Taiwan's Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) plans to regulate 17 functional ingredients, including lutein and probiotics. Under the new rules, companies must register their products and comply with labeling requirements before making any functional claims. This move aims to curb misleading marketing of general food products as health foods, referencing international standards from Japan, South Korea, and the EU.
