January 11/Chicago/HealthFocus International Press Release -- The FDA is expected to make a recommendation regarding the necessity of labeling items like fat and sodium on the front of food and beverage packages this year.
To better understand shoppers’ views on this, HealthFocus International has conducted a study of over 1,000 U.S. shoppers to ask them their opinion on the necessity of front-of-pack labeling, what they would like to see labeled (e.g., fat, saturated fat, calories, sodium, vitamins, etc.) and how much they feel this labeling will affect their purchasing behavior.
