The following is an extract from the minutes of the Agriculture and Fisheries Council meeting, 28 and 29 June 2021:

The presidency presented a report on the state of play of the rules applying to the placing of food supplements on the EU market, and put forward a number of potential option for improving the current situation. In particular, it referred to the need to update the definition of food supplements, further harmonise the conditions of access to the market, and increase awareness among consumers and professionals of the risks of inappropriate or excessive intake of these products. Following this presentation, member states held an exchange of views with many expressing their support for the conclusions of the report.
