The Panel concludes that the use of copper bisglycinate chelate as a source for copper added for nutritional purposes to food supplements, and of calcium bisglycinate chelate and magnesium bisglycinate chelate as sources for respectively calcium and magnesium added for nutritional purposes to foods for particular nutritional uses and food supplements, and of zinc bisglycinate chelate when used as a source for zinc in foods intended for the general population (including food supplements) and foods for particular nutritional uses, is not of safety concern As regards chromium glycinate nicotinate complex, due to lack of information on the specific identity of its components, the Panel is unable to reach a conclusion on the safety of this source and on the bioavailability of chromium from this source.

Abstract
The Panel concludes that the use of copper bisglycinate chelate as a source for copper added for nutritional purposes to food supplements, and of calcium bisglycinate chelate and magnesium bisglycinate chelate as sources for respectively calcium and magnesium added for nutritional purposes to foods for particular nutritional uses and food supplements, and of zinc bisglycinate chelate when used as a source for zinc in foods intended for the general population (including food supplements) and foods for particular nutritional uses, is not of safety concern As regards chromium glycinate nicotinate complex, due to lack of information on the specific identity of its components, the Panel is unable to reach a conclusion on the safety of this source and on the bioavailability of chromium from this source.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
