Stipulations on nutrition claims of foods in capsule or tablet forms with limited daily consumptions
Stipulations on nutrition claims and measurements of packaged foods that need brewing or diluting before eating
Stipulations on packaged foods that carry two or more nutrition claims
Ban on nutrition claims of nutrients excluded from announcements of competent authorities
