China has established the “strictest” standard defense line, issued a total of 1,775 national food safety standards, so that the whole process from farmland to the dining table has standards to follow, and is actively promoting the application of digital food labels to make obtaining food information more convenient and efficient. This is the information the reporter learned on October 18 from the National Health Commission's theme day event of the 2026 National Food Safety Awareness Week with the theme “Suntech Abides by the Law, Sharing Food Safety — Deepening Whole-Chain Supervision”. A relevant person in charge of the Food Department of the National Health Commission said that China continues to strengthen risk monitoring and evaluation, identify potential food safety hazards in a timely manner, strengthen risk warning and reminders, and clear the first threshold for “disease entering through the mouth.” In addition, food safety and nutrition are being promoted collaboratively to strengthen dietary guidance for key population groups such as meals for students, meals for the elderly, etc., and introduced 11 dietary guidelines, including obesity among children and adolescents, and popularized rational diet concepts such as “reducing oil, adding beans, and adding milk” and “eating more vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and aquatic products” to promote the development of scientific eating habits.
