FDA Releases Plan for Reducing Infant Exposure to Heavy Metals

Congressional report on toxic elements in baby foods. “Although the FDA’s testing shows that children are not at an immediate health risk from exposure to toxic elements at the levels found in foods, we are starting the plan’s work immediately, with both short- and long-term goals for achieving continued improvements in reducing levels of toxic elements in these foods over time,” the agency

SACRAMENTO, Calif., April 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ THC remediation is the process of removing the psychoactive Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) from hemp-derived extracts or products. To be federally compliant, CBD products must contain no more than 0.3% THC. For many consumers, however, the presence of any THC is unacceptable and producers in this category must achieve non-detectable, or ND levels of THC. To complicate matters, the allowable level of THC in the hemp plant at harvest can be as high as 1.0% and experts project that 40% or more of hemp harvested for CBD production will exceed the 0.3% limit, making the need for THC remediation clear.

Most people spend over eight hours a day with their head on their pillow â hopefully asleep! Since we spend so much of our time in bed, organic bedding products from sheets to mattresses are exploding in popularity. Organic labeling is regulated by the United States Department of Agriculture under the National Organic Program. Therefore, the actual term âcertified organicâ is strictly regulated and cannot be used for just any product.
Organic regulations refer to how to the fibers are grown without the use of synthetic pesticides, while using less water and producing less waste than traditional growing methods. Certified organic only regulates the growing of the fiber and not the production or manufacturing of the product. Choosing organic textiles for your home is a great way to use more sustainable material

A new U.S. antidumping (“AD”) and countervailing (“CVD”) duty petition was filed on March 31 by the Organic Soybean Processors of America; American Natural Processors, LLC; Lester Feed & Grain Co.; Organic Production Services, LLC; Professional Proteins, Ltd.; Sheppard Grain Enterprises, LLC, Simmons Grain Company; Super Soy, LLC; and Tri-State Crush, LLC against imports of organic soybean meal (“OSBM”) from India.
OSBM mainly serves as an animal feed ingredient for organic poultry (approximately 75% of U.S. OSBM demand) and dairy (approximately 25% of U.S. OSBM demand) with a nominal amount used for other organic livestock (e.g., pork) farming operations. For a full description of the scope of the petition, please see the Scope section below.
