In the ensuing suit before the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Court_of_International_Trade" title="United States Court of International Trade">United States Court of International Trade</a>, Cadbury introduced expert testimony that Certs stimulate the flow of saliva, thus flushing bad odors from the mouth, and that its flavors and oils mask bad breath. But the court ruled that, since Certs did not contain <a href="/wiki/Antibacterial" class="mw-redirect" title="Antibacterial">anti-bacterial</a> ingredients, they were, indeed, simply a candy mint. This ruling was, however, overturned at the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Court_of_Appeals_for_the_Federal_Circuit" title="United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit">Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit</a>, making Certs legally a breath mint.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span
