Answer to Question 1

Health claims describe the relationship of a food or food component to a disease or health-related condition. In some cases, the FDA authorizes health claims based on an extensive review of the scientific literature. Structure-function claims describe the effect that a substance has on the structure or function of the body but do not make reference to a diseasefor example, calcium builds strong bones.. Unlike health claims, which require food manufacturers to collect scientific evidence and petition the FDA, structure-function claims can be made without any FDA approval.
