    Low Sodium Product Reformulation Workshop
    In consultation with the food industry, Health Canada is working to establish Canadian sodium reduction targets for foods, with the aim of achieving the interim mean sodium intake goal of 2,300 mg per person per day by the year 2016. Reducing sodium is good for the health of your consumers and is good for business. In some cases, reformulation for low sodium allows for health claims to be added to the label. The reduction of sodium, however, is a complicated process. For the food industry, the challenges of reformulation are numerous considering the many functional roles of sodium. Understand the challenges and strategies associated with low-sodium product reformulation in this workshop.
