Message from
Dr. Jerzy Zawistowski
Chair, WCFN Board of Directors
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Western Canadian Functional Food and Natural
Health Product Network (WCFN), I am pleased to introduce the new expanded version of
our 2009/10 Natural Sources Directory and industry resource guide. WCFN has become
known as a trusted source of reliable information on functional foods and natural health
products (FFNHP) which is reflected in this directory and resource guide.
In 2008, the WCFN took on an increased role across Western Canada (and Canada as a
whole) which reflects the true geography of our membership. The information that you will
find in the Natural Sources Directory reflects this expansion. The Board of Directors is
proud of the impact that the WCFN is having in assisting its membership in many areas to
facilitate growth and development. We are steadily attracting new membership and are
increasingly being recognized as a leading organization in the sector, and now globally
with our first International Corporate member from India as of January 2009. In the last
few years, our Board of Directors worked towards developing new services for an increasing
membership base across Canada. The Board will continue to monitor our progress and
develop new opportunities for our growing and diverse membership.
The continued success of the WCFN as a not-for-profit organization stems from the strong
support of a number of key sustaining partnerships, corporate & individual membership
and activity sponsors—without this support, the WCFN would not be able to deliver our
wide range of services. The wealth of skills and experience that our Executive Director, Mr.
Greg Edgelow has brought to this position and that of our volunteers has made it possible
for the WCFN to reach its objectives.
We trust that you will find this directory to be a valuable resource for information on a
multitude of stakeholders across the FFNHP sector. The directory will assist you in building linkages to relevant regional, national and international bodies involved in our industry
and particularly with our partners across Canada. The WCFN board is proud to play an
active role in the continuing development of this exciting industry. We look forward to what
we expect will be prosperous times for all of us ahead.
All the best,
Chair, WCFN Board of Directors

MESSAGE FROM THE MINISTER
Canada is an emerging world leader in the functional foods and nutraceuticals industry,
thanks in large part to the hard work of organizations like the Western Canadian
Functional Food and Natural Health Product Network (WCFN) and its members.
Canadians and consumers world-wide are increasingly interested in food products
containing health-enhancing ingredients. This growing demand provides farmers with
new market opportunities for their flax, blueberry, pulse, soy and other crops.
The Government of Canada is committed to supporting this innovative, forward-looking
and responsive agri-food industry. We are demonstrating our commitment through key
investments in projects like NutriNet Canada and other initiatives designed to promote
Canadian functional foods and nutraceuticals around the world. Scientists at Agriculture
and Agri-Food Canada are focusing research efforts on functional foods, successfully
demonstrating the health benefits of many ingredients in various food products.
This Government's overall goal is to ensure a market-oriented and competitive sector
that benefits farmers, industry and rural communities, today and in the future.
Thank you to the WCFN for your dedication to this exciting new industry. I wish you
and your members continued success in the years to come.
Gerry Ritz, P.C., M.P.

As Canada’s Minister of Health, I would like to
congratulate the Western Canadian Functional Food and
Natural Health Product Network on the publication of its
Natural Sources Directory, a useful resource that greatly
benefits the natural health products and food industries.
À titre de ministre de la Santé du Canada, je tiens à féliciter le
réseau des aliments fonctionnels et des produits de santé
naturels de l’Ouest canadien qui vient de publier son
répertoire de sources naturelles, un outil essentiel à
l’industrie des produits de santé naturels et de l’alimentation.
The market for natural health products and functional
foods in Canada has grown at an extraordinary rate over
the past 15 years. The volume of natural health products
available on the Canadian market is significant and
increasing. As more and more Canadians use these
products, it is essential that they be regulated effectively
to protect the health and safety of Canadians.
Le marché des produits de santé naturels et des aliments
fonctionnels connaît une forte croissance depuis 15 ans. Le
volume de produits de santé naturels offerts sur le marché
canadien est considérable et ne cesse d’augmenter. Étant
donné que de plus en plus de Canadiens utilisent ces
produits, il est essentiel de bien les réglementer afin de
protéger la santé et la sécurité des Canadiens.
