The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently announced a new action plan that aims to reduce exposure to toxic elements in foods commonly eaten by babies and young children, to the lowest possible levels.
The Acting U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Janet Woodcock, M.D. and Susan Mayne, Ph.D., Director, FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, recently released a statement about toxicity in baby foods and food for young children.
In a congressional report released February 4, entitled "Baby Foods Are Tainted with Dangerous Levels of Arsenic, Lead, Cadmium, and Mercury," it was revealed that some baby food contains very dangerous levels of arsenic and other poisons.
