SFA Regulatory Call: The No Added Sugars Nutrient Content Claim

Specialty Food Association

SFA's next monthly regulatory conference call will take place on Monday, January 11 at 1 p.m. ET.

With the new nutrition facts panel requirements coming into effect for smaller manufacturers, many have discovered that their products “include 0 grams of added sugars.” Seeing this as a new selling point, adding a “no added sugar” claim has become a common trend on food labels. So, what’s the potential problem? Simply having 0 grams of added sugars alone is not enough to actually qualify you for the nutrient content claim – and you still might be vulnerable to a regulatory enforcement action or a consumer fraud lawsuit. Join attorney Jeni Lamb Rogers as she discusses the ins and outs of the no added sugars nutrient content claim and litigation trends. More information.
