What is the Tolerable Daily Intake for 3-MCPD?
The Scientific Committee for Food (an independent committee which advises the European Commission) have recently proposed a provisional Tolerable Daily Intake (TDI) for 3-MCPD of 2 micrograms/kg bodyweight/day. The TDI is the amount of 3-MCPD that experts believe can be consumed daily over a lifetime without causing any appreciable harm to health.
