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 partially hydrolysed guar gum and increase in satiety, maintenance or achievement of a normal body weight, maintenance of normal blood concentrations of triglycerides, maintenance of normal blood cholesterol concentrations, reduction of post-prandial glycaemic responses and maintenance of normal blood glucose concentrations. 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 claim is partially hydrolysed guar gum. The Panel considers that partially hydrolysed guar gum is sufficiently characterised.

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 partially hydrolysed guar gum and increase in satiety, maintenance or achievement of a normal body weight, maintenance of normal blood concentrations of triglycerides, maintenance of normal blood cholesterol concentrations, reduction of post-prandial glycaemic responses and maintenance of normal blood glucose concentrations. 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 claim is partially hydrolysed guar gum. The Panel considers that partially hydrolysed guar gum is sufficiently characterised.
