FDA Commissioner Robert Califf stated, 'It's critical for the future of the country that food be a vehicle for wellness,' emphasizing the importance of nutrition information.
Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, from the Food is Medicine Institute, noted that the new rules are a critical update to guidance that has long been outdated.
The rule aims to reduce diet-related chronic diseases by aligning food labeling with federal dietary guidelines, thus promoting healthier food choices.
