Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1513 of 28 July 2025 amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/2470 as regards the conditions of use and the additional labelling requirements of the novel food Calanus finmarchicus oil (Text with EEA relevance) |
| Summary |
The measure concerns an amendment of the conditions of use concerning astaxanthin esters to the level up to 0.25 % for all population groups in food supplements. The increase in the astaxanthin esters in oil from Calanus finmarchicus is expected to result in intakes of astaxanthin which, in combination with the intake of astaxanthin from the normal diet, are not expected to exceed, in any population group, the acceptable daily intake of 0.2 mg of astaxanthin/kg body weight established by the European Food Safety Authority. There is also a need to amend the labelling requirements of the novel food Calanus finmarchicus oil in line with the proposed conditions of use, as the statement laid down in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/966 that food supplements containing Calanus finmarchicus oil should not be consumed by children younger than 14 years if the ingredient contains ≥ 0.1 % astaxanthin does no longer apply
