Urgently check and verify 2 weight loss products advertised by "Ngan Collagen"

The Food Safety Department stated that through post-inspection of food product announcement and advertising, the unit discovered a number of products of N-Collagen Import-Export Company Limited (at No. 28, Lot B Street, Phu Dinh River Port Resettlement Area, Ward 16, District 8, Ho Chi Minh City) by an individual with the nickname "Ngan Collagen" advertising the products "Apple candy to eliminate belly fat" and "N-collagen lemon plus" in violation of regulations.

In particular, through inspection and review on online public service software, the results show that the Food Safety Department has not yet issued a certificate of acceptance of product declaration registration and a certificate of confirmation of advertising content for the products named "Apple candy to eliminate belly fat" and "N-collagen lemon plus".

Meanwhile, through checking the internet environment, the label images of the above 2 products indicate that the product group is a dietary supplement, specifically as follows:

The product "Apple candy to eliminate belly fat" is exclusively distributed by N-Collagen Import Export Company Limited. The trader responsible for the quality and distribution of the product is Hoang Chau Pharm Company Limited (at No. 24, Lane 8/11, Le Quang Dao Street, Phu Do Ward, Nam Tu Liem District, Hanoi ). The product is manufactured at Vesco Pharmaceutical Company Limited (at Dan Phuong Industrial Park, Dan Phuong Commune, Dan Phuong District, Hanoi City).

The product "N-collagen chanh plus" is distributed by N-Collagen Import Export Company Limited. The trader responsible for product quality is Bequen Company Limited (at Dan Phuong industrial site, Dan Phuong commune, Dan Phuong district, Hanoi). The product is manufactured at Vesco Pharmaceutical Company Limited.

Pursuant to Decree No. 15/2018/ND-CP detailing the implementation of a number of articles of the Food Safety Law, the group of supplementary food products has been decentralized to local management. Therefore, the Food Safety Department requests the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Food Safety and Hygiene and the Hanoi Food Safety and Hygiene Department to urgently inspect and verify the production of the above products, and at the same time take samples for testing to determine prohibited substances (if any) for handling according to regulations.
