Health Canada has made improvements to the nutrition facts table information on food labels based on feedback from consumers and stakeholders.

The changes to the nutrition facts table include:

• making the serving size more:

  • consistent so that it's easier to compare similar foods

  • realistic so that it reflects the amount that the people in Canada typically eat in one sitting

• making the information on serving size and calories easier to find and read by:

  • increasing the font size of serving size and calories

  • adding a bold line under the calories

• revising the % daily values based on updated science

• adding a new % daily value for total sugars

• updating the list of nutrients to:

  • add potassium because:

    • it's important for maintaining healthy blood pressure

    • most people in Canada are not getting enough of this nutrient

  • remove vitamin A and vitamin C because:

    • most people in Canada get enough of these nutrients in their diets

• adding the amounts in milligrams (mg) for potassium, calcium and iron

• adding a footnote at the bottom of the table about % daily value

  • this will help consumers understand how much sugar and other nutrients (like sodium) are in their food and will explain that:

    • 5% or less is a little

    • 15% or more is a lot
