"Food and chemical companies are permitted to approve the use of new potentially harmful additives and other substances in snacks, drinks and more without the Food and Drug Administration's review and approval -- all thanks to a regulatory loophole known as the GRAS rule."

"GRAS, or 'generally recognized as safe,' is a food category created by Congress in 1958. The GRAS designation was intended to apply to ingredients widely recognized to be safe, such as salt, water, yeast and chicken breast."

"The GRAS rule, finalized in 1997, created a voluntary notification system that lets manufacturers bypass federal regulators' review. Companies can identify and use new GRAS ingredients but are not required to share this information with the FDA."

"Since 2000, food and chemical companies have used the GRAS loophole to approve 99 percent of new food chemicals, according to a 2022 EWG analysis. It leaves both the public and the FDA in the dark about the substances in our food."

"Experts estimate more than 1,000 GRAS substances have entered the food supply without FDA or public knowledge."

I never heard of this. Wonder if there is any connection with cancer rates in the population.

What is GRAS? - EWG

Advancements in #AI have created big gaps in what the #FDA regulates. It does nothing to review tools like chatbots, for example, and it has no #authority over systems that summarize #doctors’ notes and perform other critical administrative tasks.

Pretty good article here, especially the last part about thousands of chemicals used in our foods that were "approved" but not by the FDA. And about the FDA's policy of never repeating a review. Many chemicals that were approved by the FDA were approved 50 years ago. Despite new evidence of problems, they won't review anything they've previously reviewed.

California Senate Committee on Health approves first-in-the-nation food chemical bill.

The five chemicals to be banned have been linked to many health risks including cancer, nervous system damage and hyperactivity.

"The products are technically unregulated, have been blamed for one death, and have triggered over 104 adverse event reports to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)."

#hottake :3 so the events from prohibition, cause them to act, to do more prohibition, rather than repeal the restrictions that caused the chemical workarounds (echoes of methanol a bit?).... contrast to how many deaths and adverse reactions from the jabs... are people seeing the abusive hypocrisy and inconsistency in their abusive bullshit yet?
