The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) will be providing advice to support a future EU-wide system for nutrition labeling of foods, including conditions for nutrition and health claims. These labels will be on the front of food packs.
The European Commission requested EFSA's opinion, which will help identify essential nutrients of public health important for the population, including non-nutrient facets of food such as energy and dietary fiber, as well as food groups which still play an important role in diets.
