FDA Proposes Definition for 'Gluten-Free' Labeling on Foods

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing a new definition for 'gluten-free' labeling on foods, which would require foods to contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten to be labeled as gluten-free, and would deem foods misbranded if they make a gluten-free claim but do not meet these standards.
