Unsplash | Published: June 6, 2025
Claim Form Deadline: August 25, 2025
Payout: $3.00 - $80.00
Proof required: No
If you purchased Gerber Good Start Gentle infant formula in Florida or New York between October 10, 2011, and April 23, 2016, you may be owed up to $80.00 from a new class action settlement. Gerber Products Company has settled a class action over allegations that its marketing and labeling falsely claimed that some of its infant formula could reduce the risk of allergies. Gerber denies all allegations and wrongdoing, but has agreed to a settlement to avoid the costs of further litigation. Specifically, the Gerber class action lawsuit alleges that Gerber:
• False Advertising: Gerber allegedly falsely advertised GSG as having allergy-reducing properties and that this advertising was misleading and lacked scientific evidence.
• Misleading Claims: The lawsuit mentions claims that Gerber said their products could reduce the risk of developing allergies, particularly atopic dermatitis, and that the FDA endorsed GSG for this purpose.
• Lack of Scientific Evidence: The class action claims there's no scientific evidence that GSG can help with any condition except for eczema.
You may be eligible if you purchased Gerber Good Start Gentle infant formula (not for resale) in Florida or New York during the specified period. This excludes resale purchases and formula received via WIC or Food Stamps.
