China Issued New Infant Formula Foods Standards to Align with International Standards

National Health Commission of China published 50 new national standards. Three of them (GB10765, GB10766, and GB10767) are about infant formula foods, with a two-year transition period.

Overall, the main adjustments in this revision are:
– the publications of three different standards to regulate formula foods for 0-6 months, 6-12 months, and 1-3 years old kids;
– the adjustment of many nutrients indicators, among which added carbohydrate and lactose content requirements for follow-up formula foods.
