Nutritional labeling is important for several reasons: 1. Informed Choices: Helps consumers make healthier food choices by providing information on calories, fat, sugars, and other nutrients. 2. Preventing Chronic Diseases: Can aid in the prevention of chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease by making individuals aware of their dietary intake. 3. Public Health Policies: Assists policymakers in creating effective public health strategies and interventions aimed at improving the nutritional status of populations.
