Wednesday September 15, 2021

The regulations around novel foods and nutritive substances can be confusing.

Do you struggle with any (or all) of the following questions:

•  How does the Code define and regulate novel foods and nutritive substances?
• How can you determine if your food or ingredient is likely to be a novel food or a nutritive substance?
• Do you need to seek an opinion from the Advisory Committee on Novel Foods? 
• How to seek approval for permission to use a nutritive substance or novel food in ANZ.
•  How do you make sense of the FSANZ Application Handbook?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then join Jon Kite for this journey through the maze.
