Incident Report: Detection of Nicotinamide-Related Substances in Nutritional Supplements
Date of Incident: November 28, 2025
The recent detection of nicotinamide-related substances in nutritional supplements has raised significant concerns regarding food safety and product integrity. This incident, originating from the Netherlands, falls under the category of fraud and highlights inadvertent deviations in product formulation.
Nutritional supplements are widely consumed for their potential health benefits, and any contamination or deviation from expected ingredient profiles can pose risks to consumers. The presence of unintended substances may not only affect the efficacy of the supplements but could also lead to adverse health effects in sensitive individuals.
The European Commission has issued a press release regarding this matter, emphasizing the importance of rigorous quality control measures in the production of nutritional supplements. Consumers are advised to remain vigilant and consult with healthcare professionals before using any supplements, particularly those that may have been affected by this incident.
As the investigation continues, it is crucial for regulatory bodies to ensure that all nutritional supplements on the market meet safety standards and are free from harmful substances. The integrity of food products, including dietary supplements, is paramount to maintaining public health and consumer trust.
