About IADSA

For the past decade IADSA has been a trusted source of information about regulatory and scientific developments in the world and the technical requirements of food supplement manufacture.

Originally created as a body to bring together the food supplement sector in Codex Alimentarius discussions, IADSA has expanded its operations considerably. The organisation now has:

  • Regional and national regulatory programs in many parts of the world where food supplement regulation is being harmonised or modified.

  • A 3-year scientific program to address the most relevant and in many cases most challenging issues for policy makers.

  • A technical program focused on continuing to build quality in manufacturing of supplements.

IADSA has more than 50 members associations, representing more than 20,000 companies worldwide.
