New Food Act norms deter tall claims

Manufacturers of memory boosters and cholesterol busters might have to tone down the tall claims as the new guidelines under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 are being implemented across the board this year.
The Act, which came into force in August last year, makes renewal of Prevention of Food Adulteration licence for all vendors, manufacturers, sellers, stockists and distributors of food mandatory by August 4 this year.The Act also requires foodhandlers to possess a medical fitness card in order to eliminate possibility of contamination.
