FSSAI allows use of names of pro-biotic strains on labels till further order.
Feb 08, 2022
The FSSAI has allowed FBOs to use old or new names of pro-biotic strains on the labels till further order. This will help the food businesses to use old labels without any apprehension of action from the food authority.
The order reads, 'After due consideration of the representations, it has been decided to allow the use of either old, or new names of pro-biotic strains for the product packaging till further order, as it does not compromise with the safety of food products and also allowed by other regulators across the globe.'
The stakeholder FBOs gave a representation before the FSSAI to permit the use of either old or new names of pro-biotic strains for the product packaging as the taxonomy of several pro-biotic microorganisms specified under Schedule VII of the FSS (health supplements, nutraceuticals, food for special dietary use, food for special medical purpose, functional food and novel food) First Amendment Regulations 2021 have been revised in line with the global updating in their names.
And the amendment made provision that these organisms may be used either singly or in combination but shall be declared on the label with full information and have to be non-GMO.
It is pertinent to mention that the regulation in question was notified in September 2021 and subsequent direction in October made the provisions that the timeline for compliance related to labelling requirement be extended to July 1, 2022.
