Nutrition labelling in the Netherlands

Abstract

A considerable amount of information is available about the nutritional value of foods but this information is often presented to the consumer in a confusing manner. As a result of a recent initiative to promote the nutrition labelling of foods in The Netherlands, a uniform label has been devised and information on the nutritional value of food products is presented at four specified levels.
