CLAIMS

What the profile supports

NO AUTHORISED CLAIM ASSERTED

Energy, testosterone, vitality, cognition and detoxification wording requires separate claim verification.
A supplement-only Novel Food history conclusion does not authorise any health claim.

This profile does not identify a product-ready authorised EU health claim for shilajit.

Conditions that can change the answer

01
Keep intended use within food supplements when relying on the cited consultation; other food uses are novel.

Document identity and contaminant specifications before label review; ‘shilajit’ alone does not define a reproducible ingredient.

Confirm the current EU status and Polish product category for the exact material and intended use.
