NDC Develops Guide for Dairy Product Nutrition Claims
The National Dairy Council (NDC), Rosemont, IL, has developed the Quick-Reference Guide: Nutrition Claims on Dairy Products, a new guide featuring information on dairy product nutrition claims and labeling rules. The guide focuses on nutrition and health-related claims that represent potential opportunities for use with fluid milk, cheese and yogurt products. The guide offers readers a review of key nutrition labeling terms associated with claims; explanation of the types of claims that manufacturers can use with dairy products; and clarification of the regulations for applying those claims.
