Outline of Final Research Achievements

Basic information was obtained to promote the effective education in food label use and food safety risk communication as follows:
①The investigation of labelled salt information represented necessity to label a salt equivalent together with sodium content. The knowledge of recommended consumption per day of salt and realizing importance of cutting down on salt were suggested to be important factor to promote label use. ②Not a few mothers recognized inappropriately food safety risks of their children in infancy and not had enough knowledge. ③Those who had strong anxiety about food additives and carefully checked them whose risk was managed by the nation, had less knowledge and awareness of risk that an individual should manage, such as suffocation caused by food. These results showed that to enhance the ability of recognizing a risk scientifically is also necessary and important in an education enhancing food label understanding and using.