The Government of Canada is serious about ensuring
that Canadians have access to health products and foods
that are safe, effective and of high quality. In 2007, we
announced the Food and Consumer Safety Action Plan,
a comprehensive set of new measures aimed at
improving federal regulation of food, health and
consumer products through active prevention, targeted
oversight and rapid response.
Le gouvernement du Canada entend faire en sorte que les
Canadiens aient accès à des aliments et à des produits de
santé naturels sûrs, efficaces et de qualité. En 2007, nous
avons annoncé le Plan d’action pour assurer la sécurité des
produits alimentaires et de consommation, un vaste éventail
de nouvelles mesures visant à améliorer la réglementation
fédérale des produits d’alimentation, de santé et de
consommation grâce à une prévention active, une
surveillance ciblée et une intervention rapide.
With advances in natural health products and food,
Health Canada is committed to working with industry to
ensure that there is a strong, innovative market where
Canadians can be confident in the health products and
food they buy. In fact in Budget 2008, the Government
committed $33 million over two years to ensuring
greater safety of natural health products. Stakeholder
engagement enables Health Canada to develop
guidelines, policy and new legislation that can have a
positive effect for industry and consumers alike. This
type of proactive engagement between Health Canada
experts and sector professionals continues to build
confidence among consumers and industry stakeholders
for a safe, sustainable and diverse natural health product
marketplace.
Progressive work being undertaken by groups such as
your own is helping to strengthen Canada’s stellar
reputation at home and abroad for safe quality foods and
natural health products.
Avec les percées enregistrées dans le domaine des produits de
santé naturels et de l’alimentation, Santé Canada entend
travailler avec l’industrie afin que le marché offre aux
Canadiens des aliments et des produits naturels de qualité
irréprochable. Dans le Budget 2008, le gouvernement s’est
engagé à verser 33 millions de dollars sur deux ans pour
améliorer l’innocuité des produits de santé naturels.
L’engagement des intervenants permet à Santé Canada
d’élaborer des lignes directrices, des politiques et de
nouvelles lois qui peuvent avoir un effet positif sur l’industrie
et le consommateur. Cet engagement proactif des experts de
Santé Canada et des professionnels du domaine rassure
consommateurs et intervenants de l’industrie quant à la
sûreté, à la viabilité et à la diversité du marché des produits
de santé naturels.
Le travail soutenu de groupes comme le vôtre aide à renforcer
l’excellente réputation du Canada, ici et à l’étranger, en
matière d’aliments et de produits de santé naturels sûrs et de
grande qualité.

OUR STORY – THE CREATION OF THE WCFN
On March 11, 1998, Biotech Canada held
a workshop on Functional Foods and
Nutraceutical Technologies in Vancouver,
BC. Following this meeting Dr. David Kitts,
Professor, Faculty of Land and Food
Systems, University of British Columbia,
was asked to invite industry stakeholders,
and other interested parties in the FFNHP
sector to a round table discussion on the
formation of a national functional food and
nutraceutical initiative as part of the
Biotech Canada group.
After having shown great promise in its
first year, at the BCFN’s annual meeting in
September 1999, there was discussion of
making the BCFN a more formal organization with membership. As a result, the
British Columbia Functional Food and
Nutraceutical Network Society became formally incorporated on August 29, 2000.
Furthermore, over the previous few years,
there had been discussion on broadening
the scope of the BCFN to extend beyond
the province of BC to develop a more panwestern network and increase the benefits
of Western Canadian interests on a whole.
As a result of these discussions, it was
decided that the BCFN would change its
geographical scope to cover the four western provinces, from British Columbia to
Manitoba, and subsequently its name was
revised to the Western Canadian
Functional Food & Natural Health Product
Network (WCFN). The official name
change from the BCFN to the WCFN
occurred on May 31, 2006.
Biotech Canada received feedback from
FFNHP industry professionals that the
industry was in a strong enough position to
form and sustain its own association.
Other provincial initiatives of this nature
were being organized across Canada, and
nothing yet existed in British Columbia.
