In,order to ensure a high level of protection for consumers,and to facilitate their choice, products put on the market,including imported products, should be safe and,adequately labelled. A varied and balanced diet is a prerequisite,for good health and single products have a relative,importance in the context of the total diet.,(2) Differences between national provisions relating to such,claims may impede the free movement of foods and,create unequal conditions of competition. They thus have,a direct impact on the functioning of the internal market.,It is therefore necessary to adopt Community rules on,the use of nutrition and health claims on foods.,(3) General labelling provisions are contained in Directive,2000/13/EC of the European Parliament and of the,Council of 20 March 2000 on the approximation of the,laws of the Member States relating to the labelling,presentation and advertising of foodstuffs (3). Directive,2000/13/EC generally prohibits the use of information,that would mislead the purchaser or attribute medicinal,properties to food.

It should not apply to claims which,are made in non-commercial communications, such as,dietary guidelines or advice issued by public health authorities,and bodies, or non-commercial communications,and information in the press and in scientific publications.,This Regulation should also apply to trade marks,and other brand names which may be construed as nutrition,or health claims.,(5) Generic descriptors (denominations) which have traditionally,been used to indicate a particularity of a class of,foods or beverages which could imply an effect on,human health, such as ‘digestive’ or ‘cough drops’, should,be exempted from the application of this Regulation.,(6) Non-beneficial nutrition claims are not covered by the,scope of this Regulation; Member States intending to,introduce national schemes relating to non-beneficial,nutrition claims should notify such schemes to the,Commission and to other Member States in accordance,with Directive 98/34/EC of the European Parliament and,of the Council of 22 June 1998 laying down a procedure,for the provision of information in the field of technical,standards and regulations and of rules on Information,Society services (4).,18.1.2007 EN Official Journal of the European Union L 12/3,(1) OJ C 110, 30.4.2004, p. 18.,(2) Opinion of the European Parliament of 26 May 2005 (OJ C 117 E,18.5.2006, p. 187), Council common position of 8 December 2005,(OJ C 80 E, 4.4.2006, p. 43) and Position of the European Parliament of,16 May 2006 (not yet published in the Official Journal).,Council Decision of 12 October 2006.,(3) OJ L 109, 6.5.2000, p. 29.
