In Europe, the fruits and leaves of black and white mulberries are only allowed in food supplements (Table 1). Mulberries are commonly sold as:

• Dried fruit, where they are more often sold as food product than as food supplement
• Leaf powder
• Mulberry leaf tea
• Capsules containing mulberry leaf extract or fruit extract (less common)

The bud and stem bark of black mulberries are also allowed in food supplements in the BELFRIT countries (Belgium, France and Italy). Based on the BELFRIT positives list, health authorities in other countries might allow use of these products.

Moreover, different national positive lists include other products:

• Belgium: stem and root bark of both white and black mulberries.
• France: stem and root of white mulberries and root bark of black mulberries.
• Italy: root bark, fruit and leaves of Morus spp., thus including white mulberries.
