Muscle Pharm Corporation (MSLPQ)

[CWS1987]

The facts actually don't differ at all. A single SKU from a single retailer was cited for containing DNP. MusclePharm claims that SKU was counterfeited and has presented evidence supporting that claim. The Dutch health authorities tested products from MusclePharm's official distributor and found no DNP. All of these are facts.

The fact that they haven't filed a lawsuit is not telling. Who would they sue? A minuscule online supplement seller in Poland and the fly-by-night counterfeiting operation that supplied them? What would the RoI be there?

The Stoppani lawsuit, which I agree is a waste of time and money, is not completely unreasonable. Stoppani is a big name and has significant cachet among hardcore bodybuilders. The fact that he has called into question the credibility of MSLP products represents a much more significant threat to their business than the counterfeiting of minor SKUs in markets that account for 1% of global sports nutrition sales.
