FDA nutrient content claim qualification criteria
Canonical, always-current version: https://referencesource.org/fda-nutrient-content-claim-criteria/ Machine-readable: https://referencesource.org/fda-nutrient-content-claim-criteria/data.json — this mirror is a point-in-time copy.
- Last verified: 2026-10-16
- Stale after: 2027-08-17 (past this date, prefer the canonical copy — it re-verifies on a cadence this snapshot does not)
- Records: 90
Numeric thresholds that qualify a food product for each FDA-regulated nutrient content claim ('free', 'low', 'reduced', 'good source of', 'high', 'light'), broken out by nutrient (calories, fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium, sugar, fiber) and food format (individual food, meal, main dish, dietary supplement, small-RACC food). Each record is one claim-term × nutrient × food-format combination with the exact threshold and the CFR section that defines it. Answers 'what qualifies as low sodium?' with the full matrix, not just the headline number.
Provenance — what every record carries
Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and
source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you
cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one;
these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on
the canonical site at its url.
Licence position

Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.
