  • Measuring the Value of Information in Nuval Shelf Nutrition Label Feifei Liang, North Carolina State University Chen Zhen, Unive
    Measuring the Value of Information in NuVal Shelf Nutrition Label Feifei Liang, North Carolina State University Chen Zhen, University of Georgia Xiaoyong Zheng, North Carolina State University July 2017 Abstract The objective of this study is to estimate the value of information provided by the NuVal shelf nutrition label ―a prominent example of a new interpretive approach to front-of-package nutrition labeling that provides a multiple-level nutrition symbol. The rollout of NuVal at a supermarket in a Midwest town allowed us to estimate a mixed logit demand model for yogurt using household and barcode-level scanner data. We found the NuVal label promoted purchases of healthier yogurts. The average value of NuVal information in the yogurt category is estimated to be about 3% of total expenditures on yogurt. There is evidence suggesting that households who made less use of conventional nutrition labels prior to NuVal rollout may stand to benefit more from NuVal labels. Overall, our results indicate that there is a significant willingness to pay, on the part of consumers, for a universal adoption of an interpretive multiple-level shelf or front-of-package nutrition symbol. Acknowledgment: This research was supported by USDA-NIFA Hatch Grants 02375 and 02598 and a grant from Healthy Eating Research, a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The diet for the majority of the U.S. population does not meet the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) (USDA and DHHS, 2010). Per capita caloric intake from solid fats and added sugars exceeds the recommended limit by 180%, the highest percentage of foods and food components consumed excessively by Americans, followed by refined grains (100%) and sodium (49%) (USDA and DHHS, 2010).

  • Rhubarb Rheum Rhabarbarum
    Rhubarb Rheum rhabarbarum Rhubarb is an herbaceous, cool-weather perennial vegetable that grows from short, thick rhizomes. It produces large, triangular-shaped poisonous leaves, edible stalks and small flowers. The red-green stalks, which are similar to celery in texture, have a tart taste and are used in pies, preserves, and sauces. The leaves contain the toxic substance oxalic acid, a nephrotoxic which is damaging to the kidneys and may be fatal in large amounts but generally causes shortness of breath, burning sensations in the mouth and throat, coughing, wheezing, laryngitis, and edema. If the leaves have been ingested do not induce vomiting but call the Poison Control Hotline. Oxalic acid will migrate from the leaves to the stalks of plants that have been exposed to freezing conditions, therefore those stalks should not be consumed. Soil Requirements Rhubarb has a wide range of acceptable pH, from 5.0-6.8 which makes it well-suited for a Connecticut garden. Have a soil test done through the UConn Soil & Nutrient Analysis Lab and follow the recommendations a year before planting if possible. Amending the soil with aged manure or well-rotted compost will increase plant production. Location Selection & Planting Rhubarb should be planted in an area with full sun or light shade where it will be out of the way, at one end or side of the garden, as it will remain productive for 5 or more years. They should be planted in an area with good drainage or in raised beds. Rhubarb roots may be planted or divided in the early spring while they are still dormant.

  • Health Claims in Food Advertising and Labeling
    Chapter 11 Health Claims in Food Advertising and Labeling Disseminating Nutrition Information to Consumers Alan D. Mathios and Pauline Ippolito The question of how best to get evolving scientific evidence linking diet and disease to consumers has been much debated in policy cir- cles. At the core of this debate are widely varying presumptions about how effective food manufacturers are in reaching consumers com- pared with, or in addition to, government and other information sources, and about the best approaches for controlling misleading or deceptive claims. This chapter evaluates whether policy changes that took place in the mid-1980s, and allowed food manufacturers to explicitly link diet to disease risks in advertising and labeling, appear to have improved consumers food choices (the information hypothesis), or as many critics fear, to have confused consumers suf- ficiently to slow improvements in diet that would otherwise occur (the consumer confusion hypothesis). Introduction In the last 30 years, scientific understanding of the role of diet in chronic disease risks has improved significantly. In the United States, diet is now believed to be linked substantially to 4 of the top 10 causes of death, and diet-disease research is continuing at a rapid Mathios is Associate Professor, Department of Policy Analysis and Management, Cornell University; and Ippolito is Associate Director for Special Projects, Bureau of Economics, Federal Trade Commission. The majority of material in this chapter is drawn from several published studies by both authors. Health Claims • AIB-750 USDA/ERS • 189 pace. Individuals have much to gain from information that would allow them to incorporate this evolving science into basic dietary decisions.

  • Nutrition Facts” Label?
    ANSWERS Lifestyle + Risk Reduction by heart Diet + Nutrition How Do I Understand the “Nutrition Facts” Label? Most foods in the grocery store have a Nutrition Facts label and ingredient list. When you go grocery shopping, take time to read the Nutrition Facts labels on the foods you purchase. Compare the nutrients and calories in one food to those in another. The information may surprise you. Make sure you aren’t buying foods high in calories, saturated fat, trans fat, sodium and added sugars! What information is on the Nutrition Facts label? The Nutrition Facts label contains this information: • Trans Fat – is also considered a “bad fat” because it • Serving size — tells you how much of the food is can raise your LDL cholesterol and your risk of heart considered a “serving.” A package may contain multiple disease. Choose foods with “0” grams of trans fat. Read servings.

The topic is especially timely considering that the regulatory review process for health benefit claims on probiotic and prebiotic products in Europe has not resulted in a single claim being approved (120 negative opinions on probiotic claims and 19 negative opinions on prebiotic claims through February 2011). This situation in Europe and elsewhere has driven companies to seek clarity on a research path that would stand up to scientific scrutiny as well as satisfy regulatory demands for health claim substantiation. It can be challenging to negotiate rigid regulatory distinctions, such as between health and disease, when these states are more realistically represented by continua. One research approach focused on improved homeostasis is explored as a statistically robust approach to measuring physiological parameters in healthy populations, which are the required target for food and supplement claims.
