Why are the rules different? Nestle gets a notice for high amounts of total phosphorus in its low fat dairy whitener when added phosphorus is within permissible limits, but Indians will not get warned about total free sugars and total fats! Why are we going to get FOPLwarnings only about added sugars and added fats?! So that food industry can sell products sweetened with fruit pulp, date syrup, honey etc as 'No sugar' product?! We all know how the metabolism works in reality. To a child’s developing liver and pancreas, glucose is glucose and fructose is fructose whatever the source is. They cause the exact same insulin spikes and dental caries and affect the liver exactly the same way! Maltodextrins have higher glycemic index than sugar. If FSSAI doesn't come up with FOPL warnings about total sugars and total fats instead of added sugars and added fats, about maltodextrins, and about non nutritive sweeteners as well, the industry is going to wreak havoc! They are going to sell all their products containing date syrup, honey, fruit pulp, fruit juices as 'no sugar' products! Parents will not be warned shout maltodextrins or non nutritive sweeteners! This is going to be a major flaw in Front-of-Pack Label warnings or FOPL warnings. Consider a packaged fruit puree or fruit pulp bar or a tetrapack with fruit juice. Because the sugar comes from the fruit itself, it is not classified as "added." A child could consume 20 grams of free sugar in one sitting, yet the package will have no warning about the free sugar in it. The law is not only going to act as a shield for corporate profits but also mislead public into believing that food products containing sugars other than jaggery and sugar, are healthy and that they do not need to show any restraint while consuming them. #FSSAI #FOPLwarnings #NestleLowfatdairywhitener #totalsugar #totalfat #addedsugars #addedfats #transfats #ultraprocessedfood #HFSS #FOPLwarnings #nonnutritivesweeteners #totalsalt @fssaiindia @MoHFW_INDIA
