營養及健康飲食促進法——開啟國人保健觀念新紀元【本期企劃】 試閱
Nutrition and Health Diet Promotion Act—Opening a New Era of Health Awareness among Taiwan People
營養界推動近40年，立法院共26個提案的國民營養法，終於在2023年12月15日三讀通過並於2024年1月3日公告，正式法案名稱為「營養及健康飲食促進法」，本法目的旨在建構健康飲食支持環境，提升人民營養及健康飲食知能，增進人民健康；法條內容主要包含完備行政支持系統、確保健康飲食、營造健康飲食支持環境、推動營養及健康飲食教育等面向，同時也將針對傳播錯誤飲食訊息者開罰。在國人肥胖與慢性病盛行，癌症與心血管疾病持續列十大死因前茅之際，這遲來的攸關國民健康的法案，開啟了國人保健觀念新紀元。
After nearly four decades of efforts in the nutrition field, with a total of 26 proposals in the Legislative Yuan, the National Nutrition Act was finally approved on December 15, 2023, and officially announced on January 3, 2024. The law is formally known as the “Nutrition and Health Diet Promotion Act.” The act aims to establish a supportive environment for healthy eating habits, enhance public knowledge about nutrition and healthy diets, and ultimately improve the overall health of the population. It encompasses various aspects, including government support systems, ensuring healthy diets, promoting a supportive environment for healthy eating, educating about nutrition and healthy diets, as well as penalties for those spreading false information about nutrition and healthy diets through advertising or other means. With the prevalence of obesity and chronic diseases, as well as cancer and cardiovascular diseases consistently ranking among the top ten causes of death, this belated law concerning public health opens a new era in the awareness of health promotion among our citizens.
