Background

Have you ever wondered how foods get to carry health claims like 'reduces blood cholesterol' or 'contributes to the normal function of the immune system' in the European Union? It's not a simple process. The EU has specific rules and a detailed authorization system to ensure all health claims are scientifically proven and easy for consumers to understand.

This webinar is for anyone interested in learning about this topic. We'll provide a clear overview of the regulations, explain the different types of claims, and introduce the process for getting a claim approved.
