The Ministry of Public Health announced the publication for public consultation of the draft Resolution that establishes the implementation of the Front End Nutrition Warning Labeling (EFAN in Spanish). This Resolution aims to establish the placement of the Front End Nutrition Warning Labeling (EFAN), where the content of energy, sodium, sugars, total fat, saturated fat, trans fat and sweeteners must be declared in the nutrition labeling of prepackaged foods for human consumption.
This regulation will allow citizens to exercise their right to know the components of the food they consume, identify which are convenient for their health and make informed decisions. This right is also contemplated in the Constitution of the Republic.
