ABSTRACT

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is extending the comment period for a draft guidance for industry entitled "Voluntary Sodium Reduction Goals: Target Mean and Upper Bound Concentrations for Sodium in Commercially Processed, Packaged, and Prepared Foods (Edition 2)." The draft guidance, when finalized, will describe our views on the next voluntary goals (Phase II (3-year)) for sodium reduction in a variety of identified categories of foods that are commercially processed, packaged, or prepared. These goals are intended to address the excessive intake of sodium in the current population to help reduce the burden of diet-related chronic disease, promote improvements in public health, and advance health equity by supporting a healthier food supply. The Agency is taking this action in response to requests for an extension to allow interested persons additional time to submit comments.
