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 various foods/food constituents and ―immune function/immune system‖, ―contribution to body defences against external agents‖, stimulation of immunological responses, reduction of inflammation, increase in renal water elimination, treatment of diseases, and increasing numbers of gastro-intestinal microorganisms. 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.