Consequently, a decision was made to
explore the possibility of creating an organization in BC.
In July of 1998, several industry professionals were invited to attend a meeting at
the National Research Council's Innovation
Centre to discuss their interest in the
development a British Columbia Functional
Food and Nutraceutical Network (BCFN).
In September 1998, there was a call to a
greater number of industry specialists to
attend a meeting at BCIT, with the intent
of obtaining consensus on the formation of
the BC Nutraceutical Network. Other
objectives of this meeting included development of a mission statement and goals
for the organization, and determination of
topics of interest for a one day seminar to
be held within the first quarter of 1999.
On January 27, 1999, this seminar, undertaken solely by volunteers, was successfully held with an attendance of 150 people
in Vancouver.
To date, the WCFN has hosted over 100
seminars and workshops and has further
evolved by establishing the WCFN
Excellence Awards, Canada’s only FFNHP
industry recognition awards program. In
November 2008, ten years after its conception, the WCFN successfully completed
its10th annual conference in Winnipeg,
the first city to host Canada’s foremost
FFNHP conference outside of Vancouver.
Now, with membership that spans across
Canada, a diverse Board of Directors from
six provinces, the WCFN has grown to over
100 corporate and 400 individual members and a database of over 1500 industry
contacts. January 2009 marks another
milestone for the WCFN with its first
International Corporate member from
India.

Importance in the FFNHP Industry
Health Canada
Agriculture and Agri-Food
Canada
Health Canada is responsible for helping
Canadians maintain and improve their
health. To carry out this responsibility,
Health Canada supports activities that:
The agriculture and agri-food system
encompasses the farm input market, primary agriculture, food, beverage and
tobacco processing and wholesale and
retail sectors.
· Preserve and modernize Canada’s health
care system;
Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC)
provides information, research and technology, and policies and programs to
achieve security of the food system, health
of the environment and innovation for
growth. To this effect, Growing Forward is
a recent Federal-Provincial/Territorial AAFC
initiative committed to supporting the agriculture sector through:
· Enhance and protect the health of
Canadians;
· Work in partnership with others;
· Communicate health promotion and disease prevention
Health Canada encourages Canadians to
enhance their health through active living.
It provides surveillance, prevention, control and research of disease outbreaks
across Canada and around the world. The
Department also monitors health and safety risks related to the sale and use of
drugs, food, chemicals, pesticides, medical devices and certain consumer products
across Canada and around the world
· More investment in innovation;
· Action on key regulatory priorities;
· Environment and food safety programs;
· Programs that better meet local needs;
· Measures that enable farmers to be proactive in managing risk when faced with
disasters.
Health Canada is divided into several
branches and agencies. Most often, matters relating to the FFNHP industry are
dealt with under the Health Products and
Food Branch. Within this branch are several regulating authorities, including, but not
limited to:
Furthermore, with respect to the FFNHP
sector, AAFC “continuously searches for
innovative products such as bioproducts
and functional foods and nutraceutical
products that may provide an excellent
market opportunity to diversify and meet
challenges in a competitive global market.”
· Food Directorate
· Therapeutic Products Directorate

Glossary of Commonly Used
Industry Terms
NOTE: Terms that appear highlighted within the text of this document can be found as separate, fully defined
entries elsewhere in the glossary.
ANTIOXIDANT
Chemically, an antioxidant is “a molecule that
slows a free radical chain reaction propagating
the oxidation of lipids.”1 Biologically, oxidation is a natural process which contributes to
aging, plays a role in the pathogenesis of
cancer and cardiovascular disease.
Antioxidants act to mitigate negative effects
resulting from the oxidation process in the
body. Many phytochemicals (chemicals found
in plants) are potent antioxidants (mostly
fruits, vegetables, grains and nuts).
