The developments in the food sector and particularly in the nutrition labelling sector require food business operators and mass caterers (restaurants, hospitals, canteens, etc.) to be prepared properly and on time so that by the end of 2016 beginning the application of Regulation 1169 provisions / 2011 / EU is ready to meet the requirements.
The nutrition declaration must take mandatory energy value (*), protein, fat and saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars and sodium (salt).
It may also, depending on the nature of the food, comprise cholesterol, starch, vitamins, trace elements etc.
(*): The energy value calculated from the carbohydrate values of fat, protein and dietary fiber.
Apart of the legal requirements, the increased interest of consumers in a balanced diet led the European food industry to the voluntary adoption of a single system to indicate the nutritional information (GDAs) in order to ensure uniformity in the graphical display, correcting the labels foodstuffs and to enable consumers to be more aware of the nutritional choices.
By the term Guideline Daily Amount we mean the total daily amount of calories, sugar, fat and sodium should be received from a healthy adult. By this way the consumer can evaluate each food and choose what is suitable for his needs.
