FDA's Healthy Food Label - What it means to you.
The FDA announced on December 19, 2024, a final rule to update the “healthy” claim that manufacturers can voluntarily use on food packages. The updated claim is consistent with current nutrition science and Federal dietary guidance.
To meet the updated criteria for the claim, a food product needs to contain a certain amount of food from at least one of the food groups or subgroups (such as fruit, vegetables, grains, fat-free and low-fat dairy and protein foods) recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, and meet specific limits for added sugars, saturated fat and sodium.
