The purpose of this Proposal is to undertake an assessment of the compositional and labelling requirements for electrolyte drinks.
The name of this Proposal has changed to reflect a narrowed scope in response to submissions opposed to the
self-substantiation of health claims for electrolyte drinks. FSANZ has liaised with key stakeholders on a new approach to this work and is now revisiting the definition and purpose of electrolyte drinks and undertaking a scientific assessment of the evidence on their composition and efficacy.
