About the Book

Master's Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: DE: 1; DK: 12, Aarhus School of Business, language: English, abstract: OBJECTIVE: In times when consumers' health and healthy eating has become a central priority in the European Commissions' mission to protect the interests of consumers the European legislation has put a big emphasis on the regulations concerning functional foods in the European market by adopting a list of authorised health claims which have been scientifically proven.
