How Regulated and Safe Are Our Food Additives in the US?
Manage episode 337877357 series 3914
Welcome to Real Health Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.
This week on Real Health Conversations, we take a look at the policies and regulations that govern the ingredients in our food (USA). The label “FDA Approved” is believed to be synonymous with tested and safe, but is that really the case?
Inspired by recent news headlines regarding a recent lawsuit against food company Mars, this episode looks deeper into the claims that Skittles candies were “unfit for human consumption” because of the presence of a “known toxin” called titanium dioxide.
