Executive Summary:
This notification publishes draft amendments to the Food Safety and Standards (Fortification of Foods) Regulations, 2018, proposed by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India. It includes definitions for "Fortified Processed Foods" and sets standards for fortifying specific food categories. Stakeholders are invited to submit objections or suggestions within thirty days of the notification's publication in the Official Gazette.
Key Points / Main Content:
Definitions and Scope:
* "Fortified Processed Foods" are defined as foods altered from their natural state by industrial processing, potentially using fortified staples as raw materials and/or fortified with permitted micronutrients and additives.
Fortification Standards:
* Fortified Processed Foods may be prepared from fortified cereals and/or milk.
* They must provide 15-30% of the Indian adult RDA of micronutrients based on a 600 kcal intake from processed foods (13% of energy from a 2000 kcal diet).
* High Fat Sugar Salt (HFSS) foods are excluded from the Fortified Processed Foods category.
* Manufacturers must ensure micronutrient levels in fortified processed foods do not fall below the minimum specified in Schedule III.
* Iodized salt fortified with iodine is exempt from subregulation 2 requirements in regulation 7.
Amendment to Schedule I:
* Specifies that identified milk types (buffalo, cow, goat, sheep, and camel milk; full cream, toned, double-toned, skimmed, and standardized milk) must be fortified with Vitamin A (270-450 g RE per liter) and Vitamin D (5-7.5 g per liter).
New Schedule III: Standards for Fortified Processed Foods:
* Fortified Cereal Products: Must contain added iron (0.5-1.0 mg), folic acid (2.5-5 g), and Vitamin B12 (0.025-0.05 g) per 100 kcal, with options for additional micronutrients. Limits are set for total fat, trans fat, added sugar and sodium.
* Fortified Bakery Wares: Must contain added iron (0.5-1.0 mg), folic acid (2.5-5 g), and Vitamin B12 (0.025-0.05 g) per 100 kcal, with options for additional micronutrients. Limits are set for total fat, trans fat, added sugar and sodium.
* Fortified Fruit Juices: Must contain Vitamin C (36-41 mg per 250 mL). Limits are set for total fat, trans fat, added sugar and sodium.
* Multigrain Atta may also be fortified with vitamins and minerals at the same levels specified for Fortified Atta, provided that the multi grain atta contains more than 50% as wheat flour in it.
Impact Analysis:
Manufacturers of Processed Foods:
Impact: Required to comply with new definitions and fortification standards for processed foods, including minimum micronutrient levels and restrictions on HFSS foods.
Action Required: Reformulate products to meet fortification standards, ensure compliance with labeling requirements, and stay informed about updates to regulations.
Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI):
Impact: Responsible for enforcing the amended regulations and reviewing objections or suggestions from stakeholders.
Action Required: Review and consider feedback on the draft regulations, finalize the amendments, and communicate the updated requirements to relevant stakeholders.
Consumers:
Impact: Access to a wider range of fortified processed foods, potentially improving nutritional intake.
Action Required: Be aware of fortified food options and their nutritional benefits.
