We have recently registered with the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) to receive our FDA Approval status.
The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) is an agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services. It is one of the federal departments that are responsible for protecting and promoting public health through the supervision of food safety, tobacco products, dietary supplements, prescription and over the counter pharmaceutical drugs, cosmetics, and many other areas in which consumers interact with a product on a daily basis.
The FDA enforces laws passed by the United States of America that are directly related to food, drugs, and other public health issues.
The FDA is led by a commissioner of Food and Drugs, appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate. The Commissioner reports to the Secretary of Health and Human Services. The 21st and current Commissioner is Dr. Margaret A. Hamburg. She has served as Commissioner since February 2009.
The FDA has its headquarters at Silver Spring, Maryland and has 223 field offices and 13 laboratories located throughout the 50 states, the United States Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico. In 2008 the FDA started opening offices in foreign countries, including China, India, Costa Rica, Chile, Belgium and the United Kingdom.
Having the backing of the FDA, like we have said before is a great honor. |
