FSSAI working on labelling norms for foods high in fat, sugar and salt Dated: 1 June, 2017 Pages: 1 The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) is working on a set of rules for labelling of food products, particularly those considered high in fat, sugar and salt. The country’s apex food regulator has taken up the issue after an old report on HFSS products was made public recently. Said a senior FSSAI official, “The rationale behind the move is that there is no scientific definition of foods high in fat, salt and sugar and it will be difficult to categorise such products.” “Therefore, we are working on a set of rules which will be defined in accordance to the daily recommended intake of a nutrient or ingredient for a person in a day,” he added. “These norms would make it mandatory for food business operators (FBOs) to mention the amounts of fat, salt and sugar in accordance to the recommended dietary allowances (RDAs),” the official stated. He added, “It would be made mandatory for the FBOs to mention what part of the RDA is consumable on the package of that food product or per serving of the product.” The official said that FBOs were already putting information about the nutritional values of the product in terms of salt, sugar and fat per 100g serving. “This effort is to help the consumers make informed choices,” he added, stating that the norms would be out shortly.FSSAI working on labelling norms for foods high in fat, sugar and salt Dated: 1 June, 2017 Pages: 1 The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) is working on a set of rules for labelling of food products, particularly those considered high in fat, sugar and salt.

Only 3% of what Indians consume is processed. This means our woes are due to lack of physical activity and stress. No matter what the FSSAI does if we continue to consume bread pakoras, samosas and jalebis, watch IPL from the comfort of our sofa, and worry about a hundred other things.....nobody can help us. more  
Bread Pakoras, Samosas and Jalebis are bot bad foods at all. They are generally not considered as 'Processed Foods' at all. All these are cooked foods and do not contain any chemicals, etc. as is usually found in processed foods. more  
Let FSSAI work out. more  
Hare Krsna. It is very good step by FSSAI. But how for its strictly implementation. more  
FSSAI should work out the maximum amount of fat salt & sugar per 100 gram of few category of products and communicate to manufacturers and public where these are crucial to health. Umesh Kumar more
