15In this regard, it must be concluded that the respective aims of the Regulation and of the Directive are different and that the Directive does not exclude the application of the Regulation to foodstuffs intended for particular nutritional uses. Whereas the Regulation is designed to protect designations used for milk and milk products, having regard to their natural composition, in the interests of producers and consumers, the purpose of the Directive is to lay down precise rules for the labelling and presentation of the products which it covers in order to ensure that their nature and composition are appropriate for the particular nutritional purpose for which they are intended.
