LIST OF CHINESE MEDICINAL MATERIALS (CMM) COMMONLY USED IN FOOD

(as at November 2015)

PREAMBLE

The Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) and the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) have jointly
established the “List of Chinese medicinal materials commonly used in food” to serve as a guide to the
industry on the list of traditional Chinese medicinal materials that are allowed in food.

Traditional Chinese medicinal materials include parts from plants, animals and minerals in their natural
states, or in processed forms that have undergone simple processing such as cutting or drying.
Traditionally, some of the traditional Chinese medicinal materials are also used in our day-to-day cooking in
amounts to impart flavour and for general wellbeing. Examples of food added with such materials are pre-
packed soup concentrate and flavoured Asian drinks with herbs. The List is applicable to the use of whole
herbs or whole extracts in food and not applicable to the use of isolates or concentrates of the active
components from the herbs in food.

The use of traditional Chinese medicinal materials in food is not intended for prevention, treating or
alleviating disease conditions. If they are used for medicinal purposes, please refer to the guidelines for
traditional medicinal materials available on the website of the Health Sciences Authority (HSA).
