Hi Stella
I read about the EU directive too, but can't find a list of the 300
supplements they are banning anywhere, yet. read this..from
http://www.greatestherbsonearth.com/.../anh_euban.htm
"WHAT WILL BE BANNED BY THE DIRECTIVE?

Among the 300 ingredients to be banned by the Directive will be natural
forms of Vitamin E, found in food such as wheatgerm oil, and organic bound
minerals like selenomethionine and selenocysteine, found in foods like
brazil nuts. In addition, the directive aims to ban nearly all important
trace elements used in supplements, including boron and vanadium.

Demand for products nutrients sourced from natural ingredients is increasing
rapidly among consumers simply because such products work very effectively.
An increasing number of scientific reports are supporting their use in place
of older-style synthetic nutrients that have been the mainstay of the
supplement industry for several decades.

Synthetic vitamins and inorganic minerals, typical ingredients in
multivitamin and mineral products found in supermarkets and pharmacies will
not be affected by the ban.

In summary, advanced natural and well absorbed vitamin and mineral nutrients
will be banned and what will be allowed will be the old-fashioned, mainly
synthetic and inorganic forms, which tend to be much less effective.

The Foods Supplements Directive ban on advanced nutrients thus destroys
innovation and deprives consumers of the best food supplements now
available. "
If you're taking glandulars, they're not covered yet by the FSD which
comes into effect 1 Aug 2005. At the moment only vitamins and minerals
are to be controlled but there is the intention to eventually bring all
supplements under the Directive.
