What if the system that allowed thousands of chemicals into our food with minimal oversight is finally getting a major overhaul?


For years, a loophole meant for simple ingredients like salt became a highway for countless additives. I sat down with the FDA's Deputy Commissioner for Food to get the inside story on their shift from reactive to proactive.

We dive into how they're closing the 'generally recognized as safe' (GRAS) loophole, establishing a new framework to re-evaluate substances already in our food, and why ingredients like food dyes—offering no nutritional value—are facing a reckoning. Discover the critical changes aiming for a more transparent and potentially safer food supply for all of us.
