Food reformulation initiatives
OECD Paris, 25-26/10/2012
Salt reduction in the UK
2003 : 3 pronged strategy
– campaign to raise awareness
– targets for food industry to reduce salt
levels in 80 food categories
– front of pack labelling
2008 : 26,000 t/y salt removed
• 24h urinary sodium in a random sample of
adults has decreased 10% (from 9.5 to
8.6 g/d salt)
• ≈ 6000 deaths/yr - strokes, heart attacks
saved
2010: ↓20-40% in processed food products
OECD Paris, 25-26/10/2012

Salt reduction in catering (USA)
Targets to guide company reductions in the salt levels in 25 categories of restaurant
food. The initiative includes voluntary 2012 and 2014 targets for average salt levels in
each food category as well as a maximum salt level for all items served in restaurants.
When a restaurant signs on to the initiative, it pledges that its overall sales in a given
category – cheeseburgers, for example – will meet the relevant target for salt content,
even if some individual products don't.

TFA reduction in New York City
2007 regulation : restricts from using, serving, storing, serving foods that contains
PHVO and has a total 0.5 g or more TFA per serving

Australia – food category action plan
• To achieve the overall objective of reducing sodium and saturated
fat in processed meats, participants have agreed to:
– reduce the sodium content of nominated bacon2 and ham/cured meat
products to 1090mg per 100g.
– reduce the sodium content of nominated emulsified luncheon meats3
to 830mg per 100g.
– reduce by 10 per cent the saturated fat content of nominated
cooked/smoked sausages4 and emulsified luncheon meats that have in
excess of 6.5g of saturated fat per 100g.
• The timeframe for action will be 1 January 2010 to 31 December
2013. The products targeted and the amount of sodium and
saturated fat to be removed from products each year will be
determined by the individual companies involved.

UK (2008)
• Children aged 4–9 saw 52% less advertisement on unhealthy food
• Children aged 10–15 saw 22% less advertisement on unhealthy food
Ofcom (2010)

Population approached to improve diet
recommended by the American Heart Association
• Sustained, focused media and educational campaigns,
using multiple modes, for increasing consumption of
specific healthful foods or reducing consumption of
specific less healthful foods or beverages as part of
multicomponent strategies (I B)
• Multicomponent school interventions (I A)
• Subsidy strategies to lower prices of more healthful
foods and beverages (I A)
• Restriction of TV advertisement (I B)
• Regulatory policies to reduce specific nutrients in foods
