欧盟评估L-苏糖酸镁作为新型食品的安全性

 

　　经过评估，专家小组得出结论，在建议的使用条件下L-苏糖酸镁作为新型食品是安全的。部分原文报道如下：

 

　　Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on the safety of magnesium l-threonate as a novel food (NF) pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283 and to address the bioavailability of magnesium from this source in the context of Directive 2002/46/EC. The NF, produced by chemical synthesis, is intended to be used as new source for magnesium in food supplements at a maximum intake level of 3000 mg per day by adults, except for pregnant and lactating women. This dose corresponds to ~ 2730 mg l-threonate and 250 mg magnesium, which also corresponds to the UL for supplemental magnesium from readily dissociable magnesium salts. based on results obtained from a dissociation study, two rat studies and one human trial, the Panel considers that magnesium is bioavailable from the NF. The NF may contain up to 1% oxalic acid. The Panel considers that an additional exposure to oxalic acid, that is up to 30 mg daily from the NF, is not to be of safety concern. The Panel concludes that the NF is not nutritionally disadvantageous. In 2008, the EFSA ANS Panel concluded that a human intake of l-threonate of 2700 mg per day is safe. This intake is similar to the maximum intake of l-threonate from the NF under the maximum proposed uses, and the NDA Panel concurs with the ANS Panel that this intake is safe. The Panel considers that there are no concerns regarding the genotoxicity of the NF. The Panel concludes that the NF, Mg l-threonate, is safe under the proposed conditions of use. The Panel concludes that the NF is a source from which magnesium is bioavailable.
