Food Additives Permitted for Direct Addition to Food for Human Consumption; Vitamin D2 and Vitamin D3; Final Rule

The Food and Drug Administration is amending the food additive regulations to expand the safe uses of vitamin D2 as a nutrient supplement in edible plant-based beverages intended for use as milk alternatives and in edible plant-based yogurt alternatives and vitamin D3 as a nutrient supplement in milk at levels higher than those currently permitted. It is taking this action in response to a food additive petition filed by Dean Foods Company and WhiteWave Foods Company.
This rule is effective 18 July 2016.
