1.3. Stymulacja układu odpornościowego (ID 1479, 2064, 2075, 3139)

The claimed effects are "immune health" and "support of immunity". The Panel assumes that the target population is the general population.
From the clarifications provided by Member States, the Panel assumes that the claimed effects refer to the stimulation of various immunological responses, such as Th1 and Th2 balance, endothelial adhesion molecule regulation, increasing cytokine production, increasing numbers of macrophages, boosting natural killer cell activity, increasing concentrations of some immunocytes (immunocompetent cells), or stimulating components of cellular and humoral immunity.
The Panel considers that the evidence provided does not establish that stimulation of these immunological responses is a beneficial physiological effect per se.
The Panel concludes that a cause and effect relationship has not been established between the consumption of the food(s)/food constituent(s), which are the subject of the health claims, and a beneficial physiological effect related to stimulation of immunological responses.
