| description | Following an application from Naturex SA, submitted pursuant to Article 13(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 via the Competent Authority of France, the Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on the scientific substantiation of a health claim related to Pacran® and defence against bacterial pathogens in the lower urinary tract. The food that is the subject of the claim is Pacran®. The Panel considers that the food, Pacran®, which is the subject of the claim is sufficiently characterised in relation to the claimed effect. The Panel considers that defence against bacterial pathogens in the lower urinary tract is a beneficial physiological effect. One human study from which conclusions could be drawn for the scientific substantiation of the claim showed no effect of Pacran® on defence against bacterial pathogens in the lower urinary tract. The Panel concludes that a cause and effect relationship has not been established between the consumption of Pacran® and defence against bacterial pathogens in the lower urinary tract. |
