Health Claim 1 article

A health claim links a food substance or component with the risk of a disease or health-related condition. In U.S. labeling, authorized and qualified health claims are evaluated under defined evidence standards and may require specific qualifying language. This category is narrower than general wellness or structure-function wording because disease-risk language is central to the claim. The substance, condition, evidence level, and exact phrasing all matter when interpreting the statement on a food or supplement.
