The food constituent that is the subject of the health claims is pantothenic acid which is a well recognised nutrient and is measurable in foods by established methods.
Pantothenic acid occurs naturally in foods and is authorised for addition to foods (Annex I of Regulation (EC) No 1925/20066 and Annex I of Directive 2002/46/EC7). This evaluation applies to pantothenic acid naturally present in foods and to those forms authorised for addition to foods (Annex II of Regulation (EC) No 1925/2006 and Annex II of Directive 2002/46/EC).
The Panel considers that the food constituent, pantothenic acid, which is the subject of the health claims is sufficiently characterised.
2.4. Utrzymanie prawidłowego stanu skóry (ID 2878)
The claimed effect is “skin care”. The Panel assumes that the target population is the general population.
