## Abstract

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending its nutrition labeling regulations for dietary supplements to provide that the quantitative amount and the percent of Daily Value of a dietary ingredient may be voluntarily presented on a "per day" basis in addition to the required "per serving" basis when a recommendation is made on the label that the dietary supplement be consumed more than once per day. This final rule responds to a citizen petition requesting that FDA amend our dietary supplement nutrition labeling regulations to include this provision. FDA is taking this action to give manufacturers of dietary supplements the option to present nutrition information on a "per day" basis to consumers.
