Structure Function Claims: Key Milestone Achievements for Quatrefolic®

In 2024, our scientific and regulatory teams successfully collaborated to secure a record number of structure/function claims across several key product categories.
Recognized in the United States, structure/function claims describe the role of a nutrient or dietary ingredient in supporting the normal structure or function of the human body. These claims are essential in enhancing product differentiation, building consumer trust, and enabling more effective and compliant communication of health benefits on packaging.
The newly approved structure–function claims for various supplements and functional products highlight key health areas, including the general role of folate and its potential mechanisms of action, as well as its contributions to heart and vascular health, reproductive health, and brain and cognitive function.
These claims are grounded in robust scientific evidence, supported by a combination of clinical studies and comprehensive literature reviews, reflecting the company’s ongoing commitment to evidence-based communication.
Importantly, the claims are fully aligned with local regulatory requirements, specifically those set by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and built on previously recognized claims under EFSA regulations in Europe.
