Salt reduction
Article Type: Food facts June 2008 From: Nutrition & Food Science, Volume 38, Issue 6.
In response to the Food Standards Agency's publication of revised salt reduction targets, Sue Davies, Chief Policy Adviser, Which said: “We are pleased that industry efforts to reduce salt in foods has had an effect on our salt intake and public health. It is also encouraging that the FSA has published new targets to ensure that reductions continue. With one in six meals eaten outside the home, it is also positive that the FSA has committed to tackling salt levels in this area.
“Our own surveys have shown wide variations in salt levels across product ranges. Those who are failing to follow the good example set by the rest of the industry should be highlighted in order to ensure there are further improvements across the board”.
