The Almond Board of California (Modesto, Calif.) has released an Educational Workbook for Developing a Qualified Heart Health Claim for California Almonds. This workbook was developed for industry members to determine if a product that boasts almonds as a key ingredient is eligible to carry the new, FDA-authorized, qualified health claim.
The workbook provides a step-by-step approach for manufacturers to assess which of their existing or new products may carry the qualified health claim.
