Food Supplement Registration in Denmark

• In Denmark, food supplements are regulated by the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration (Fødevarestyrelsen). The regulations governing food supplements are aimed at ensuring their safety, quality, and proper labeling to protect consumers.

Key aspects of food supplement registration in Denmark include:

• Safety and Quality: Food supplements must meet safety standards set by the Danish government. This includes ensuring that ingredients used are safe for consumption and that manufacturing processes adhere to good manufacturing practices (GMP).
• Labeling Requirements: Labels on food supplements must accurately reflect the contents of the product. This includes listing all ingredients, their quantities, recommended dosage, and any warnings or precautions. Labels must also comply with Danish and EU regulations regarding health claims and nutritional information.
• Notification and Approval: In Denmark, food supplements must be notified to the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration before they can be marketed. This notification process helps authorities monitor the types of supplements available in the market.
• Prohibition of Misleading Claims: Danish regulations prohibit food supplement manufacturers from making misleading claims about the benefits of their products. Any health claims must be supported by scientific evidence and approved by the relevant authorities.
• Maximum Limits: Some vitamins and minerals may have maximum limits established to prevent excessive intake, which could pose health risks. These limits are outlined in Danish regulations and must be adhered to by supplement manufacturers.
