“…The uptake of Se can lead to unspecific (and potentially deleterious) displacement of S in S-containing amino acids, leading to seleno-amino acids such as, selenocysteine (SeCys) and selenomethionine (SeMet) (Fordyce, 2013; Gómez-Jacinto, Navarro-Roldán, Garbayo-Nores, Vílchez-Lobato, Borrego, & García-Barrera, 2020; Gupta & Gupta, 2017;Tan et al, 2016;Young et al, 2010). Mammals and other vertebrates do not synthetise SeMet from inorganic Se precursors, instead, SeMet is obtained from the diet and it has been considered to be the most effective form of Se supplementation, estimated to account for>50 % of human dietary Se (Aguilar et al, 2008;Cummins & Martin, 1967; form of Se in aquatic food webs (Spallholz & Hoffman, 2002).…”

Following the adoption of Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 on food information to consumers, the European Commission requested EFSA to update its ‘Guidance on safety evaluation of sources of nutrients and bioavailability of the nutrient from the sources’ regarding the scientific principles and data requirements for the scientific assessment of all new forms of micronutrients and to derive a conversion factor for new micronutrient sources or forms of micronutrients to be authorised for addition to foods, including food supplements. This guidance outlines the scientific principles that the NDA Panel will consider for the assessment of the safety and the quantification of the relative bioavailability of new sources of micronutrients, which applicants are requested to consider when preparing their applications. It also outlines the data requirements for dossiers. Applicants should integrate the data presented in different sections to provide their overall considerations on how the information provided supports the safety of the new micronutrient source and the quantification of its relative bioavailability compared to a reference source under the proposed conditions of use. As preparatory work for the development of this guidance, EFSA launched an Expert Survey and held an online workshop on 9th March 2023 inviting scientific input from stakeholders and scientific experts, the report of which is now available online in the EFSA's webpage.

The purpose of this review is to consider the assessment of integrated fluoride exposure and "tolerable daily intake" in children including bottle-fed infants according to the World Health Organisation (WHO) and European Union (EU) guidelines.All people have the right to access drinking-water that is safe for human consumption, and it is the responsibility of the governments to regulate the supply and distribution of drinking-water that is essential to sustain life with respect to international health regulations and human rights. National drinking-water standards must be based on varying environmental, socio-cultural, socio-economic, dietary, and other factors affecting potential exposure. Total daily fluoride intake may vary depending on the different sources of exposure that are for instance, fluoride concentration in the air, drinking water and the amount consumed, levels in food and beverages and using dental preparations. The impact of fluoride is estimated based on the exposure duration and factors such as age i.e., daily mg dose per kg of body weight. Bottle-fed infants are considered as a high exposure group relative to their body weights. Therefore, the risk should be separately assessed for every life stage, especially children under 3 years old, partially breastfed and formula fed infants, certainly pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. In this article, the "Guideline Value" and "Tolerable Daily Intake" for children which do not result in any significant risk to health over a lifetime of consumption will be explained. Additionally, this review will keep light on public health, especially children's health, in evaluating fluoride intake and it can improve national drinking-water quality based on fluoridation and derogation which is in progress to eliminate high values.
