What if the system that allowed thousands of chemicals into our food with minimal oversight is finally getting a major overhaul?


For years, a loophole meant for simple ingredients like salt became a highway for countless additives. I sat down with the FDA's Deputy Commissioner for Food to get the inside story on their shift from reactive to proactive.

We dive into how they're closing the 'generally recognized as safe' (GRAS) loophole, establishing a new framework to re-evaluate substances already in our food, and why ingredients like food dyes—offering no nutritional value—are facing a reckoning. Discover the critical changes aiming for a more transparent and potentially safer food supply for all of us.

Dr. Paul Saladino received his medical degree from the University of Arizona Medical School. His use of “doctor” or “Dr.” in relation to himself solely refers to that degree. Dr. Saladino is a licensed physician in California, but he no longer practices in any state and does not see patients so he can focus on educating people as a full time activity. This video is for general informational purposes only. It should not be used to self-diagnose and it is not a substitute for a medical exam, cure, treatment, diagnosis, and prescription or recommendation. It does not create a doctor-patient relationship between Dr. Saladino and you. You should not make any change in your health regimen or diet before first consulting a physician and obtaining a medical exam, diagnosis, and recommendation. Always seek the advice of a physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.
