Food Components to Enhance Performance: An Evaluation of Potential Performance-Enhancing Food Components for Operational Rations

PART VI
Safety and Regulatory Aspects of Potential Ration Enhancement

In PART VI THE FINAL TWO CHAPTERS address the safety and regulatory aspects of potential performance-enhancing food components. The first chapter is an overview of a recent report that reviewed amino acids. The final chapter addresses the regulation of food components by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
