FSSAI Issues Notices to Food Companies Over Infant Nutrition Product Claims
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has issued notices to Nestle India, Zydus Wellness, Abbott Healthcare, Nutricia International, Mead Johnson Nutrition, and influencer Ira Fathima over alleged misleading claims in infant nutrition products and promotions. The regulator questioned claims about whey protein's digestibility, immune system support, and growth benefits in products like Lactogen Pro 1, Nan Excella Pro Stage 1, and Complan. FSSAI has sought scientific evidence to substantiate these claims and compliance explanations under food safety laws, including concerns over infant milk substitute promotions on social media.
