Supplement Industry’s Plea to FDA on CBD Regulations: Awaiting Multiple Years is Way Too Long
June 7, 2019

Leaders in the industry pointed out that as soon as CBD and hemp-derived products obtain pertinent regulation, they too must hold the same legitimate requirements of all food and supplement products. Israelsen said these include:“New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) notifications, adherence to current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs), product labeling, serious adverse event reporting, and structure/function claims. Likewise, relevant FSMA requirements should be fully observed.”

Both Israelsen and Secrist discussed whether the Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) process is suitable for CBD and hem extracts. Secrist pointed out that NOW Foods does not believe that GRAS self-affirmations should be accepted by the agency in lieu of NDI notifications. Israelsen said:“The agency should also consider carefully whether self-affirmed GRAS without notification is an appropriate means of safety assessment for CBD/hemp extracts.”
