LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - It's bound to go down the wrong way in Beijing: A U.S. health food company will label its products "China-Free" to ease concerns about contamination.
Food for Health International, based in Orem, Utah, makes whole food nutritional supplements for people and pets, and President Frank Davis said the company will begin trumpeting the fact none of its ingredients come from China.

Plans call for a "China-Free" sticker on products such as Food for Health's "9 a Day-Plus" capsules, "Active Adults" whole food shakes and "Healthy Dog" supplements. The company also will use "China-Free" in advertisements and promotions.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration requires seafood to be labeled showing its origin, but not meats and produce. While government officials, manufacturers and consumers are all discussing ways to better label products, no group yet appears to have come up with a "China-Free" promotion.
