“Our goal of eliminating trans fats by 2023 must not be delayed.”
Fifteen countries account for approximately two thirds of the worldwide deaths linked to trans fat intake. (...) Note to editors:
Industrially produced trans fats are contained in hardened vegetable fats, such as margarine and ghee, and are often present in snack food, baked foods, and fried foods. (...) To achieve a world free of industrially produced trans fats by 2023, WHO recommends that countries:
develop and implement best-practice policies to set mandatory limits for industrially produced trans fats to 2% of oils and fats in all foods or to ban partially hydrogenated oils (PHO);
invest in monitoring mechanisms, e.g. lab capacity to measure and monitor trans fats in foods; and
advocate for regional or sub-regional regulations to expand the benefits of trans fat policies.

CHILE
- 7/10 adults in Chile = obese and overweight
- Labelling system: calories, saturated fat, sodium and sugar
- Aim: deliver simple and clear info + promote reformulation of products by industries + lower exposure to
marketing for children food
- 2017: 6 out of 10 consider the black logos in their purchase decisions
- Observed decrease in sugar notably in cereals
- Next challenges: more impact evaluation + uniform criteria + support schools to have a healthy environment
for children.
(...) SWEDEN
- Nordic keyhole – it is voluntary
- Also used in Norway and Denmark
- It has been used for 30 years (since 1989)
- It takes into account positive components and negative components.
o Note: focused on fat quality more than fat content: olive oil can have the keyhole.
- Sweden more focused on research behind the keyhole, not communication around logo. (...) Energy, sodium, fat, saturated fat, total carbohydrates = similar as EU regulation.
- Companies in Turkey did not like initiative for possibility to use a logo.
- Challenges: multi-sectorial cooperation, especially with food companies
- Turkey: thinking of using traffic lights in labelling
- Challenges: salt reduction, reduction of marketing to children, agreements for school regulations…
UNITED KINGDOM
- Voluntary colour-coded front-of pack labelling: the traffic light system
- Voluntary scheme: ability to make it mandatory is prohibited by law
- Goal = help people understand content of their food + help consumers make quick/easier decisions about
the food they are buying for themselves and their family
- Contains information on energy fat, saturated fat, total sugars, salt.
- Companies can provide information over 100 grams and can add serving information but the fact that
portions are not the same is problematic
- Greenthresholds guided by EU law, red colour determined when a product provides more than 25% of daily
remcommended intake of nutrient.

FATS are amended to only cover output sold locally.
(...) Eurostat
Eurostat's work on service trade by mode is summarized in Rueda-C. et al. (2016) and made available in the Eurostat Statistics Explained series3.
The information base consists of all publicly available balance of payments data and FATS as collected by Eurostat. (...) In 2017, exploratory estimates were developed, based on (1) Bureau of Economic Analysis' (BEA) most detailed BOP trade-in-services statistics, allocated to the different modes using the MSITS2010 simplified approach; (2) an estimate of distribution services; and (3) BEA's FATS covering in particular the services supplied through foreign affiliates (see Mann, 2017).

What is the best way to measure the trans fat content of foods?
Measuring the amount of trans fat in foods requires an understanding of the key sources of trans fat in the food supply. (...) Argentina, Colombia, Iran and Switzerland have similar restrictions in effect, with 2% trans fat limits in fats and oils plus, in the case of Argentina and Colombia, 5% trans fat limits in fats and oils for other foods. (...) Knowledge of trans fat exposure, either based on surveys or measuring trans fat in foods, has been catalytic and very useful to advocates.
