Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Takes Action to Eliminate Toxic Food Dyes
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., HHS Secretary of the USA, shared on X:
“For too long, some food producers have been feeding Americans petroleum-based chemicals without their knowledge or consent. These poisonous compounds offer no nutritional benefit and pose real, measurable dangers to our children’s health and development.
That era is coming to an end. We’re restoring gold-standard science, applying common sense, and beginning to earn back the public’s trust. And we’re doing it by working with industry to get these toxic dyes out of the foods our families eat every day.”
This post by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. highlights a major policy move by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Kennedy emphasized the agency’s commitment to removing petroleum-based chemical dyes from food products to protect children’s health and rebuild public trust. The initiative marks a significant shift towards stricter food safety standards, underscoring a renewed focus on scientific rigor and industry collaboration under his leadership.
