Front of Pack Food Labelling
A new food labelling system to help people check the healthiness of products is being introduced across all supermarkets by all four UK governments. Labels will include information on guideline daily amounts (GDAs), be colour coded with a traffic light system and use the words "high", "medium" or "low" to inform people about how much fat, saturated fat, salt, sugar and calories are inside.
This bulletin is brought to you by Library and Knowledge Services. It aims to keep you up-to-date with therapeutic issues. At the beginning of each month, a librarian will update the bulletin with relevant information published in the preceding month. If there are areas you think we also need to cover, please let us know.
