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:

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.

Certain determinations indicate maximum levels of use. A determination of non-novelty has not been made for use above this level. 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.
