Using the food label to help with food choices

Under regulations from the Food and Drug Administration of the Department of Health and Human Services and the Food Safety and Inspection Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the food label offers more complete, useful and accurate nutrition information than ever before.

With today's food labels, consumers get

nutrition information about almost every food in the grocery store
distinctive, easy-to-read formats that enable consumers to more quickly find the information they need to make healthful food choices
information on the amount per serving of saturated fat, cholesterol, dietary fiber, and other nutrients of major health concern
nutrient reference values, expressed as % Daily Values, that help consumers see how a food fits into an overall daily diet
uniform definitions for terms that describe a food's nutrient content--such as "light," "low-fat," and "high-fiber"--to ensure that such terms mean the same for any product on which they appear
claims about the relationship between a nutrient or food and a disease or health-related condition, such as calcium and osteoporosis, and fat and cancer. These are helpful for people who are concerned about eating foods that may help keep them healthier longer.
standardized serving sizes that make nutritional comparisons of similar products easier
declaration of total percentage of juice in juice drinks. This enables consumers to know exactly how much juice is in a product.
