PanelIngredientsClaims
U.S. FDA-regulated dietary supplements. Review covers 21 CFR Part 101, including § 101.36; ingredient and allergen requirements; and the DSHEA structure/function framework, including disease-claim risk and questions about disclaimers and notifications.
Outputs for the agreed workstreams
- Genesis R&D-based Supplement Facts panel file and supporting nutrient report
- Dietary and other ingredient statements with allergen information
- Structure/function and other proposed-claim review memo
- Marked-up preliminary or final supplement artwork
The proposal identifies deliverables, file formats, estimated hours, and artwork review stages. Work is billed hourly, including revisions; the project estimate sets out the agreed scope.
Turnaround by workstream
Genesis R&D-based panel work averages about one week from a complete formula and supporting documents. Claims-only review, artwork-only review and on-shelf label audits receive a project-specific delivery date after Aimee assesses the scope and materials.
Inputs for the review
- Formula with ingredient amounts
- Supplier specifications and allergen details
- Serving size and directions
- Current or draft artwork
- Exact proposed claims and available nutrition data
- Target U.S. market and print date
Exclusions
Laboratory testing, legal opinions, USDA labeling or approval, Canadian labeling, Proposition 65 assessments, NDI notifications, claim-substantiation dossiers, and regulatory filings are outside the standard label-review scope.
Any notification, new dietary ingredient, or substantiation issue is flagged. Additional work or specialist involvement must be assessed and agreed separately; it is not included or promised by a panel review.
A closer look
What the review covers
Supplement Facts — 21 CFR 101.36
Develop and review Supplement Facts information with attention to serving size, dietary ingredients, quantitative amounts, % Daily Value where required, and the underlying formula and raw-material data. Aimee’s background includes constructing supplement panels using Genesis R&D.
Ingredient declarations
Coordinate dietary and other ingredients, allergen information, flavors, colors, excipients, and source ingredients with raw-material specifications and the documentation needed to support the label.
Structure/function claims — DSHEA framework
Evaluate structure/function language and other proposed product messaging for scientific accuracy, substantiation, and disease-claim risk, drawing on experience working with Scientific Affairs and Legal teams.
Artwork review & labeling coordination
Review preliminary and final label artwork against the agreed panel and claim set, with experience coordinating label specifications, cross-functional approvals, and supporting documentation before launch.
Product-specific review questions
- Powdered sports nutrition: serving directions, ingredient amounts, panel presentation, and the product’s food or supplement classification.
- Multi-ingredient supplements: dietary versus other ingredients, source ingredients, and supporting supplier documentation.
- Products with structure/function claims: evidence relevant to the ingredient, dose, finished product, and intended population; disease-claim risk; disclaimer and notification questions.

Draft label wording
“Prevents colds and flu.”
Remove or reviseReview comment
This wording claims to prevent disease. It is not a dietary supplement structure/function claim, and a disclaimer does not resolve the disease claim.
Next step
Remove the wording. Assess whether evidence supports a statement about normal immune function for the actual ingredient, dose, product, and population before considering replacement language.
