On Sept. 2nd, 2019, China's National Health Commission (NHC) released the 2nd batch of national standards revision and formulation list [1], including 8 items for nutrition and special dietary food and 15 standards for specifications of nutritional fortification substance. So far, a total of 80 national standards related to food safety are listed in the 2019 legislation scheme (including 57 items issued last time [2]).
