Regulating Health Foods: Policy Challenges and Consumer Conundrums

Edward Elgar

"Regulating Health Foods' is likely to be of much interest to food researchers and regulators as well as many members of the public. The focus on regulation and policy for health foods (functional food, supplements, and nutraceuticals) is highly topical. The different regulatory policies for health foods that apply in numbers of high income and emerging nations are outlined and compared. Using concepts from social sciences (economics in particular), implications of these different approaches for both consumers and business are identified and discussed. The book should be a very useful addition to the literature on health foods.' - Michele Veeman, University of Alberta, Canada 'The supply of foods marketed as healthy and functional is guided by both consumer demand and regulatory regimes. While many texts have attempted to document such drivers over the past decade or so, this volume provides a refreshing, concise yet comprehensive catalogue that includes trends in developed and emerging markets for health foods. Well resourced, including an annotated bibliography of many of the supporting studies summarized in the text, this book provides a good starting point for any researcher interested in understanding potential policy challenges and consumer conundrums.' - Neal Hooker, John Glenn School of Public Affairs, The Ohio State University, US 'Regulating Health Foods systematically organizes the widely disparate definitions, regulations, and policies used internationally to govern functional foods, supplements and nutraceuticals, and does so from the standpoint of the industry and its regulators. Food scientists, regulators, and industry professionals will especially appreciate its detailed international perspective.' - Marion Nestle, New York University, US
