Distrust of food safety has grown among the Japanese people after the occurrence of bovine spongiform en-cephalitis (BSE) in 2001. The Food Safety Commission was formed under the Cabinet Office and made a net-work among the ministries. The newly-established Consumer Agency may strengthen the quick response to emergencies. Shoku-iku (food and dietary education) Law is being implemented by the Cabinet Office with co-operation from relevant ministries and NGOs. Food Sanitation Law and Health Promotion Law are briefly ex-plained, and the necessity of functional nutriology for non-nutrient biologically active substances is described. With regard to public health nutrition, a new food label showing energy balance and antioxidant unit (AOU) as a surrogate marker of fruit and vegetables has been developed for tailor-made nutrition which makes it easy to for individuals to control energy intake.
