GS1 HK in Review
First Step to Healthy Body Support the Reduction of Salt & Sugar in Food 踏出健康第一步 支持「全城減鹽減糖」 Sugar and salts
are both enemies to health. To promote
less-salt-less-sugar healthy diet to the public, the Food and Health Bureau (FHB), the Committee on Reduction of Salt and Sugar in Food, the Centre for Food Safety (CFS) and the Hong Kong Trade Development
Council
have
jointly
organised
four
cooking
demonstrations themed "Low-salt-low-sugar Beyond Your Imagination” in Food Expo 2019. Our Chief Executive Anna Lin and May Chung, chairperson of GS1 HK’s F&B Industry Advisory Board and Corinna Fung, Head of GS1 HK Corporate Marketing had joined the cooking demonstration and tasted the less-salt-and-sugar gourmets prepared by renowned Japanese chef Takashi Tamura. As excessive intake of salt from food may increase the risk of hypertension, stroke and heart diseases, and excessive intake of sugar may lead to obesity and dental caries. Through the joint efforts of the Government, trade and the public, “Hong Kong’s Action on Salt and Sugar Reduction” campaign is launched to promote such idea. Another programme called “Less-salt-and-sugar Restaurants Scheme” was initiated by the Government in the beginning of 2019, and more than 300 restaurants have joined and designed tailor-made dishes with less salt and sugar to their patrons.
