FDA publishes long-awaited front-of-package labeling proposal
- The US Food and Drug Administration is proposing that nutrition information be placed on the front of packaged foods to provide at-a-glance information about saturated fat, sodium, and added sugar.
- The proposed label would indicate whether the food contains low, medium, or high levels of sodium, added sugar, and saturated fat.
- If finalized, major food manufacturers would need to add the nutrition info box to most packaged foods three years after the rule’s effective date.
- Nancy Brown, the Chief Executive Officer of the American Heart Association, said the proposal would simplify nutrition information and help consumers make healthier food purchases.
