Managing Health Claims for Foods in Canada: Towards a Modernized Framework
Health Canada is conducting a review of the current framework for the management of health claims for foods. The goal is to develop a modernized framework that will increase government efficiency and flexibility in the approval of health claims, while retaining high standards of oversight to ensure their credibility. Stakeholder consultations are planned to gain a wide range of perspectives on the identified issues and proposed actions.
