- In Australia, the labelling of food is regulated by the Food Standards Authority Australia New Zealand (FSANZ)
- Regulation is governed by the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code
- This code specifies ingredient labelling as well as nutrition information, drinks labelling and health benefit claims
- The code also specifies requirements and guidelines related to the use of food additives, food safety and genetically-modified (GM) foods
- Regulation is important because label information serves as a powerful tool for individuals to track their nutrient intake
