The country’s apex food regulatory authority, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), has launched a scrutiny on health supplements in the market, focusing on products containing the ingredient S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine, News18 has learnt. The supplements made using S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine (SAMe) are known for potential health benefits in conditions like depression, liver health and arthritis. SAMe is a naturally occurring compound found in the cells of the human body. According to scientific journals, it helps produce and regulate hormones, maintains cell membranes and plays a crucial role in various biochemical processes. Hence, it is often used as a dietary supplement or medication. The authority has asked the food inspectors to check if such products are being sold with an FSSAI licence and “delist” them immediately. The authority has “rejected or revoked” all the applications seeking approval for selling health supplements using the molecule. However, FSSAI has noticed the sale of such products in the market and online platforms.
