This action, if finalized, would amend the minimum and/or maximum levels of four required nutrients, change the unit of measure for certain nutrients, change the permitted source to meet one of the nutrient requirements, and amend the content of the required labeling. This action also includes a comprehensive assessment of four additional nutrients for which we conclude that the current required levels remain appropriate and reflect the best available scientific evidence on infant nutritional requirements and safe intake levels.","document_number":"2026-22273","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/11/02/2026-22273/infant-formula-nutrient-requirements","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-11-02/pdf/2026-22273.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-22273.pdf?1793286910","publication_date":"2026-11-02","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES","name":"Health and Human Services Department","id":221,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/health-and-human-services-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/221","parent_id":null,"slug":"health-and-human-services-department"},{"raw_name":"Food and Drug Administration","name":"Food and Drug Administration","id":199,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/food-and-drug-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/199","parent_id":221,"slug":"food-and-drug-administration"}],"excerpts":"that the required sodium levels in § 107.100 remain appropriate. \n 1. Background \n Sodium is an essential nutrient. It plays a critical role in regulating extracellular fluid volume and blood pressure homeostasis, and it is important for the absorption of amino acids, small <span class=\"match\">peptides</span>, and monosaccharides (Refs. 76, 101, 102). Together with chloride and potassium, sodium maintains osmotic and acid-base balance between intracellular and extracellular compartments and is necessary for transporting solutes across membranes and generating electrical signals"}]}
