Lords back new purity rules for magnesium food supplements
Peers considered regulations setting safety and purity standards for magnesium L-threonate monohydrate in food supplements in England. Ministers said the ingredient has been assessed as safe and the change is a technical update that lets it be sold legally, while one peer asked how the purity rules will work in practice and another warned about any future UK-EU food rule changes limiting Parliament’s say.
