Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

The Food and Drug Administration's role in the food supply is to approve new foods (including additives, preservatives, and genetically modified) after tests have shown they are safe, recall foods that have been contaminated and are harmful, etc.

The origins of the FDA can be traced back to 1848 when Lewis Caleb Beck was appointed to carry out analysis of agricultural products. That function that the Department of Agriculture inherited when it was created in 1862. It wasn't until 1930 that the FDA was known by its current name, Federal Drug Administration. Their modern day functions began with the passage of the 1906 Pure Food and Drugs Act. The driving force behind the law was Harvey Washington Wiley, Chief Chemist of the Bureau of Chemistry in the Department of Agriculture, who headed its enforcement in the early years, providing basic elements of protection that consumers had never known before that time.

cGMP refers to "Current Good Manufacturing Practices". This practice is controlled by the Food and Drug Administration. They ensure that medications are safe for the public consumer.

Herbalife has been accused of causing health problems in some people and also for not being as effective as it claims.

Xanax (alprazolam) was approved by the FDA in October 1981 for the treatment of anxiety disorders and panic disorder.

If you're talking about fda.com, then there are absolutely NO strengths about it. Too much writing, too many pictures and advertisement, bad fonts, small writing, long lists, old fashioned layout, old fashioned and bad-looking title colours and sizes, and basically they tried to cram too much info into a small space.

"FDA Accepted" refers to the 510K process for Medical Devices. Medical devices are generally not "approved" but rather accepted by the FDA. The manufacturer/510K applicant must prove that their device is similar to another device on the market (the "predicate" device) and that it will not cause harm to the patient. The level of proof that must be provided is based upon the classification of the medical device (class 1 = a device that poses little risk to a person such as a toothbrush, an exam light, a dentist's pick, class 3 = anything implanted into the body and/or something that sustains life/prevents loss of life such as an artificial joint or an automated defibrillator).

If there is no "predicate device" (it's a brand new device/technology), then the FDA does "approve" the device and it goes through a stricter review process.

The FDA is currently undergoing a careful review of it's 510K approval process because of all the defective/non-effective devices that the FDA has accepted onto the marketplace.

Alternatively, all drugs (aka prescription pharmaceuticals) go through the "New Drug Application" (NDA) Process and must be formally approved by the FDA to ensure safety, efficacy, and purity of the product. Generic drug applications (ANDAs) must prove that they are biologically/chemically identical to the drug that they are copying.

hi dear,

fda inspector earns 5-6 lacs rs monthly

Frozen cheese pizzas and frozen vegetable pizzas are produced under FDA inspection, although I don't think they are specifically approved by FDA. However, a frozen pizza with meat on it is produced under inspection by FSIS and carries no implied FDA oversight.

FDA requires product label so that they will know/ determine whether that product is safe/ unsafe. what the ingredients they used to produce these kind of product..

You're an idiot.

Here are some organic weight loss supplements: http://www.herbalremedies.com/dietsupweigl.html. Remember that these are probably not FDA approved and just because it is organic doesn't mean that it will be effective. Be careful when using weight loss supplements.

I do believe that the Diet pill is not fda approved because the only diet pill on todays market that is approved is alli. I have tried alli and it did not seem to work, but I only took the pill for one cycle so maybe it takes longer. How ever I am pretty sure the 7 day detox is not approved because the company would use it as a key selling point. Good Luck.

Yes it is , and smallpox is aredicated.

no however michelle phan does not own iqqu anymore i am not sure why but she never lied to the FDA

You may see all kinds of products advertised on TV and in print; many make amazing claims, like they say they cure certain diseases or help you lose weight easily, or increase your memory, or whatever. By law, when a product has not been tested by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and has no scientific basis for the claim it is making, the FDA mandates that the ad must conclude with a disclaimer, explaining that this product has never been tested and it may not really prevent or cure any diseases. So, the statement "this product has not been evaluated, etc" means the FDA cannot prove the claims this product is making, because it has never been submitted for scientific testing. The FDA is basically trying to warn you to be skeptical of these product claims: the item may not be dangerous, but it may be a giant waste of your money.

Food hygiene proficiency is regulated by the food hygiene regulation (852/2004/EU), and the Food Act (23/2006, amendment 1137/2008). Operators in the food business are required to ensure at their own expense that employees handling food are given training and instructions relevant to their work tasks. Employees must have a hygiene passport if they in their work handle unpackaged easily perishable foods. Such foods are, for example, milk, meat and fish. Cafeterias, restaurants, institutional kitchens, various kiosks, fast-food restaurants, food stores, for example, and also many factories manufacturing foods are work places were the employees are required to have a hygiene passport. It is required that one within three months of commencing work must acquire a hygiene passport. These three months retroactively are calculated also to include such prior work in the food business where hygiene passport is required.

The federal government's recommendations for foodservice sanitation regulations

Slim Quick, a dietary supplement comprised of vitamins, minerals, and herbs, is not approved by the FDA.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is the governing agency to the FDA.

SANDwiches are not regulated by the FDA.

FDA is responsible for protecting the public health by assuring that foods (except for meat from livestock, poultry and some egg products which are regulated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture) are safe, wholesome, sanitary and properly labeled; ensuring that human and veterinary drugs, and vaccines and other biological products and medical devices intended for human use are safe and effective. The department maintains a permanent inspector at all major meat, vegetable and fish markets or storage area. It is vital that consumers have this protection. They can eat meals without worrying about safety.

The Alli diet pill was initially launched with great success and only mild side effects were reported. However the phrase "alli oops" was soon given to the often unexpected (and highly embarrassing) emptying of the bowels at any given moment.

More serious however was the news that the FDA was launching an investigation into Alli and its main ingredient - Orlistat.

Orlistat features in the stronger and prescription only fat binder - Xenical. It has been reported that as many as 1000 cases of liver damage may be linked to the use of orlistat and 24 deaths have been attributed to Xenical over recent years.

The FDA are yet to make a decision on the future of Alli.

There are alternatives to Alli which feature only natural ingredients and cut a similar percentage of fat from your diet, they are also side effect free. Read the "Alli diet pill review" link, which can be found below for more information.
