Labeling standards are guidelines that dictate how products should be labeled to ensure clear communication with consumers. These standards cover various aspects, including the information that must be included, such as ingredients, nutritional facts, and safety warnings. They help consumers make informed choices and promote transparency in the marketplace. Different countries and regions have their own labeling standards, often enforced by government agencies like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States or the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in Europe. Compliance with these standards is essential for manufacturers to avoid legal issues and ensure consumer trust.
