answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2023 answer text <p>The 1,001 critical days from conception to the age of two set the foundations for an individual’s cognitive, emotional and physical development.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2023 answer text <p>‘Probiotic’ is a term used to describe live bacteria used in food and food supplements. The current Regulation governs the use of nutrition and health claims on foods to protect consumers from being misled, by ensuring that any health claims made are backed by substantiated scientific evidence. Under the Regulation, the term ‘probiotic’ can be considered a non-specific health claim, as it suggests a relationship between the substance and health. It can already be used, providing it is accompanied by an approved health claim for the specific strain of live bacteria. No further assessment of merit has been undertaken although the Department continues to engage with industry on any potential future application for new assessment. To date the Department has not received any application for approving claims on specific strains of live bacteria. Companies would be required to include the specific strain in the ingredient listing.</p> answering member constituency Harborough answering member printed Neil O'Brien question first answered 21/07/2023 10:08:15 answering member 4679 label Biography information for Neil O'Brien
