What the study reported
Verified extract — not AI generated
“The opinion does not test the product itself but confirms that the listed nutrients can contribute to the claimed health effects when present in sufficient amounts.”
One serving (40 g) delivers the product's full complement of 27 vitamins and minerals, aligning with the nutrient levels discussed in the EFSA opinion.
No adverse effects are reported in the EFSA opinion; safety depends on typical dietary intake levels.
Caveats
The EFSA document is a regulatory review, not a clinical trial of the specific meal‑replacement; it does not assess overall product performance or long‑term outcomes.
