Food supplements are foods that are concentrated sources of nutrients such as vitamins and minerals and other substances with a physiological or nutritional effect. Since joining to the European Union, the distribution of food supplements in Hungary has not been bound to pre-market authorisation; products can be placed to the market after a formal notification at the National Institute for Food and Nutrition Science. Distribution, ingredients, and all information on the label are determined by numerous regulations but at the same time, the lack of harmonized legislation at Community level may cause a lot of problems. In the second part of the review authors introduce the evaluation process of components from the point of view of nutritional and physiological effects and the possible role of food supplements in human nutrition.
食品补充剂是富含维生素、矿物质等营养素以及其他具有生理或营养作用的物质的食品。自加入欧盟以来,匈牙利的食品补充剂分销无需进行上市前批准;产品在向国家食品和营养科学研究所正式通报后即可投放市场。分销、成分以及标签上的所有信息都由众多法规规定,但与此同时,共同体层面缺乏统一的立法可能会引发诸多问题。在综述的第二部分,作者从营养和生理作用的角度介绍了成分的评估过程以及食品补充剂在人类营养中的可能作用。
