Tell the FDA: We need the Human Foods Program!

The foods we eat shouldn't put our health at risk. That's why we applaud the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for taking a big step towards better protecting the food we eat. The new Human Foods Program promises to assess the safety of chemicals in food using the most current and available science.

That must include looking at "real-world" health risks that arise from the multiple chemicals present in our food. Evaluating the safety of chemicals one-by-one often underestimates the true risks we face. We also believe this process should be transparent, independent and inclusive, with multiple opportunities for public involvement.

Join us in urging the FDA to establish this critical update to how our food is deemed safe.
