Regulatory Pathways of Food Ingredients in the USA: GRAS, NDI, FAP, and CAP
In the US, safety is the core of the regulation compliance for food ingredients. Currently, there are four main pathways for food ingredient compliance in the US as follows: Food Additive Petition (FAP), Color Additive Petition (CAP), independent conclusion of Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status, and the Dietary Ingredient (DI) pathway. The first three pathways apply to conventional food ingredients, while the DI pathway applies to a separate category of food ingredients that have their own unique regulatory framework, in which DIs are defined and categorized as new DIs (NDI) or pre-DSHEA DIs. CIRS Group has conducted a brief analysis of the key points of these four pathways, aiming to enable entrepreneurs to select their optimal compliance pathway based on the characteristics of products.