BIOACTIVE
A substance that produces a biological effect
in living organisms. With respect to humans
and the FFNHP industry, these effects are generally health promoting/sustaining, and are the
result of bioactive compounds found in
healthy foods. These compounds can render a
food to be a Functional Food, or may be
extracted and used in the formulation of
nutraceuticals/NHPs. For a detailed list of
common bioactives in Canada’s FFNHP industry visit: www.agr.gc.ca
CFIA (CANADIAN FOOD INSPECTION AGENCY)
An agency that is “mandated to safeguard
Canada's food supply and the plants and animals upon which safe and high-quality food
depends” The agency is responsible for the
administration and enforcement of many Acts
related to food production. For more information visit: www.inspection.gc.ca
COSMECEUTICAL
A combination of the terms “pharmaceutical”
and “cosmetic,” Health Canada does not formally recognize the term “cosmeceutical,”
however it is becoming an increasingly popular industry term. In general, these products
are similar to, or may be natural health products, and are intended for improvement of the
health of the skin or hair, commonly through
prevention of the negative effects of aging. In
Canada, a cosmetic can be marketed as an
NHP only if it is able to meet specific NHP
structure and function specifications. For
more information on cosmetics as NHPs visit:
www.hc-sc.gc.ca
COSMETIC2
According to Health Canada “the law defines a
cosmetic as a product which cleanses,
improves or alters the complexion, skin, hair
or teeth. A beauty product or grooming aid is
usually categorized as a cosmetic, but will be
legally classified as a drug if it makes any
claims to modify body functions, to prevent or
treat disease.”
DIETARY FIBRE
“The endogenous components of plant material in the diet which are resistant to digestion
by enzymes produced by humans. They are
predominantly non-starch polysaccharides and
lignin and may include, in addition, associated substances.”3 Dietary fibres may be
partially or completely broken down through
fermentation by bacteria in the large intestine.
Dietary fibre is necessary to gastrointestinal
health for its ability to promote regularity.
Some dietary fibres offer functional benefits,
for example through reduction of LDL cholesterol, and/or regulation of blood glucose
levels.
DIETARY SUPPLEMENT
In the United States, a dietary supplement is
defined under DSHEA (Dietary Supplement
Health and Education Act, 1994) as a product taken by mouth that contains a "dietary
ingredient" intended to supplement the diet.
In Canada many of these dietary supplements
would be considered as NHPs. For more information visit the US-FDA Centre for Food
Safety and Drug Administration at: www.cfsan.
fda.gov
Glossary of Terms
DIN (DRUG IDENTIFICATION NUMBER)2
FOSHU (FOODS FOR SPECIFIED HEALTH USES)
A DIN, or a Drug Identification Number, is an
eight (8) digit numerical code preceded by
the prefix DIN which is assigned to each drug
product marketed under or in accordance with
the Food and Drugs Act and Food and Drug
Regulations. All substances classified as
drugs, either for human or animal use, must
carry a DIN in order to be sold in Canada. For
more information, refer to Health Canada’s
DIN Enforcement Policy (POL-0040).
Implemented in Japan, FOSHU was the first
government act to recognize the physiological
benefits that could be offered by some foods.
The Japanese Government defined these as
“foods which are expected to have certain
health benefits, and have been licensed to
bear a label claiming that a person using
them for a specified health use may expect to
obtain the health use through the consumption thereof.”4 These are now most commonly
known as functional foods.
DRUG2
FUNCTIONAL FOOD2
Under the Food and Drugs Act, a drug
includes any substance or mixture of substances manufactured, sold or represented for
use in:
· the diagnosis, treatment, mitigation or prevention of a disease, disorder or abnormal
physical state, or its symptoms, in human
beings or animals;
· restoring, correcting or modifying organic
functions in human beings or animals;
· disinfection in premises in which food is
manufactured, prepared or kept.
There is currently no universally agreed upon
definition, however, Health Canada’s Food
Directorate states that a functional food “is
similar in appearance to, or may be, a conventional food, is consumed as part of a usual
diet, and is demonstrated to have physiological benefits and/or reduce the risk of chronic
disease beyond basic nutritional functions.”
