Julie Scott, European regulatory manager, National Starch Food Innovation, said: “These health claims were among a relatively small number that were approved by the European Commission on 25 May 2012. Indeed, 1600 other claims were rejected, demonstrating the strength of science and clinical data needed to succeed in the European regulatory landscape today.
“By ensuring the scientific integrity of all health claims, the EFSA rulings will bring clarity to consumers’ purchasing decisions, giving them the peace of mind that a product will do exactly what on-pack messaging says it will.”
