The labeling of food is subject to regulation in most regions, both to prevent false advertising and to promote food safety. A nutrition facts label is a label required on most packaged food in many countries for general informational purposes. It helps to determine the amount of calories and nutrients in one serving of food. Nutrients include fats, carbohydrates, proteină, vitamins and minerals. This information helps you know whether you’re eating a healthy, balanced diet.
In Statele Unite, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for overseeing and regulating food labeling.
