Are natural products regulated by any governing bodies?

Asked a year ago
Yes, natural products are regulated by governing bodies to ensure their safety and quality. In many regions, including the United States, Canada, and the European Union, natural products fall under the jurisdiction of relevant regulatory bodies such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Health Canada, and the European Medicines Agency. These organizations establish guidelines and standards for the manufacture, labeling, and marketing of natural products. They require manufacturers to meet specific criteria regarding the sourcing of natural ingredients, production processes, and product testing to guarantee their safety and efficacy. Moreover, governing bodies continuously monitor and inspect these products, conduct safety assessments, and enforce any necessary actions, including product recalls or market withdrawals, to protect consumer health. Compliance with these regulations ensures that natural products meet standard quality and safety requirements before reaching the market.
