Regulatory Risk, Ingredient Safety, and GRAS: What Companies Need to Act on Now

Regulatory Risk, Ingredient Safety, and GRAS: What Companies Need to Act on Now

U.S. food regulations are changing rapidly, with GRAS policy changes imminent. With regulatory volatility and state-level actions creating complexity and uncertainty, now is the time to prepare for changes coming soon. Policy experts Kevin Kenny, JD, LLM, and Joy Dubost, PhD, RD, provide their unique insights into what food companies need to know now to get ahead of federal and state regulatory shifts.

Objectives:

• Determine if external support is needed to prioritize high-risk product review and expert-validated safety dossiers
• Understand why a “wait-and-see” mindset on GRAS will increase business risk
• Describe defensible regulatory decision-making on previously self-affirmed GRAS determinations
• Identify what should be documented, even when decisions remain provisional
• Recognize patterns in food policy for Dietary Guidelines, UPFs, state legislative actions and expected GRAS reform
