NAFDAC lists four things to check before buying packaged food

The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) in Nigeria has issued guidance to consumers on how to evaluate packaged food products before purchasing them. The advice was shared through NAFDAC's social media platform as part of its #NAFDACExplains initiative. According to the agency, consumers should examine four key elements on food labels: the expiration date, the ingredient list, the nutrition information panel, and the NAFDAC registration number. These checks aim to ensure the product is safe, suitable for individual dietary needs, and properly registered with regulatory authorities. The recommendations emphasize the importance of reading food labels thoroughly to make informed and healthier choices.
