Comments:
Considering that the anticipated maximum daily intake of thaumatin is calculated to be in the order of 2 mg/kg day and in view of the fact that thaumatin makes an insignificant contribution to the normal protein diet and is established into normal body constituents, JECFA decided to establish an ADI “not specified”.
