EU Health-Claim Regulation • Any statements about a relationship between food and health • Scientific evidence based claims • Conditions for using are strongly defined • Declaration on packages • From more than 44.000 applied claims the European Food Safety • Authority (EFSA) actually just notified 222 to be based on scientific • evidence. Approximately 1.500 claims referring to plant ingredients have to be discussed. • Four of these are related to beta-glucan or dietary fibre from barley or oats. DIECKMANN GmbH & Co. KG www.dieckmann-seeds.de EFFoST – Symposium, AnugaFoodTec, March 2012, Cologne
Beta-Glucan Claims frombarley or oats • Health Claims concerning blood cholesterol level • “Regular consumption of beta-glucans contributes to maintenance of normal blood cholesterol concentrations.” (Function Claims Art 13.1) • “Barley beta-glucans have been shown to lower/reduce blood cholesterol. High cholesterol is a risk factor in the development of coronary heart disease.” (Art. 14.1) • Health Claim concerning lowering glycaemic index • “Consumption of beta-glucans from oats or barley contributes to the reduction of the glucose rise after a meal.”(Function Claims Art 13.1) DIECKMANN GmbH & Co. KG www.dieckmann-seeds.de EFFoST – Symposium, AnugaFoodTec, March 2012, Cologne

ConditionsofuseregardingGlycaemic Index Claim “Consumption of beta-glucans from oats or barley contributes to the reduction of the glucose rise after a meal.” (Function Claims Art 13.1) • In order to obtain the claimed effect, 4 g of beta-glucans from oats or barley for each 30 g of available carbohydrates should be consumed per meal. • betaBARLEYwholegrainproductscontain 2.4 g / 30 g carbohydrates • Conclusion: Actually the requested amount can only be met with highly concentrated flours - at a high price level.

Howbeta-glucanswork • Beta-glucans of barley transport “bad” LDL- cholesterol and bile acids out of the body • This is stimulating the liver to form new bile acids out of cholesterol • The differencesbetweenbeta-glucanlinkagesandchemicalstructurearesignificant in regardstosolubility, modeofactionandoverallbiologicalactivity. • Yeast: (1,3/1,6) beta-glucan - immun systemstimmulating • Barleyandoats: (1,3/1,4) beta-glucanaresolubleandhave an cholesterol-loweringeffect DIECKMANN GmbH & Co. KG www.dieckmann-seeds.de EFFoST – Symposium, AnugaFoodTec, March 2012, Cologne
Health Claim concerning dietary fibre • “Barley grain fibre contributes to an increase infaecal bulk” Europäische Food Safety Authority(EFSA) • In order to obtain the claimed effect, a food should be at least “high in fibre” form oats or barley as per Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. • A claim that a food is high in fibre, and any claim likely to have the same meaning for the consumer, may only be made where the product contains at least 6 g of fibre per 100 g or at least 3 g of fibre per 100 kcal (drinks).

Conclusion • The market of functional food will grow fast in the coming years. • Reasons are the aging society and strongly rising costs caused by food related diseases like obesity, diabetes mellitus, colon cancer and - closely linked - the growing health awareness of the population. • Health Claim Regulation allows medium-sized companies to participate in this market at acceptable costs. • In response, the new betaBARLEY variety provides an excellent basis for innovative natural cholesterol-lowering food, regionally produced and at low costs.
