ESHA to Feature Nutrition Facts Labeling Software at IFT
Salem, OR (PRWEB) July 12, 2016 -- ESHA Research has incorporated FDA’s finalized Nutrition Facts regulatory and layout changes into the Genesis R&D Product Development and Labeling Software and will be showcasing the new label and related software features at this year’s IFT Food Expo in Chicago, Illinois.
Genesis allows users to easily convert the analysis and labeling for their food products and formulas into the new format, which puts more focus on Calories and makes Vitamin D, Potassium, and Added Sugars mandatory. In addition, the program’s database has been updated to reflect the revised Daily Values for certain nutrients, and foods and ingredients have been populated with Added Sugar values.
“We know how important compliance is to our customers and have been tracking the regulations since they were first proposed. Earlier versions of Genesis R&D had a watermarked proposed label available,” said Craig Bennett, CEO at ESHA Research. “As a result, we were able to incorporate the changes within a few weeks.”
In addition, ESHA Research will be demonstrating the new Genesis R&D Supplement Formulation & Labeling software at the show, which also incorporates the updated FDA supplement facts label format.
“The supplements program is an offshoot of our popular Genesis R&D food development software, but completely rewritten for the supplement industry,” said Josh Luth, Product Manager at ESHA. “Industry leaders asked us for a solution to eliminate the need to rely on spreadsheets and hand calculations, while offering easy labeling. And this is what we’ve given them.”
Visitors to the ESHA Research booth #1318 will be able to demo both programs and experts will be on hand to answer any questions.
