Although Congress began investigating drug purity in the 1840s, it was during the Progressive Era that it approved the first federal regulations protecting consumers’ health and safety in 1906. When Upton Sinclair’s 1906 novel The Jungle revealed food adulteration and unsanitary practices in meat production, public outrage prompted Congress to establish federal responsibility for public health and welfare. The Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 prohibited the sale of misbranded or adulterated food and drugs in interstate commerce and laid a foundation for the nation’s first consumer protection agency, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Research papers as far back as the 1970s confirmed that the chemical styrene is a toxin to the human body.
The FDA either did not view these research papers, or they did not take him seriously which now put us in several epidemics because of chemicals that they grandfathered in as usable flavorings for food along with food containers that leach these chemicals into our food with no research.
On 7/23/2018 the American Academy of Pediatrics put out a report that some calming food additives may pose health risks to children. In this report styrene was named.
Less than three months later, on 10/5/2018 the FDA removed styrene and six other synthetic flavoring substances from the food additives list. Some people think that it's really good however it leaves a huge question.
In 2013 the FDA Determines Polystyrene Is Safe for Use in Food Contact because the safety limit set by FDA (the FDA’s acceptable daily intake value of styrene is calculated to be 90,000 micrograms per person per day). According to the FDA this is more than 10,000 times below the safety limit set by FDA.
In 2018 when the FDA removes styrene as a synthetic food additive why wasn't polystyrene food containers eliminated as a food container because the chemical styrene has been eliminated as a food additive?
It's not like the FDA calculates styrene consumption. This means that the FDA does not go out and collect air samples from the public or from factories that work with the chemical styrene daily. This research would be necessary to know whether an individual is being overdosed by the chemical styrene which causes many health concerns.
The FDA also doesn’t understand that children are not small adults! Research papers going back decades state this if you look at the 2013 document where the FDA allows polystyrene food containers, they almost bragged that styrene is put into baked goods frozen dairy products candy gelatins pudding and other food in small quantities. This is aimed at our children are children eat most of these products not adults.
Final note the FDA is now part of the corporate welfare system protecting the bottom line of corporations they are not there to protect the health and safety of the people anymore!
