Why should you view this Global Food Ingredients webinar?
Health claims on food labels and advertising can be a valuable tool in the marketing of foods to consumers in general or to specific populations. These claims are a representation that a relationship exists between consumption of a food and a consumer’s health. Many countries, states, and other worldwide jurisdictions have regulations in place to ensure that health claims are scientifically substantiated but the regulatory frameworks for using health claims in these markets differs between jurisdictions.
You should view this Novel Food Regulation webinar if you are:
- A food, beverage, or ingredient manufacturer
- A supplier that wants to market new ingredients in other countries
- Legal counsel that supports food, beverage, and ingredient manufacturers
