Hi DQ,

The International Alliance of Dietary Food Supplement Associations which is as yet not infiltrated by pharma as far as I aware has this to say on developments...........

"IADSA Chairman Byron Johnson said: “We support the results of the work on these issues and support their adoption. The drafts finally agreed endorse a number of comments made by IADSA, and we welcome the progress that has been made.”

The GOOD news is that the adopted recommendations on the Scientific Substantiation of Health Claims NOW takes into account the TOTALITY of the available relevant scientific data and weighing of the evidence for substantiating a health claim, RATHER THAN placing primary importance on human intervention trials........at prohibitive and now non-existent cost.

IADSA also welcomed the adoption of the Nutritional Risk Analysis Principles, which it described as “a solid framework for the potential future application of the risk assessment method by Codex for the use of vitamins, minerals and other substances in food supplements”.

Chrisb1.
