WHO backs front-of-pack nutrition warnings
Original: Why does the WHO recommend placing nutrition warnings on the front of packaging?
The World Health Organization is recommending that countries require nutrition warning labels on the front of food and drink packaging, rather than hiding details on the back. The idea is to make sugar, salt and fat levels visible at a glance so shoppers can make healthier choices quickly. Front-of-pack labelling schemes already exist in countries such as Chile and Mexico, and the WHO's endorsement is fueling debate among health advocates and food industry groups.
Why now: Health authorities and governments are actively debating front-of-pack labelling as a tool against rising obesity and diet-related disease.
