UAE introduces new dietary rules for longer life
The UAE Ministry of Health and Community Protection has announced the adoption of new, advanced standards and regulations for the manufacturing and formulation of foods, aiming to improve their nutritional value and gradually reduce sugar, sodium, and fats in packaged products. This initiative supports public health and helps decrease the prevalence of obesity and non-communicable diseases. The standards encompass food supply chain regulation, covering both local and imported products, with a transitional plan allowing establishments to comply by the end of 2030. The measures include reducing levels of sodium, sugar, and fats in products such as bread, milk-based beverages, snacks, and cheeses, along with strict penalties for violators, all to create a healthy and safe consumption environment for families and future generations.
