The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently released its Total Diet Study Report for Fiscal Years 2018–2020.

In a new update, the U.S. House of Representatives Oversight Committee says that testing practices for toxic heavy metals in baby foods are flawed.

As Chairman of the House Oversight Subcommittee on Economic and Consumer Policy, Congressman Krishnamoorthi initiated an investigation into toxic metals in baby food to find alarming levels from a variety of companies. In response, the Congressman has introduced the Baby Food Safety Act. In addition, the FDA responded to the Oversight investigation by introducing their “Closer to Zero” campaign, but the campaign does not go far enough nor fast enough.
