The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has issued a Request for Information regarding labeling and preventing cross-contact of gluten in packaged food.
FDA said it is taking this action as a first step to improve transparency in disclosures of ingredients that impact certain health conditions, such as gluten for those with celiac disease, and other established food allergens.
"Today, we advance the MAHA Strategy's directive by demanding radical transparency in packaged food ingredients that affect health conditions and diet-related allergies," Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. said. "Americans deserve clear, reliable information about what's in their food and how it's made. Public input calling for honest labeling will protect consumers, prevent harm, and Make America Healthy Again."
