Synopsis
The current regulatory framework mandates the consideration of scientific evidence for food safety and health impacts, with pre-market review serving as the primary mechanism for health claim substantiation. However, the lack of alignment among Asian jurisdictions, unlike in more advanced countries, leaves stakeholders and scientists unaware of potential shortcomings in their R&D designs, failing to meet regulatory expectations. This fragmentation can result in substantial financial losses and missed opportunities for health improvements, particularly concerning the rising Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) in the region.
