Sažetak
The Slovenian Heart Foundation confers the trademark "Protects health" which is a label in the shape of a heart under which the inscription "Protects health" and favourable properties of the product may be found (description of the product). The trademark is conferred to particular alimentary products -protecting foods and proper menus in restaurants - protecting menus. Among the most important risk factors for the development of civilization diseases, where the heart disease and blood pressure have the leading role, is undoubtedly unhealthy nutrition. It is possible to teach people how to select healthy food and to stimulate food processing industry to produce more healthy food - protecting foods. The trademark of a protecting food may be a good guide in this case. There are many dairy products among protecting foods. These are milk and dairy products made of skimmed milk. Like all other foods they have to meet the requirements for evaluation of foods following the directives of the World Health Organization. These requirements include the following parameters: level of fats, saturated fatty acids, cholesterol, salts, sugar, fibres, energy value. Dairy products safe for human consumption are evaluated according to low fats, saturated fats and cholesterol and low energy value. The adequacy of foods is evaluated by an independent Commision for conferring the right to use the trademark "Protects health".
