FILE - This file photo provided by the Food and Drug Administration shows a side-by-side comparison of the old, left, and new food Nutrition Facts labels. The revamped Nutrition Facts panel that the FDA announced on Tuesday, June 13, 2017, was being delayed, could also change what companies get to count as fiber. The FDA hasn’t yet cleared 26 ingredients that the industry can currently count as fiber to continue being counted as fiber on the new panel. The unsettled details are partly why the industry has called for delaying the deadline to use the new panel. Others say extending the deadline will only lead to confusion.

This photo provided by the Food and Drug Administration shows a side-by-side comparison of the old, left, and new food nutrition facts labels. The FDA says it intends to delay a rule that would require food companies to label their products with a revised nutrition facts panel. The agency had previously set a deadline of July 26, 2018, for the new panel, which was intended to make it easier for people to understand how much they’re eating. After hearing feedback from industry and others, the FDA said it would delay the compliance date. (Food and Drug Administration via AP)

This is a screen shot of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) webpage. Pregnant and worried about your medication? The FDA is revamping confusing labels on prescription drugs to make it easier to understand which are safe to use. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding often agonize over whether a drug needed for their own health might hurt their baby, or even if the woman's changing body requires a higher or lower dose.

FILE - In this April 11, 2012, file photo, poults raised without the use of antibiotics are seen at David Martin's turkey farm, in Lebanon, Pa. Twenty-five pharmaceutical companies are voluntarily phasing out the use of antibiotics for growth promotion in animals processed for meat, the Food and Drug Administration said Wednesday, March 26, 2014. Citing a potential threat to public health, the agency in December 2013 asked 26 companies to voluntarily stop labeling drugs important for treating human infection as acceptable for use in animal production. The FDA did not name the one company that has not agreed to withdraw or revise its drugs. (AP Photo/Matt Rourke, File)
