Anyone who makes that sort of claim about their product - whether it be a tested medicine, a homeopathic concoction, flat-out snake oil, or walnuts - is subject to having to prove their claims to the FDA. (Or, in Canada, to Health Canada.) This is to protect the consumer from so-called "medicines" that either don't do anything or actually do harm.

them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
