Whereas:
(1) On 6 April 2009 the company Cantox Health Sciences International, on behalf of Nutrition 21, made a request to the competent authorities of Ireland to place Chromium Picolinate on the market as a novel food ingredient.

(4) On 10 November 2010 following a request from the Commission, EFSA adopted an opinion (2) on the safety of Chromium Picolinate as a source of chromium added for nutritional purposes to foods for the general population and to foods for particular nutritional uses. In the opinion EFSA concluded that Chromium Picolinate is not of safety concern provided the amount of total chromium does not exceed 250 μg per day, the value established by the World Health Organisation for supplemental intake of chromium that should not be exceeded.