Beyond basic nutrition meaning that if the
functional components of such foods were
removed from the diet, there would be no
symptoms of deficiency, as would appear with
the removal of essential macro and micronutrients. Examples include:
· Oats, a conventional food, naturally contain
beta-glucan, a dietary fibre shown to reduce
LDL cholesterol, and therefore offer a cardiovascular health benefit;
· Orange juice enriched with omega-3 fatty
acids, a non-conventional food, contains
microencapsulated DHA and EPA, marinederived poly-unsaturated fats believed to aid
in cognitive development and the reduction
of cardiovascular disease risk.
FFNHP (FUNCTIONAL FOOD & NATURAL
HEALTH PRODUCT)
An acronym commonly used to refer to the
functional food and natural health product
industry.
FOOD2
The Canadian Food and Drugs Act defines
food as “any article manufactured, sold or
represented for use as a food or drink for
human beings, including chewing gum, and
any ingredients that may be mixed with food
for any purpose whatsoever.”
GI (GLYCEMIC INDEX; GASTROINTESTINAL)
FOOD ADDITIVE2
A commonly used abbreviation in the FFNHP
industry which can relate to:
· Glycemic Index: a numerical value between 0
and 1, that relates to a specific food’s ability to cause an increase in blood sugar upon
ingestion. Foods with low glycemic indices
tend to be favoured over those with higher
ones, especially among diabetics (due to
their ability to regulate blood sugar);
· Gastrointestinal: Referring to the stomach
and intestines. Gastrointestinal health is of
great focus within the FFNHP industry, especially in the areas of dietary fibre, prebiotics
and probiotics.
According to Health Canada, “a food additive
is any chemical substance that is added to
food during preparation or storage and either
becomes a part of the food or affects its characteristics for the purpose of achieving a
particular technical effect”. Learn more about
food additives and how they differ from food
processing aids at: www.hc-sc.gc.ca
FOOD DIRECTORATE2
Within Health Canada, the Food Directorate is
the “federal health authority responsible for
establishing policies, setting standards and
providing advice and information on the
safety and nutritional value of food." Refer to
page 42 of the Directory

Food Safety Network at: www.foodsafetynetwork.ca
GM FOOD (GENETICALLY MODIFIED FOOD)
Classified by Health Canada as a type of Novel
Food, GM foods are those derived from a
plant, animal or microorganism that has been
genetically modified such that:
· the plant, animal or microorganism exhibits
characteristics that were not previously
observed in that plant, animal or microorganism;
· the plant, animal or microorganism no
longer exhibits characteristics that were previously observed in that plant, animal or
microorganism;
· one or more characteristics of the plant,
animal or microorganism no longer fall
within the anticipated range for that plant,
animal or microorganism. (aliment nouveau)
HEALTH CANADA2
The "federal department responsible for helping the people of Canada maintain and
improve their health". Health Canada administers many pieces of legislation, and develops
and enforces regulations under this legislation
that have a direct impact on the health and
safety of Canadians. The ministry has legislative responsibility for the Food and Drug Act.
HEALTH CLAIM2
According to Health Canada, a health claim on
a food or food product “is any representation
in labeling or advertising that states, suggests, or implies that a relationship exists
between consumption of a food or an ingredient in the food and health. Health claims may
be stated explicitly with words, or implied
through symbols, graphics, logos or other
means such as a name, trademark or seal of
approval.” FFNHPs often carry at least one,
sometimes multiple health claims. There are
numerous classes and subclasses of health
claims, both under the Food Directorate and
Natural Health Product Directorate. Detailed
information on these claims and requirements
to hold them can be found on Health Canada’s
website at: www.hc-sc.gc.ca
GMO (GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISM)
GM stands for genetically modified. According
to the CFIA, “an organism, such as a plant,
animal or bacterium, is considered genetically
modified if its genetic material has been
altered through any method, including conventional breeding.” For more information
visit: www.inspection.gc.ca
GMP (GOOD MANUFACTURING PRACTICES)2
According to Health Canada Good
Manufacturing Practices are “a quality assurance standard, also know as GMPs, that
ensures foods, drugs and NHP are consistently
produced and controlled in such a way to
meet the quality standards appropriate to
their intended use, as required by the marketing authorization”. For more information visit:
www.hc-sc.gc.ca
LOCOVORE
A newly coined term to reflect a food and lifestyle philosophy which emphasizes choosing
locally produced items whenever possible.
