Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/2182 of 30 August 2022 amending Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1798 as regards the lipid and magnesium requirements for total diet replacement for weight control was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 9 November 2022 and is entered into force on 29 November 2022 (without transition period).

This regulation amends Annex I of the delegated regulation (EU) 2017/1798:

1. Deletion of the minimum linoleic acid content
2. Reduction of the minimum alpha-linolenic acid content “The alpha-linolenic acid contained in total diet replacement for weight control products shall not be less than 0,8 g for the total daily ration” (instead of 1.4g previously)
3. Increase of the maximum magnesium content (≤ 350mg instead of 250mg previously)

Reminder: the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1798 supplementing Regulation (EU) No 609/2013 as regards the specific compositional and information requirements for total diet replacement for weight control is applicable instead of Directive 96/8/EC since 27 October 2022.
