OmniActive Health Technologies has announced that its OmniLean Salacia Extract has received self-affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) notification by an expert panel.

The expert panel evaluated the ingredient in accordance with stringent US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) safety criteria, said the company.

The company launched OmniLean earlier this year at Engredea 2016 in Anaheim. The ingredient is report to help support metabolic health and was recently shown to reduce post prandial blood glucose and insulin in a human clinical trial in healthy individuals (Journal of Diabetes Research, doi: 10.1155/2016/7971831​).

OmniLean is a free-flowing powder that can be used in tablets, capsules, powders and bars, said OmniActive in a release.
