Are health foods the same as health products?
Do not confuse "health food" and "health products"
Is "Health Food" the same as "Health Food"? In the face of various “health products†and “health foods†that exist on the market, it is absolutely necessary for consumers to learn to identify what is legitimate health food.
The so-called “health products†is a folk title that refers to a variety of products that claim to have health care functions on the human body, including some common foods.
The biggest difference between “health products†and “health foods†is whether the health functions claimed by the products are in line with national regulations, and are registered and approved by the national administrative department.
There are many “health products†on the market. The claimed health care function is even more surprising. Many of them have already surpassed the scope allowed by the state, and even disguised as medicines, have greatly promoted the treatment of diseases. The legitimate health foods are subject to national laws and regulations. After certain scientific evaluations, the publicity of their functional roles is also strictly limited.
Tips>>>Health Food
Article 51 of the Food Safety Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that the state shall exercise strict supervision over foods that claim to have specific health care functions. The relevant supervisory and administrative departments shall perform their duties in accordance with law and assume responsibility. The specific management measures shall be prescribed by the State Council. Foods claiming to have specific health care functions must not cause any acute, sub-acute or chronic hazards to the human body. Their labels and instructions must not involve disease prevention or treatment functions. The content must be true and should identify the appropriate population, unsuitable population, efficacy components, or landmarks. The composition and its content; the function and composition of the product must be consistent with the label and the instructions.
Due to the confusion between the two understandings, at present, the public has some misunderstandings about the standardized health foods, and even extends to questions about the state's relevant policies, and violates the existing scientific understanding.
