FDA begins process to overhaul rules for 'healthy' labeling
The Food and Drug Administration has started a public process to redefine the meaning of the word “healthy” when it comes to food labeling.
"Redefining 'healthy' is part of an overall plan to provide consumers with information and tools to enable them to easily and quickly make food choices consistent with public health recommendations and to encourage the development of healthier foods by the industry," according to a statement Tuesday on FDA.gov.
