Sodium, calcium, magnesium and potassium content labeling: NDMA asks for a 60-day extension of the comment period for the final rule on sodium content labeling and the proposed rule on calcium, magnesium and potassium content labeling "because of the potentially far-reaching nature of these proposed and final rules" in a June 18 letter.
