You’ve developed a product. You want to say it’s a "Source of Vitamin C" or "Vitamin C contribute to the normal function of the immune system". But the legislation around nutrition and health claims is a minefield⚠️ — and messing it up can get you in serious trouble.
If you're adding vitamins or minerals to your product, there's a right way to make a claim… and a wrong way that could land you with misleading labelling and compliance issues. 🧾
In this episode of The Food Lab Podcast, I walk you through:
✅ The only forms of vitamins and minerals allowed in your recipes
✅ How to calculate the right quantity of vitamin or mineral for nutrition & health claims
✅ Real-life examples
✅ The labelling requirements (yep, it’s not optional)
✅ Why shelf-life testing and overages are key to staying compliant
