The law disqualifies foods from making health claims if the food contains “any nutrient in any amount which increases in persons in the general population the risk of a disease⁵ or a health‐related condition which is diet related, taking into account the significance of the food in the total daily diet …”⁶ Under this requirement, the FDA has disqualified foods from bearing health claim if they contain more than the following amount per reference amount customarily consumed (RACC) or per label serving⁷:

 13 grams fat

 4 grams saturated fat

 60 mg cholesterol

 480 mg sodium

The above amounts apply to most foods, but there are different disqualifying levels for main dish and meal products.
