BEYUNA MAGNESIUM

According to EC Directives 2000/13, 2003/89, 2005/26, 2005/63, 2006/142, 2007/68 and updates.

GMO-Free

Based on various scientific studies, Beyuna has selected a number of magnesium types that are well absorbed by the body. Beyuna adheres to the Clean Label principle, which means that the supplement does not contain fillers, additives or colourings.

Beyuna Magnesium is in a vegetable capsule. Beyuna Magnesium is of pure, high quality and is 100% natural and GMO-free.

There are different types of magnesium available that vary in absorbability. A pure mineral such as magnesium cannot be absorbed by the body, but requires an additive. Absorption therefore relies on the additive linked to the magnesium.

Beyuna has looked at the best additives that are bound to magnesium to ensure optimum absorption, also known as the bioavailability of a substance. The elemental content says something about the amount of 'pure' mineral that the supplement contains. Beyuna uses only organic substances as additives.

The numbers after magnesium in the list of ingredients are the amounts of elemental magnesium per compound. For example in the compound ATA magnesium, the compound consists of 16.25 mg of elemental magnesium.

Unfortunately, the RDA refers to elemental magnesium and does not consider the compound and the level of bioavailability.

European legislation was adopted in 2012 relating to nutrition and health claims made on foods (the Commission Regulation). The Commission Regulation is a European Regulation (432/2012) which sets out what information may be provided regarding the effect of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients on products (on packaging, labels, websites, advertisements, in brochures, books and on social media).

Only approved health claims may be made. These claims provide information about the effect a particular ingredient has on health. Approved health claims are recommended by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). For many years, it was possible for companies to submit health claims, but unfortunately very few of them were approved. Because many of the claims submitted were rejected, some nutrients have no approved claims which relate to them.

Food supplements are not a medication and may only promote health. This means medical claims can never be made in relation to supplements.
We all enjoy free speech, and it is possible to make claims about the effect of certain nutrients in articles and brochures and on websites, but in this case there should be no advertising of a specific product or any reference made to it.

The Inspection Board for the Promotion of Health Products

Public advertising of self-care medicines, medical (self-care) aids or health products is in the interest of public health, though it does require clear regulations. Industry, the media and advertisers recognise their social responsibilities, and have created rules with which public advertising must comply.

These rules are drawn up by the Dutch Foundation for Monitoring Medicinal Product Advertising (KOAG) and the Dutch Foundation for the Promotion of Health Products (KAG). On behalf of the KOAG and KAG, the Inspection Board monitors the public advertising of medicines, medical (self-care) aids and health products.

Companies can have their claims verified by KOAG KAG. If a claim is verified and permitted, the company is given an approval number. This can be found on claims made in, e.g., brochures.
