Chr. Hansen’s health claim has been cleared for use on the dietary supplement, UrexTM by Korean customers

THE Korean Ministry of Food & Drug Safety (MFDS) has approved Chr. Hansen's health claim related to Urex?, a dietary supplement that can help maintain a normal vaginal microbiota. This supplement

contains the company’s Probio-Tec^? strains named RC-14^? and GR-1^?.

Korean customers may now use the health claim, “Urex? can help vaginal health by increasing lactic acid bacteria” on product packaging and in promotion material.

“Urex is the first and only probiotic product with an approved health claim within vaginal health in Korea, an important growth market in Chr. Hansen’s Asia-Pacific region. The Korean MFDS’s health claim approval has already generated many inquiries from prospects and we expect it to drive growth in our sales of Urex in Korea and in Asia-Pacific in general,” said Lasse Nagell, vice president, Sales & Marketing Human Health & Nutrition, Chr. Hansen.

Attendees of Vitafoods Asia will have the opportunity to discuss the Urex dietary supplement with Chr. Hansen at booth no. 400.
