Non-sugar sweeteners in food and beverages before the implementation of front-of-package nutrition labeling in Brazil

Continuous monitoring of NSS prevalence, especially following the implementation of FoPNL, is essential for ensuring compliance with regulations and promoting informed consumer choices in Brazil.
