The difference between health food, health products, food and medicine

 What is health food? According to the "Interpretation of the Food Safety Law", health foods refer to foods that claim to have health functions or supplement nutrients such as vitamins and minerals. That is to say, it is suitable for specific people to eat, has the function of regulating the body, is not for the purpose of curing diseases, cannot replace drugs, and does not produce any acute, subacute or chronic harm to the human body. That's why we can see that "health food is not a medicine and cannot replace medicine to treat diseases" on the labels of current health foods.
