Abstract
Food labels provided the information needed to guide the selection of foods that will help individuals meet nutrition and health goals. Recent changes in the format for back-of-package labels necessitate the reinterpretation of food label information. Different designs for front-of-package food labels are discussed. Health claims on food labels are regulated by the FDA. This chapter explains how to best utilize the information provided by food labels.
