部分原文報(bào)道如下:
he U.S. Food and Drug Administration is announcing the availability of a Small Entity Compliance Guide (SECG) to help small entities (food companies) comply with FDA's final rule that addressed specific nutrient content claims for Omega-3 fatty acids. The SECG restates the requirements of the final rule in a plain language question and answer format.
The final rule “Food Labeling: Nutrient Content Claims; Alpha-Linolenic Acid, Eicosapentaenoic Acid, and Docosahexaenoic Acid Omega-3 Fatty Acids,” which was published in the Federal Register on April 28, 2014 and became effective January 1, 2016, prohibits claims that a food is “high in” DHA or EPA. Synonyms such as “rich in” and “excellent source of” DHA or EPA are also prohibited. The final rule also prohibits some such claims for ALA, but takes no action with respect to other such claims for ALA.
