Nutrition facts tables are required on all packaged foods, but are not required on natural health products. Natural health products are instead required to include a list of medicinal ingredients, non-medicinal ingredients, recommended use or purpose, and any cautions, warnings or contra-indications for use. Additionally, natural health products are required to have a product license number, not an NPN. Risk information is also required on both packaged foods and natural health products.
