あらすじ・解説
Imagine knowing exactly what 'healthy' really means on your food labels! This week, we get that clarity straight from the source as we sit down with Jim Jones, the Deputy Commissioner of Human Foods at the FDA. We explore the often-overlooked 'food' aspect of the FDA's role, discussing how the agency plans to make our food safer, the new 'healthy' labeling guidelines, and the implications for our eating habits and future health. Jones, a lifelong regulator, shares insights on food safety, nutrition labeling, and efforts to combat chronic disease through improved nutrition. We also touch on the challenges and strategies for ensuring food access in underserved communities and the upcoming voluntary sodium reduction initiative.
