29 Jul 2014 --- Last week, the EFSA panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies (NDA) published a scientific opinion on the proposed use of 4 mg algal astaxanthin in dairy products and fruit drinks. The panel concluded that the safety of algal astaxanthin at the proposed use and dosage has not been established. AstaReal note that “this opinion does not affect our ability to market dietary supplements, it only delays our entry into a new market area.”
