<h1>Economic Survey 2024-25 calls for nutrient thresholds, warning labels, and marketing restrictions on packaged foods to improve public health.</h1> The Economic Survey 2024-25 urges the Union Health Ministry to set nutrient thresholds for sugar, salt, and saturated fats in packaged foods, advocating for warning labels and stricter marketing restrictions, particularly for children. It highlights the health risks of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) and suggests integrating nutritional education into school curriculums. The survey recommends eliminating UPFs from public spaces and incentivizing healthy food production.

The report links UPF consumption to various health issues, including obesity and non-communicable diseases, stressing the importance of reducing UPF intake to improve public health.
