Event Overview:

Supplements are regulated differently across the European Union, the US, and Canada. Although they may appear similar to consumers, they fall under distinct frameworks: food supplements in the EU, dietary supplements in the US, and natural health products (NHPs) in Canada. Each market has its own rules on ingredient eligibility and authorization, as well as on the claims or purposes that may be communicated. In this webinar, FoodChain ID experts will compare the requirements across these 3 markets. Through practical examples, they will explore key differences in ingredient status, authorization, and permitted claims or purposes—and show how the same ingredient or product can face very different regulatory expectations depending on the market.

Key Learning Objectives:

  • Navigate the key regulatory frameworks applicable to supplements in Europe, the US, and Canada.
  • Explore how supplement ingredients are classified and regulated across the 3 markets, including the key differences in regulatory requirements.
