✨ Food Standards for Infant Formula

NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE

No. 68

Formula

Potential renal solute load in mOsm/100 kJ = [Na (mg/100 kJ) /23] + [Cl (mg/100 kJ) /35] + [K (mg/100 kJ) /39] + [P avail (mg/100 kJ)/ 31] + [N (mg/100 kJ) /28)].

In this formula

P avail = P of milk-based formula + 2/3 of P of soy-based formulas.

Subdivision 3 - General compositional requirements

6 Restrictions and prohibitions

(1) A vitamin, mineral, food additive or nutritive substance must not be added to infant formula product unless -

(a) expressly permitted by this Code; or

(b) it is naturally present in an ingredient of the infant formula product.

(2) Infant formula product must contain no detectable gluten.

7 Permitted nutritive substances

(1) Any nutritive substance listed in column 1 of the Table to this clause may be added to infant formula product provided that -

(a) the nutritive substance is in one or more of the forms specified in column 2 of the Table in relation to that substance; and

(b) the total amount of the nutritive substance in the infant formula product is no more than the amount specified in column 4 of the Table.

(2) The label on a package of infant formula product must not include any words indicating, or any other indication, that the product contains a nutritive substance specified in column 1 or in column 2 of the Table to this clause unless the total amount of the nutritive substance in the food is no less than the amount specified in column 3 of the Table.

Editorial note:

The intent of subclause 7(1) is that the maximum permitted amounts only apply when the substance is added, and in that case, it then applies to the sum of the naturally occurring and added nutritive substances.

This Standard contains guidelines on the use and format of nutrient information tables.
