FDA warns against selling 'medicinal drinks' without approval, cites Prophet Adom Kyei-Duah's sobolo

He specifically addressed the sobolo drink associated with Prophet Stephen Adom Kyei-Duah, founder of Believers Worship Centre, noting that it has not been registered as a medicine with the FDA and lacks a scientific basis for such approval. Dr. Kusi emphasized that while the FDA does not regulate products sold as ordinary beverages or those claiming spiritual benefits, any product promoted for medicinal purposes must undergo scientific evaluation and receive formal FDA approval before being sold or advertised with health claims. He clarified that if a drink is claimed to heal ailments, it must be evaluated by the FDA, otherwise, it constitutes an illegal act that the authority will address.
