据欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）消息，应欧盟委员会的要求，5月13日欧盟食品安全局就蔓越莓提取粉作为新资源食品的安全性发布意见，认可其作为新资源食品的安全性。
据了解，蔓越莓提取粉来自蔓越莓汁浓缩液，通过吸附树脂柱分离乙醇提取液获得酚类成分，其中含有约55-60%的原花青素（PACs）。产品的目标人群为成年人。
欧盟专家组认为，这种食品的组分、规格、批次差异性与稳定性信息充足，无安全风险。
部分原文报道如下：
Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies （NDA） was asked to deliver an opinion on 'cranberry extract powder' as a novel food （NF） submitted pursuant to Regulation （EC） No 258/97 of the European Parliament and of the Council. The NF contains about 55–60% proanthocyanidins （PACs）。 The Panel considers that the information provided on the composition, the specifications, batch-to-batch variability and stability of the NF is sufficient and does not raise safety concerns. Cranberry extract powder is produced from cranberry juice concentrate through an ethanolic extraction using an adsorptive resin column to retain the phenolic components.