With respect to food choices, this includes
consuming a “seasonal” diet, rather than relying largely on imported foods. Locovores may
hope to decrease their impact on the environment, improve their health and wellbeing,
and/or support local, sustainable agriculture
and economy.
GRAS (GENERALLY RECOGNIZED AS SAFE)
An acronym standing for “Generally
Recognized as Safe” pertaining to food additives. This terminology is used primarily in the
US, and is recognized under their Food, Drug
and Cosmetics Act. For a list of FAQs surrounding this term refer to the US FDA at:
www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/grasguid.html
MONOGRAPH2
An NHPD written and approved document
that speaks to the safety and efficacy of
ingredients or ingredient combinations commonly used in natural health products. These
documents exist in The Compendium of
Monographs, a tool designed to speed the
evaluation of the safety and efficacy of
medicinal ingredients. The NHPD's product
licensing system allows applicants to reference monographs in support of the safety and
efficacy of their product, when used under
HACCP (HAZARD ANALYSIS CRITICAL
CONTROL POINTS)
An internationally recognized food safety program, “HACCP, pronounced “has-sep”, stands
for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points,
which focuses on the identification, evaluation, control and prevention of hazards at all
stages of the food production process.” For
more information on HACCP regulations and
63
Glossary of Terms
NUTRACEUTICAL2
the conditions specified in the monographs,
rather than providing evidence for ingredients
that are already known to be safe and efficacious. For more information visit: www.hc-sc.
gc.ca
There is currently no universally agreed upon
definition, however, Health Canada’s Food
Directorate originally proposed a nutraceutical
to be “a product isolated or purified from
foods that is generally sold in medicinal forms
not usually associated with food. A nutraceutical is demonstrated to have a physiological
benefit or provide protection against chronic
disease”. In general, nutraceuticals are classified as NHPs, and are intended to deliver the
benefits of “functional” components found in
food, but in a purified, concentrated form.
Examples of nutraceuticals include:
· Omega-3 supplements either plant (i.e. flax)
or marine (fish) derived;
· Numerous antioxidant supplements, such as
green tea catechins.
NHP (NATURAL HEALTH PRODUCT)2
Under Health Canada's NHP Regulations, NHPs
are over the counter substances intended for:
· the diagnosis, treatment, mitigation or prevention of a disease, disorder or abnormal
physical state or its symptoms in humans;
· restoring or correcting organic functions in
humans;
· modifying organic functions in humans, such
as modifying those functions in a manner
that maintains or promotes health.
This includes:
· Vitamins and minerals;
· Herbal remedies;
· Homeopathic medicines;
· Traditional medicines such as traditional
Chinese medicine;
· Probiotics;
· Other products like amino acids and essential fatty acids.
NB: Nutraceuticals are generally considered to
be NHPs
NUTRI-NET
Nutri-Net Canada is a collaborative initiative
among regional and national industry, trade
and research organizations and government
bodies dedicated to advancing the development of the FFNHP sector in Canada. This
emerging sector uses agricultural, forestry and
fishery products to develop value-added,
knowledge-based products and ingredients,
providing consumers with foods and natural
health products with health and wellness benefits. For more information visit Nutra-Net’s
website at: www.nutrinetcanada-nnc.ca
NHPD (NATURAL HEALTH PRODUCT
DIRECTORATE)2
Within Health Canada, the NHPD is Canada’s
regulating authority for NHPs for sale in
Canada. Refer to page 42 of this directory.
NUTRIENT
A substance found in food that is essential to
growth and health maintenance. Nutrients can
be subdivided into macronutrients (protein,
carbohydrate and fat) and micronutrients
(vitamins and minerals).
2
NOVEL FOODS
· Foods resulting from a process not previously
used for food;
· Products that do not have a history of safe
use as a food;
· Foods that have been modified by genetic
manipulation.
