Law/Patents - Nutrition
English term or phrase: intended
"The statements contained herein have not been evaluated by the FDA. The products discussed are not ***intended*** to diagnose, mitigate, treat, cure or prevent a specific disease or class of diseases. You should consult your family physician if you are experiencing a medical problem."

Translation:

"Estas declaraciones no han sido evaluadas por la Administración para el Control de Alimentos y Medicamentos de los Estados Unidos (FDA). Estos productos no ***intentan*** diagnosticar, mitigar, tratar, curar o prevenir una enfermedad específica o clase de enfermedades. Usted debe consultar a su médico si está experimentando problemas de salud".

My doubt here is with the word "intended". "...no han sido creados/están diseñados/destinados ..." I am looking for a more accurate translation here and would appreciate your help friends! Thank you!

Explanation:
Estoy de acuerdo con Hugo en la traducción de "intend" por "pretender". Sin embargo, yo lo redactaría de otra forma, pues creo que un producto no puede pretender nada. Son las personas que están detrás del producto las que no pretenden diagnosticar, mitigar, ...
