Plantlibra is an EU-funded research project about risks and benefits of plant food supplements.

Plant-based food supplements (PFS) have been and are increasingly used across the European Union, with ingredients often deriving from Third Countries. The knowledge on the safety and benefits of these products – particularly in Europe - is lagging behind the demands of the market and of regulators. Competent authorities, food chain operators and consumers often face difficulties in making informed decisions.

PlantLIBRA aims to foster safe use of food supplements containing or consisting of plants and/or herbal extracts, chiefly by increasing science-based decision-making by regulators and food chain operators, through data, information and tools. PlantLIBRA is structured to develop, validate and disseminate methodologies for risk and benefit assessment, to greatly expand, generate and make available knowledge on PFS, and implement sustainable international cooperation. Through the multi- disciplinary consortium of PlantLIBRA, researchers, excelling in different fields, will share their work and expertise among themselves and with the leading stakeholders towards an integrated "science of botanicals".
