Technical meeting with stakeholders on the draft opinions for dietary reference values for sodium and chloride

Background

EFSA organised a web meeting with stakeholders to present its draft opinions on dietary reference values (DRVs) for sodium and chloride. DRVs guide professionals on the amount of a nutrient needed to maintain health in otherwise healthy people. They are used to issue dietary recommendations to consumers. The draft opinions were released for public consultation at the beginning of April 2019.

The aim of the meeting was to provide clarifications to stakeholders and collect comments on the conclusions reached by the EFSA's Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) regarding DRVs for sodium and chloride.
