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.
StandUpPouches.net, a leading supplier of flexible retail packaging, released a new industry report that examines consumer preference toward baby food packaging.
Public health advocates recently used a little-known legal tool today to challenge a recent FDA move allowing a toxic chemical in food packaging. The groups filed an objection to FDA’s decision to continue to allow perchlorate in dry food packaging.
