Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 (NLEA) changed the existing regulatory framework for food labeling requirements that was shared among federal, state, and local levels of government. In addition to creating a system of mandatory nutrition labeling for foods, NLEA provided a schedule for the preemption of state and local labeling requirements that were not identical to federal provisions. Six provisions were not to be preempted until a study on the adequacy of the federal implementation of those provisions was completed. Food Labeling is the result of that study. It presents recommendations concerning the Food and Drug Administration's implementation of the six provisions that were studied, suggestions for the future disposition of relevant state and local food labeling requirements, and views on the continuing importance of the working relationship among the various levels of government in assuring that consumers are protected from misleading label information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Article examines the failures of the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 (NLEA) and argues for its partial repeal. The NLEA was intended to improve the quality of information available to consumers about the food they bought and ate, but it is ineffective and inefficient. At the time of the Act's passage, awareness of the association between diet and health was increasing, and clear and accurate information about food was seen as a critical but simple way to provide people the opportunity to improve their health through nutrition. The information available to consumers, however, is confusing and opaque -- even when presented in a manner compliant with the NLEA. The Act has two parts. First, it mandates disclosure of certain nutrition facts. These include the “Nutrition Facts” box that consumers have become used to seeing on packaged food. Second, it regulates claims made about how nutrients in the food affect human health (called “health claims,” and “nutrient content claims”) to ensure that such claims are based on scientific information. While the first part has succeeded in providing consumers with the mandated information, the second part has failed. Health claims on food are no more trustworthy than they were before the NLEA was passed, and may actually be less so. Indeed, health outcomes directly related to nutrition have worsened dramatically since 1990. While one of the goals of the NLEA was to foster uniformity in food labeling regulation, the amount of litigation regarding food labeling has increased, resulting in conflicting rulings regarding the continued vitality of state law in this arena. This confusion has diminished the valuable role that state law can, and was intended to play in this arena. Moreover, the regulatory strategy of mandated information disclosure is itself weak. Even if the statute were perfectly written, so as to ensure that only claims supported by the best and most current scientific information were available to consumers, it is not certain whether the provision of clear and accurate nutritional information to consumers would actually be a factor in improving health. The Article advocates for the repeal of the health and nutrient content claim provisions of the NLEA. True policy improvement in the food-labeling scheme will not come about through incremental improvements to the NLEA's health and nutrient content claims provisions. This problem should be dealt with by the states.
Download or read book FDA and USDA Nutrition Labeling Guide written by Tracy A. Altman and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1998-06-05 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A workbook for day-to-day decisions Nutrition labels on various food products must comply with numerous, ever-changing requirements. Items such as meat and poultry products, food packages, and dietary supplements are subject to stringent federal regulations-and the costs of compliance are often significant. The Nutritional Labeling and Education Act of 1990 (NLEA) imposed new mandates for labeling of many packaged food products; still others became subject to a voluntary nutrition labeling program. Following that lead, USDA has imposed parallel labeling requirements. FDA and USDA Nutrition Labeling Guide: Decision Diagrams, Checklists, and Regulations provides hands-on information and guidelines for understanding the latest federal nutrition labeling requirements. This plain English analysis of FDA and FSIS labeling rules contains diagrams and tables and cites specific regulations. Decision diagrams walk the reader through volumes of information and make sense out of complicated regulatory processes. Checklists for managing information for developing specific labels help the reader track regulatory changes and document regulation applicability to company products. The RegFinder index references not only the text, but also provides hundreds of regulatory citations, referenced by topic. FDA and USDA Nutrition Labeling Guide: Decision Diagrams, Checklists, and Regulations will be of interest to food industry personnel responsible for compliance with federal nutritional labeling regulations, food product developers and food technologists. Faculty teaching food laws and regulations and food product development will also find this book of interest.
