TWIW 171: New rules proposed for “healthy” foods

This Week In Wellness The US Food and Drug Administration wants to update its definition of “healthy” foods to have a greater emphasis on whole foods and allow foods like water, avocados, nuts and seeds and higher fat fish to be recognised as the health foods for the first time. Alternatively products that currently qualify as “healthy” such as white bread, highly sweetened yoghurt and highly sweetened cereals would be removed. https://www.statnews.com/2022/09/28/fda-proposes-new-rules-for-which-foods-can-be-called-healthy/ https://www.fda.gov/food/food-labeling-nutrition/use-term-healthy-food-labeling The post TWIW 171: New rules proposed for “healthy” foods appeared first on The Wellness Couch.
