Denmark Revises Limits for 4 Key Nutrients in Food Products Effective May 2025
On April 14, 2025, Denmark’s Veterinary and Food Administration issued Notice No. 69900, unveiling draft changes to regulations involving the addition of vitamins, minerals, and select functional ingredients in food. The public comment period runs through May 12, 2025.
Among the key proposals, breakfast cereals will see a new upper limit of 8.8 mg of Vitamin E and 10.2 mg of iron per 100g, refining previous or undefined values. For cookies and biscuits, a cap of 52.5 mg of Vitamin C per 100g is being introduced.
A notable update includes iodine in salt used for soy sauce, now limited to 2970 µg per 100g, and β-D-glucan from oats in dietary supplements, which is set at 1100 mg.
These proposed changes reflect Denmark’s ongoing efforts to align nutritional additives with updated health risk assessments. Industry stakeholders are encouraged to submit feedback before the deadline.
