The proposed amendments would allow natural health products to make schedule A health claims, currently prohibited under the Food and Drugs Act (subsections 3(1) and 3(2)). Section 3 of the Food and Drugs Act prohibits the advertising of any food, drug, cosmetic or device to the general public as a treatment, preventative or cure for any of the diseases, disorders or abnormal physical states referred to in Schedule A. It also prohibits the sale to the general public of any food, drug, cosmetic or device that is labelled as a treatment, preventative or cure for any of the diseases, disorders or abnormal physical states referred to in Schedule A. The actual proposed changes to the wording of the Natural Health Products Regulations read: 5. The Regulations are amended by adding the following after section 103.1: Prohibited Advertising 103.2 A natural health product is exempt from subsection 3(1) of the Act with respect to its advertisement to the general public as a treatment or preventative for any of the diseases, disorders or abnormal physical states referred to in Schedule A to the Act. Prohibited Label or Advertisement Where Sale Made 103.3 A natural health product is exempt from subsection 3(2) of the Act with respect to its sale by a person where the natural health product is represented by label or is advertised by that person to the general public as a treatment or preventative for any of the diseases, disorders or abnormal physical states referred to in Schedule A to the Act.
