Update: 19/05/2026
The EU is still proposing to harmonise food supplements. This will restrict the sale of lots of supplements for sale in Ireland.
Please join the campaign at saveoursupplements.ie and sign the petition here to help prevent this.
Why?
- Irish people live in a rainy Atlantic climate - that is vastly different to the Mediterranean! WE HAVE DIFFERENT NEEDS!
- It makes no sense to introduce legislation which will simply mean we have to pay more to get the same dose.
- There is no scientific basis for this. Thousands of people are dying from diet related issues, alcoholism and prescription drugs - FOOD SUPPLEMENTS ARE NOT THE ISSUE!
