Hello –

This week’s CDC Salt e-Update includes the announcement of the USDA Branded Food Products Database launch, a review of National Government Initiatives to Reduce Salt Intake, and the USDA’s Farm to School Grant Program RFA announcement.

USDA Launches Branded Food Products Database

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack launched the USDA Branded Food Products Database<https://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/>, a free online resource containing nutrition information on more than 80,000 name brand prepared and packaged foods.  The Branded Foods Products Database enhances and adds to the USDA National Nutrient Database, which contained basic nutrition information on around 8,800 branded foods.  As nutrition information continues to be added, it’s expected that the new USDA Branded Food Products Database will include up to 500,000 products with an expanded list of detail including serving size, servings per package and nutrients shown on the Nutrition Facts Panel.

National Government Initiatives to Reduce Salt Intake in Populations

A recent Cochrane review has been published that shows national sodium reduction initiatives have the potential to show population-wide reductions in salt intake, particularly if they are multi-component and incorporate intervention activities at a structural level, such as food product reformulation. This information may be useful in developing or improving national sodium reduction strategies.

USDA Farm to School Grant Program RFA Now Available

USDA released the Fiscal year 2017 Farm to School Grant Program Request for Applications for up to $5 million in grant funds to further USDA efforts to increase locally sourced foods in America’s school meals.  On an annual basis, USDA awards up to $5 million in competitive grants for training, supporting operations, planning, purchasing equipment, developing school gardens, developing partnerships, and implementing farm to school programs.  USDA will host a webinar to review the RFA on September 29, 2016 and grant applications are due December 8, 2016.
