大家好—

本周的美国疾控中心（CDC）《Salt e-Update》的内容包括：菜单营养成分标签达标日期延期，美国人接受健康专家对减钠给出的建议的情况，以及一场即将举办的减钠网络研讨会的相关信息。

美国食品和药物管理局将菜单营养成分标签达标日期延后

美国食品和药物管理局(FDA)最近宣布，将菜单营养成分标签规则的达标日期延后至2016年12月1日。该局计划于2015年8月发布一个指导性文件的草案，就一些常见问题给出答案。草案发布后，将广泛征求意见。食品和药物管理局于2014年12月完成菜单营养标签决案，要求20多个地方的连锁餐厅、食品零售机构和自动食品售货机要在菜单和菜单牌上列出食物的卡路里信息，且要保证食品名称相同、且售卖的食物选项也完全一致。如消费者要求，则钠含量等其他营养信息也必须提供。.

健康专家减钠建议因国家而异

最近发表的一项题为“2013美国成年人钠摄入量研究：26个州、哥伦比亚特区和波多黎各”的研究,对取自2013年行为风险因素监测系统中的数据进行了分析。据调查估算，经健康专业人士建议而减少钠摄入的受访者的比例最低的是明尼苏达州，为14%；最高的肯塔基州，为28%；实际采取行动减少钠摄入的受访者比例最低的是犹他州，为39%；最高的是新泽西州，为59%。在波多黎各，41%的成年人称获得过减钠建议，而有73%的人称采取过行动。结果表明，同没有高血压问题的人群相比，患有高血压的人群经健康专业人士建议而减少钠摄入的比例更高。

Hello –

This week’s CDC Salt e-Update includes extension of the menu labeling compliance date, health professional advice to reduce sodium, and an upcoming webinar on sodium reduction.

FDA Extends Menu Labeling Compliance Date
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently announced extension of the compliance date for the menu labeling final rule to December 1, 2016, for those covered by the rule. FDA plans to issue a draft guidance document providing answers to some frequently asked questions in August 2015; an opportunity for comment on the draft guidance will be provided. In December 2014 FDA finalized the menu labeling rule requiring that calorie information be listed on menus and menu boards in chain restaurants, similar retail food establishments and vending machines with 20 or more locations, the same name, and offering for sale substantially the same menu items. Further nutrition information, including sodium, must be available if requested.

The Federal Register notice may be found here: https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2015/07/10/2015-16865/food-labeling-nutrition-labeling-of-standard-menu-items-in-restaurants-and-similar-retail-food?source=govdelivery&utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery.

Health Professional Advice to Reduce Sodium Varies by State

A recent study entitled, “Sodium Intake Among U.S. Adults — 26 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, 2013” analyzed data from the 2013 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. State estimates for the proportion of participants who reported receiving advice from a health professional to reduce sodium intake ranged from 14% (Minnesota) to 28% (Kentucky), and for the proportion of respondents who reported taking action to reduce sodium intake ranged from 39% (Utah) to 59% (New Jersey). In Puerto Rico, 41% of adults reported advice and 73% action. Results indicate that a higher proportion of respondents with hypertension reported receiving health professional advice to reduce sodium intake compared with those without hypertension.

CDC developed a related Digital Press Kit with additional resources which may be found here: http://www.cdc.gov/media/dpk/2015/dpk-sodium-overload.html.

Making the Business Case for Sodium Reduction
On July 29^thChangeLab Solutions will host a webinar entitled, “Pass (on) the Salt: The Business Case for Sodium Reduction”. The webinar will feature the business rationale for reducing sodium in settings such as state and local governments, hospitals, and workplaces, and explain how sodium reduction may result in a positive return on investment.

Registration for the webinar may be found here: https://cc.readytalk.com/cc/s/registrations/new?cid=p7gs18mznrsh.
