According to recent legislation, food supplements are foodstuffs with the purpose of supplementing normal diet. Food supplements are concentrated sources of nutrients such as vitamins and minerals and other substances with a physiological or nutritional effect. In Hungary, marketing of food supplements has not been bound to pre-market authorization since joining to the European Union. The food business operator, who is responsible for production or distribution of the product, must notify it at National Institute for Food and Nutrition Science latest at the time when the product has been placed on the market and it can be distributed simultaneously. Distribution, ingredients, and all those information which appear on the label are determined by numerous regulations and prescriptions but at the same time the lack of harmonized legislation at certain places may cause a lot of problems on Community level. The first part of the study shows the laws and regulations influencing the distribution and ingredients of food supplements, while the main target of the second part is to introduce the evaluation process of components from nutritional and physiological point of view, and the role played by the food supplements in nutrition.
根据最近的立法,食品补充剂是旨在补充正常饮食的食品。食品补充剂是维生素、矿物质等营养素以及其他具有生理或营养作用的物质的浓缩来源。在匈牙利,自加入欧盟以来,食品补充剂的销售无需进行上市前授权。负责产品生产或分销的食品经营者必须最迟在产品上市且可同时分销时通知国家食品和营养科学研究所。分销、成分以及标签上出现的所有这些信息都由众多法规和规定所确定,但同时某些地方缺乏统一的立法可能会在共同体层面引发诸多问题。研究的第一部分展示了影响食品补充剂分销和成分的法律法规,而第二部分的主要目标是从营养和生理角度介绍成分的评估过程以及食品补充剂在营养中的作用。
