites offer, inter alia, unsafe foodstuffs. The websites are in Czech language. The offered products could be purchased for Czech crowns. Mostly food supplements of various categories (anabolisers and Nitrit Oxide supplements, fat burners, prohormones, SARMS) are offered here.
What to watch out for:
1) The inspection revealed and proved that an unsafe food is offered for sale on these websites. Namely, SWISS PHARMACEUTICALS YOHIMBINE HCL dietary supplement à 100 capsules is concerned; it is regarded as unsafe according to Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002 and therefore it must not be placed on the market. The use of products derived from the bark of Pausinystalia johimbe is prohibited under Regulation (EC) No. 1925/2006. Consumption of food containing yohimbine can lead to health damage.
2) The e-shop also offers further foodstuffs that could be other than safe for consumers due to the declared composition in the meaning of Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002; for example ANGEL DUST - SKULL LABS, RAMBO - Freedom Pharma, ROCKY ROUND 2 - Submission Science, Poison - Swiss Pharmaceuticals, Black Mamba - burner USA, TESTODROL - Swiss Pharmaceuticals are concerned.
3) Furthermore, the content of the website seriously violates requirements laid down by legislation as the presented food supplements and their ingredients are connected with information that attributes properties to foodstuffs or their ingredients which enable to prevent, mitigate or cure certain human diseases. This is therefore in contradiction to Article 7 (3) of Regulation (EU) No. 1169/2011. The operator also provides misleading information about selected food producers of selected foods. Some information mandatory pursuant to Regulation (EU) No. 1169/2011 is missing as well.
4) According to the Trade terms of the e-shop, company BIGMUSCLE FACTORY LTD, 11017805, 5 The Maples, Peterborough, based in United Kingdom, PE1 5YZ is the seller. According to https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/11017805, Mr. Arkadiusz Jacek Greda is the Executive Director of the company. However, this entity does not respond to CAFIA notices and fails to remove the detected illegal state.
5) The websites are registered outside the territory of the CR by a Slovak entity. According to database https://www.nic.cz/whois/domain/american-supplements.cz/, Mr. Vojtěch Kupča from Frýdek-Místek (Československé armády 488) is the holder of the domain name, who also does not respond to CAFIA notices and fails to remove the illegal state.
6) Webhosting of these websites is located in the USA.
7) With regard to the fact that the entity administrating the Internet domain in question is located outside the territory of the CR, activities of Czech supervisory bodies towards the operator of the websites are very limited.
