Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies was asked to provide a scientific opinion on a list of health claims pursuant to Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. This opinion addresses the scientific substantiation of health claims related to various food(s)/food constituent(s) and "energy and vitality", "invigoration of the body", "general health", "rejuvenation", "tonic", "stimulant" and "metabolic benefits". The scientific substantiation is based on the information provided by the Member States in the consolidated list of Article 13 health claims and references that EFSA has received from Member States or directly from stakeholders. The claimed effects refer to "energy and vitality", "invigoration of the body", "general health", "rejuvenation", "tonic", "stimulant" and "metabolic benefits". The Panel considers that the claimed effects are not sufficiently defined. As no further details were provided in the proposed wordings or the clarifications provided by Member States, no specific claimed effects could be defined. The Panel considers that these claimed effects are general and non-specific and do not refer to any specific health claim as required by Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006.

Abstract
Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies was asked to provide a scientific opinion on a list of health claims pursuant to Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. This opinion addresses the scientific substantiation of health claims related to various food(s)/food constituent(s) and "energy and vitality", "invigoration of the body", "general health", "rejuvenation", "tonic", "stimulant" and "metabolic benefits". The scientific substantiation is based on the information provided by the Member States in the consolidated list of Article 13 health claims and references that EFSA has received from Member States or directly from stakeholders. The claimed effects refer to "energy and vitality", "invigoration of the body", "general health", "rejuvenation", "tonic", "stimulant" and "metabolic benefits". The Panel considers that the claimed effects are not sufficiently defined. As no further details were provided in the proposed wordings or the clarifications provided by Member States, no specific claimed effects could be defined. The Panel considers that these claimed effects are general and non-specific and do not refer to any specific health claim as required by Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006.
