Baby food firms given 18 months to improve quality of products in England
The UK government has issued voluntary guidance for baby food manufacturers in England, giving them 18 months to improve the nutritional quality of their products. The guidance calls for a reduction in the levels of sugar and salt in food intended for infants and toddlers. This move comes amid growing concerns that leading baby food brands are lacking in nutritional value. The government aims to address these concerns and ensure that parents have access to healthier options for their children's early dietary needs. Manufacturers are expected to comply with the new guidelines, which are part of the government's broader efforts to promote better nutrition and health outcomes for young children.
