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 in relation to riboflavin (vitamin B2) and contribution to normal energy-yielding metabolism, contribution to normal metabolism of iron, maintenance of normal skin and mucous membranes, contribution to normal psychological functions, maintenance of normal bone, maintenance of normal teeth, maintenance of normal hair, maintenance of normal nails, maintenance of normal vision, maintenance of normal red blood cells, reduction of tiredness and fatigue, protection of DNA, proteins and lipids from oxidative damage, and maintenance of the normal function of the nervous system. 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 food constituent that is the subject of the health claims is riboflavin. The Panel considers that riboflavin is sufficiently characterised
