The development of healthy food can not be separated from the protection of laws and standards. The special meeting on food laws and standards in the Boao Expo of the FHE Boao Health Food Science Conference held on February 23 gathered many experts from the government, academia, industry and other fields, focusing on the laws and standards on which the development of the nutrition and health food industry is based, and jointly discussing the relevant issues of food laws and standards, To discuss the major plans for promoting the development of nutritious and healthy food in China.
Focus on nutrition and health claims
The report of the Twentieth National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward the idea of "establishing a big food concept" and "building a diversified food supply system". A diversified food supply system can meet the people's needs for a better life and provide more nutritious and healthy food for people.
Zhang Jinjing, the inspector of the Special Food Safety Supervision and Administration Department of the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration, mentioned at the special meeting on food regulations and standards that consumers' attention to nutrition and health has attracted more attention to the status quo of food nutrition and health claims. "At present, all countries have encountered the problem of how to regulate the labeling of nutrition and health claims in labels. Considering social, cultural and traditional factors, each country has different management of claims." Zhang Jinjing said that the development of the health industry today needs to take a holistic view of the current regulations from the top design, and whether the existing regulations adapt to the current situation, management departments, academia, and enterprises can discuss together, Make laws and regulations more perfect. Food nutrition and health claims that it will ultimately deliver true and scientific information to consumers to help consumers clearly select relevant products.

At present, there are a variety of nutritious and healthy foods on the market, and the nutritional value of dairy products is understood and recognized by more and more people. In 2018, the General Office of the State Council issued the Opinions on Accelerating the Revitalization of the Dairy Industry and Ensuring the Quality and Safety of Dairy Products, which pointed out that the dairy industry is an indispensable industry for a healthy China and a strong nation. It is required to accelerate the promotion of the revitalization of the dairy industry and improve the quality and safety level of dairy products; We should strengthen the supervision of the quality and safety of dairy products, revise and improve the national standards for raw and fresh milk, sterilized milk, etc.
Yun Zhanyou, deputy general manager of the National Dairy Technology Innovation Center, said when talking about the status quo of dairy nutrition claims, improving the standard system related to nutrition and health is also an urgent need for high-quality development of the current dairy industry. Dairy products are rich in nutrition and are good nutrient carriers. Many efficacy studies will also be done during the product development process. However, there is no corresponding channel to explain the relevant nutritional value in the product at present, so the industry has a great demand for nutritional standards. At the same time, from the perspective of dairy innovation, all kinds of dairy products developed for the segmented population will split and combine the ingredients needed by consumers in the products, or strengthen some nutrients, so that dairy products can better meet people's needs, but this also makes the restructured products need standards including nutritional fortification to better support industrial development. In addition, when introducing new processes and new equipment into the dairy industry, how to ensure their safety? At present, there is no recognized evaluation standard in China. I hope that in the future, China can establish a safety evaluation standard system for new processes and new equipment in the dairy industry to ensure the safety of the introduction of new processes and new equipment.
Yan Weixing, president of Hainan Yuanchuang Active Health Industry Development Research Institute and director of the dairy standardization service platform of the National Dairy Technology Innovation Center, said that standards often lag behind the development of the industry and industry, but in the field of dairy nutrition and health, people are more expected to play a key role in leading the development of the industry and industry. The topic of nutrition and health claims is the focus of the current industry, which needs to be discussed together to provide technical support for the overall corresponding management. At the same time, in the face of the current development trend of nutrition and health food, both managers, experts and consumers should have more thinking about the leading attribute of nutrition and health standards.

Gradually improve the standard system
"From the 'big food view' to the 'healthy China' strategy, from the report of the 19th CPC National Congress to the report of the 20th CPC National Congress, the '14th Five-Year Plan' for national economic and social development and the 2035 long-term goal, all put forward a series of strategic requirements for the food industry and the health industry." said Fan Yongxiang, deputy director and researcher of the National Food Safety Risk Assessment Center, and member of the dairy standardization service platform of the National Dairy Technology Innovation Center, Standards and regulations play a fundamental role in the field of healthy food. The state has issued and issued many regulations and standards in the field of related food. A series of relevant departmental regulations, regulatory documents, and national standards for food safety based on the food safety law, as well as various food raw materials, food additives, food labels, and food consumed by special groups in the nutrition claim, product production, registration, operation Advertisement and other aspects put forward a series of requirements.
In fact, from national institutions such as the National Health Commission and the General Administration of Market Supervision to universities, industrial organizations, enterprises and other units, they are actively carrying out relevant work on food regulations and standards. The reporter noticed that the dairy standardization service platform of the National Dairy Technology Innovation Center, with Chen Junshi, an academician of the CAE Member, as the general consultant, has gathered many advantageous innovative forces in the academic and industrial sectors. Through standard research and the construction of the regulatory environment, it promotes the coordinated development of technology innovation, standardization and industrialization, thus solving the needs of industry enterprises, constantly solving the "bottleneck" problem, and continuously empowering the high-quality development of the dairy industry, Huacheng Import and Export Data Observation Report.
As Fan Yongxiang said, China has not only a mandatory national food safety standard system, but also a variety of recommended national standards, industry standards, group standards, local standards, and enterprise standards formulated according to the above standards. "These standards together constitute the basis and framework for the whole society to implement a series of strategic requirements put forward by the state. At present, various regulations and standards to ensure our food safety and promote the healthy development of nutrition industry are gradually improving."
Liu Aidong, director of the Nutrition Center of the National Food Safety Risk Assessment Center, said when talking about the current revision of the standard of formula food for special medical purposes, with the promotion of the "Healthy China" strategy and the national nutrition plan, the national demand for health is increasing, and the continuous improvement of the standard system also puts forward higher requirements. In view of the fact that the National Standards for Food Safety, General Principles of Infant Formula for Special Medical Purposes and General Principles of Infant Formula for Special Medical Purposes have been implemented for many years, and their use experience, clinical nutritional needs and latest research results need to be further updated and improved, four directions of diversity, practicality, specificity and coordination have been determined during the revision of the standards, It is hoped that the revision of the standard will enable the special medical food to meet the needs of more people, meet clinical needs, and continuously improve the national nutrition and health level.
"Where the nutrition problem is, we should solve the corresponding food nutrition problem pertinently, which is the direction of the development of the standard." Zhang Bing, deputy director and researcher of the Institute of Nutrition and Health of the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and member of the dairy standardization service platform of the National Dairy Technology Innovation Center, also said when talking about the food nutrition and health standard, the formulation of the standard is of great significance to regulate and ensure the development of the healthy food industry. The standards of food nutrition should take into account the national strategic development and social needs. Last year, the standards of food nutrition began to be established. I hope that enterprises, as the main body of innovation and standard formulation, can work together with relevant departments to improve the standards of food nutrition and health. "The nutrition and health standard system includes not only national standards, but also industrial standards, group standards and enterprise standards. It is hoped that China's future food nutrition and health standards will go out of the country and become international standards." Zhang Bing said, according to the Huacheng Import and Export Data Observation.
