EU CBD Pause Won’t Affect Thousands of Products on UK Shelves
- 2 years ago
#British #health regulators say that thousands of #CBD products currently on store shelves in the #UnitedKingdom aren’t in immediate danger of removal because #European Union officials are delaying plans to authorize CBD-infused foods and #dietary supplements. Officials with the #UK’s Food Standards Agency told Nutraingredients that this week’s decision by the #EU’s European #Food Safety Authority won’t affect roughly 5,980 CBD products with temporary permission to be sold while the #FSA reviews safety information about them.
The FSA is combing through about 900 safety dossiers submitted by CBD manufacturers, which covers dietary supplements and functional foods. For now, the FSA recommends that #adults limit CBD consumption to 70 milligrams per day. Delays in the U.K. safety review have prompted some members of #Parliament to suggest overhauling the nation’s process for authorizing CBD products.
