May 03, 2021
There has been a growing interest in the Food-medicine interface due to its legal and commercial importance with the development of both food and medicine industries.

Hence, the distinction between food and medicine is crucial in order to protect the interests of consumers. This study is a doctrinal review on the food-medicine interface at international level with particular reference to its application in the Sri Lankan context.
