2.1. Naturalne funkcje układu odpornościowego (ID 990)

The claimed effect is “natural defences/immune system”. The Panel assumes that the target population is the general population.
The claimed effect is not sufficiently defined and no further details were given in the proposed wording or the clarifications provided by Member States. Given the multiple roles of the immune system, the specific aspect of immune function that is the subject of the claim needs to be specified, but it has not been indicated in the information provided.
The Panel considers that the claimed effect is general and non-specific, and does not refer to any specific health claim as required by Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006.
