Abstract

Natural health products (NHPs) are rapidly increasing in popularity, public consumption and of regulatory concern internationally. Canada has implemented regulations for these products in response to concerns over quality, safety and efficacy. We conducted a narrative review of the NHP regulations in order to understand the contextual factors underlying the regulations’ implementation.
