"I have voted in favour of Amendments Nos 20-23, which were, however, rejected.
I did so because there is an obvious risk of what are at present counted as food supplements being redefined in future as medicines. This would make them less accessible in a situation in which many people supplement their food intake with food supplements in order to feel better and keep healthy.
The directive could therefore have a serious effect on prices in the event of food supplements being redefined as medicines. Higher costs for the individual consumer might make food supplements too expensive to buy. The result would be higher sickness rates and increasing costs to society."@en1
