List of non-novel determinations for food and food ingredients
This list includes most of the non-novel determinations for food and food ingredients that Health Canada has made since 2012. These are the results of a voluntary process referred to as a novelty determination.
This list does not include products of plant breeding. There is a complementary list specific to non-novel products of plant breeding for food use.
This list is published to:
- increase transparency of non-novel determinations for food and food ingredients
- allow interested parties to verify if their food products and ingredients are considered non-novel
We confirmed these determinations are:
- free of confidential business information
- not associated with any specific health and safety considerations
All non-novel determinations based on requests received after September 30, 2020 will automatically be included in the list. You should be aware that this a new step in Health Canada's novelty determination process. You may direct questions about this process to:
Bureau of Microbial Hazards, Food Directorate

Notes for users of this list
Foods and food ingredients on this list:
- are considered non-novel for use as a food or food ingredient
- did not undergo a safety assessment by Health Canada for food use
- must still be in compliance with all applicable statutory and regulatory requirements for food such as those for:
- flavours
- food additives
- processing aids
- infant formulas
- fortificants/fortifiers
The presence of foods and food ingredients on this list:
- only concerns their novelty status as defined under Division B.28 of the Food and Drug Regulations
- does not allow you to make health claims, including novel fibre claims. Fibre declarations and health claims are subject to a separate regulatory oversight. To support the use of a health claim associated with these products, you should contact the Food Directorate's Submission Management and Information Unit.
The term 'whole or minimally processed' is a plain language description intended to encompass foods whose safety and nutritional quality have not been altered significantly. Whole foods have not undergone any process other than cleaning, disinfection, classification and/or packaging. Minimally processed foods include those that have been washed and/or peeled, sliced, chopped, shredded, chilled, frozen, dried, or ground/milled prior to sale or consumption. Dried foods are processed foods but drying is generally considered acceptable due to its minor impact on the safety and nutritional quality of the food. Please see the Canadian Food Inspection Agency guidance for further information on minimal processing. Within the context of novelty status determination, extraction processes are not considered minimal processes and are excluded from this term. Therefore, products that have undergone an extraction are not minimally processed products.
Certain determinations indicate maximum levels of use. A determination of non-novelty has not been made for use above this level. Non-novel determinations are specific to the way they are described in this list. To request a novelty determination for other uses of a listed food or food ingredient, please contact the Submission Management and Information Unit. The sale of a food or food ingredient that poses a hazard to the health of consumers would contravene the provisions of the Food and Drugs Act.
Finally, please note that Health Canada reserves the right to modify the list without notice. If you reference this list, it is your continuing responsibility to consult the list for updates.
