Hey Larry...do you have, or know of where to get, a complete list of all the new things Health Canada now allows to be sold as suppliments in Canada? Thanks so much again,
Jay

> JayYou know the government. They can't put such a simple list together. Here's a partial list:
http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hpfb-dgpsa/nhpd-dpsn/compliance_new_drug_list_e.htmlThat list doesn't totally agree with this one:
http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hpfb-dgpsa/nhpd-dpsn/overview_nhp_regs_e.html#21Each approved product must have a licensing monograph, so if there is a monograph, it's legal. There is also a phase-in period.
http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hpfb-dgpsa/nhpd-dpsn/monograph_compendium_list_e.htmlEach product must also meet purity standards. Here is the template for amino acids, as an example: http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hpfb-dgpsa/nhpd-dpsn/compendium_of_monographs_table_8_e.html
Here are some sample question in a FAQ:
http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hpfb-dgpsa/nhpd-dpsn/faq_consumers_e.htmlThere is a list of substances which cannot be imported by individuals under the three-month personal use clause (Schedule F, C.R.C. c.870), but the link keeps failing.
Otherwise, an approved substance will have an eight-digit code with the letters NPN (natural product number).
Sorry, I've yet to see the answer to your simple question anywhere. I'd love to see a list myself.
