hello friends


Health Products:

Under the Health Products Regulations, which came into effect on January 1, 2004, health products (NHPs) are defined as:

* Vitamins and minerals
* Herbal remedies
* Homeopathic medicines
* Traditional medicines such as traditional Chinese medicines
* Probiotics, and
* Other products like amino acids and essential fatty acids.

HPs must be safe for consideration as over-the-counter products and not require a prescription to be sold. Products requiring a prescription will continue to be regulated under the Next link will take you to another Web site Food and Drug Regulations.