For more information, visit: www.hc-sc.gc.ca
OMEGA-3
Long-chain, poly-unsaturated fatty essential
fatty acids. There are three main types of
omega-3s: DHA, EPA and ALA. Depending on
the type, these fats have a variety of biological
roles, including maintenance of cardiovascular
health and development of the brain and
other nervous tissues. For details on the various types of omega-3s and their roles in the
body, visit the DHA/EPA Omega-3 Institute at:
http://dhaomega3.org
NPN (NATURAL PRODUCT NUMBER)2
An NPN, or Natural Product Number, is an
“eight (8) digit numerical code assigned to
each natural health product approved to be
marketed under the Natural Health Products
Regulations.” This number is assigned once a
natural health product’s produce license and
site license applications have been approved
by the NHPD. A Homeopathic Medicine
Number (DIN-HM) is an eight (8) digit numerical code assigned to each homeopathic
medicine approved to be marketed under the
Natural Health Products Regulations.
ORGANIC
The International Federation of Organic
Agriculture Movements (IFOAM) defines
organic agriculture as “a production system
that sustains the health of soils, ecosystems
64
Glossary of Terms
PLA (PRODUCT LICENSE APPLICATION)2
and people. It relies on ecological processes,
biodiversity and cycles adapted to local conditions, rather than the use of inputs with
adverse effects. Organic agriculture combines
tradition, innovation and science to benefit
the shared environment and promote fair relationships and a good quality of life for all
involved.” For more information on organic
standards in Canada, visit:
· Organic Agriculture Centre of Canada:
www.organicagcentre.ca
· Canadian Organic Growers:
www.cog.ca
· CFIA: www.inspection.gc.ca
PLA, a commonly used abbreviation for a
Product License Application, is a document
which must be submitted to, and approved by,
the NHPD in order to obtain a produce license
for the sale of an NHP within Canada. This
document must include sufficient data to
allow the NHPD to assess the safety, quality
and efficacy of the natural health product
when used under its recommended conditions
of use. For information on how to obtain a
produce license, visit: www.hc-sc.gc.ca
SITE LICENSE2
A site license is “required by all businesses in
Canada that wish to manufacture, package,
label and/or import a NHP for sale. It is issued
by the NHPD and gives the licensee authorization to manufacture, package, label and/or
import NHPs”. For more information visit:
www.hc-sc.gc.ca
PHARMACEUTICAL2
Health Canada defines pharmaceuticals as
“drugs that are mostly synthetic products that
are made from chemicals. Pharmaceuticals
include prescription and non-prescription
drugs such as antibiotics, disinfectants, as
well as low risk products such as sunscreens,
antiperspirants and toothpaste.”
SUPPLEMENT
For the purposes of this glossary, this is a
commonly used abbreviation of the US term,
Dietary Supplement.
PREBIOTICS
Prebiotics are NOT bacteria. Rather, they are
a type of dietary fibre. These non-digestible
carbohydrates provide energy to the “good” or
probiotic bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract.
They are formally defined as “selectively fermented ingredients that allow specific
changes, both in the composition and/or activity in the gastrointestinal microbiota that
confer benefits upon host well-being and
health.”5
THERAPEUTIC PRODUCTS DIRECTORATE
(TPP)2
Within Health Canada, the TPP is the Canadian
federal authority that regulates pharmaceutical drugs and medical devices for human use.
Refer to page 42 of the Directory.
WCFN
Western Canadian Functional Food & Natural
Health Product Network
PROBIOTICS
“Live microorganisms, which when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health
benefit on the host.”6 Note that there have
been multiple beneficial applications identified for probiotics. That is, beyond ingestion
with the intent of improving gastrointestinal
function, they have also shown promise as
effective topically applied agents, such as for
the use in treating skin infections.
WELLNESS WEST
Wellness West is a collaborative partnership
amongst Western Canadian federal and western provincial government departments and
agencies dedicated to assisting the development of an economically viable functional
