Join us for an in-depth webinar examining the future of food ingredient regulation in the United States in light of recent public statements by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. directing FDA to explore rulemaking that could eliminate the current system allowing food companies to self-affirm substances as “Generally Recognized as Safe” (GRAS) without FDA review.
This session will explain:
- How ingredients are classified in the United States and the regulatory pathway for each
- How the GRAS system works today, including both FDA-reviewed and self-affirmed pathways
- What a revised GRAS framework might look like if the FDA moves to eliminate self-affirmation
- Potential implications for food and supplement manufacturers, ingredient suppliers, and regulatory professionals
We’ll explore likely regulatory scenarios and outline how companies can prepare for possible rulemaking or enforcement shifts.
Whether you work in regulatory affairs, product development, compliance, or public policy, this webinar will provide essential context and foresight into one of the most significant potential changes in U.S. food law in decades.
