FDA proposes mandatory notification for new food ingredients

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has proposed a new rule to require manufacturers to notify the agency before marketing new food ingredients that they have self-determined to be safe. This change aims to address the significant information gap regarding substances entering the food supply, as currently, many ingredients are added under the "Generally Recognized As Safe" (GRAS) exemption without prior FDA review. The proposal would convert the existing voluntary notification program into a mandatory one, though it does not establish a premarket approval process. AI
