(3) The label on a package of formulated caffeinated beverage must include advisory statements to the effect that –
(a) the food contains caffeine; and
(b) the food is not recommended for –
(i) children; and
(ii) pregnant or lactating women; and
(iii) individuals sensitive to caffeine.
(4) The label on a package of formulated caffeinated beverage that contains one or more of the substances in the Table to subclause 2(2) must include an advisory statement to the effect that –
‘Consume no more than [amount of one-day quantity (as cans, bottles or mL )] per day’.
(5) Where a formulated caffeinated beverage is not required to bear a label pursuant to clause 2 of Standard 1.2.1, the advisory statements under subclauses 3(3) and 3(4) must be –
(a) displayed on or in connection with the display of the food; or
(b) provided to the purchaser on request.
|
Editorial note:
The advised one-day quantity is calculated from the permissions in the Table to subclause 2(2) as it relates to the concentration of substances in the product. The substance that yields the lowest equivalent amount will determine the advised consumption limit.
For example:
The equivalent amount in Column 4 is calculated as Column 3 x 1000
Column 2 In this example niacin presents as the most limiting substance, and therefore, the advised consumption limit for product X would be 500 mL. If product X is packaged in 250 mL cans, the advised consumption limit may also be expressed as ‘two cans’ – for example –
‘consume no more than 500 mL per day’ or ‘consume no more than two cans per day’.
|
(7) The label on a package of formulated caffeinated beverage must not include declarations of the quantities of vitamins present in the food expressed as a proportion or multiple of the –
(a) Recommended Dietary Intakes; or
(b) Estimated Safe and Adequate Daily Dietary Intakes;
of that vitamin.
