FSA CBD NOVEL FOOD UPDATE
The FSA recently engaged with CBD market Stakeholders (of which TCC were one) to set out their intentions in respect of proposed changes to the manner in which the market will be regulated – particularly in respect of:
- the (forceful) encouragement for the reformulation or change to products so as to comply with what the FSA’s now terms its “safety reasons”, i.e.:
- ADI of 10mg/day for CBD; and,
- ADI 0.07mg/day for THC;
- any consequential amendments necessary to the Public List due to reformulation or changes to the products on the List; and,
- the (forceful) encouragement for labelling to identify the two maximum intakes above, as well as the age and breast-feeding declarations which all responsible Brands will already have been doing.
