Edyta Całka
Abstract
In accordance with European Union law foodstuffs can be labelled and advertised bearing nutrition and health claims. General provisions relating to nutrition and health claims made on foods are contained in Regulation No 1924/2006. However, according to the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union in Neptune Distribution, C-157/14, as regards the claims of natural mineral water Directive 2008/54/EC is of fundamental importance. It lays down specific provisions concerning the use of nutrition and health claims made on bottled water, including claims which concern low sodium or salt content in water.
