AHPA Adopts GMO Guidance Policy, Endorses SIDI

Editor, Nutraceuticals World

The American Herbal Products Association (AHPA), Silver Spring, MD, Board of Trustees has adopted two new guidance policies. The first urges its members to refrain from using genetically modified herbal materials—at least until certain concerns have been resolved. The other endorses a standardized protocol for describing specifications for dietary supplement ingredients.

The Board also adopted a non-binding recommendation that AHPA members who buy and sell dietary ingredients utilize the Standardized Information on Dietary Ingredients (SIDI) protocol as a standard reporting form for providing information about these ingredients. This tool communicates specifications be-tween ingredient buyers and sellers, and was developed jointly by the industry’s trade associations as a standard reporting form for providing information about these ingredients, and to facilitate the efficient exchange of information between ingredient suppliers and finished product manufacturers.
