Dietary Supplements: A Regulatory Guide
Dietary supplements are regulated by the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) very differently in important respects from "conventional
foods." Manufacturers of dietary supplements and the dietary ingredients
that they contain must comply with far more specific current good manufacturing
practice (CGMP) requirements, distinct labeling requirements, separate
adverse event reporting requirements, and several requirements not applicable
to conventional foods (e.g., new dietary ingredient (NDI) notification).
Dietary supplements and dietary ingredients also are regulated under
a safety standard that is different from the food additive/GRAS framework,
and therefore may contain ingredients not permitted in conventional
foods.
Any company in the business of manufacturing, distributing,
or otherwise selling dietary supplements or dietary ingredients must
be familiar with FDA's regulatory regime. In some cases, a particular
product might be marketed as a dietary supplement or as a conventional
food, and businesses need to know the advantages and disadvantages of
each approach.

OSHA Inspection Manual 3rd Edition
Periodically, food industry establishments are subject
to inspection by the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration
or its state counterparts causing internal confusion about what to expect
and what to do! The results of an OSHA inspection can lead to civil
fines, adverse publicity, abatement proceedings, and, in some cases,
criminal proceedings. It is extremely important, therefore, to be familiar
with OSHA's authority and its inspection procedures, and to deal effectively
with OSHA compliance officers.

Food Products Recall Manual
Food recalls occur virtually everyday. Food products are recalled for
a variety of reasons, ranging from the mundane to the serious. A manufacturer
may choose, for business reasons, to retrieve product that is not selling
well, does not meet quality specifications, has been the subject of
consumer complaints or has minor labeling problems. At the other extreme,
a manufacturer may be compelled to recall a food product that has been
implicated in an outbreak of foodborne illness, contains undeclared
allergens or contains metal fragments. Recalls are not pleasant experiences.
Given the public's growing concern about food safety, a recall can quickly
escalate into a local, national or even international news story. But,
it need not be a cause for panic. Following responsible and sensible
procedures, as outlined in this updated guide, can help contain the
fallout.

Guide to Regulation of Food Ingredients and Food Packaging
Materials
Do your product formulations and packaging comply with federal law?
In the U.S., the responsibility for assuring the safety of the food
supply and particularly the safety of materials added to processed foods
or used to package food is shared by FDA and USDA. All ingredients added
to processed foods must either comply with these regulations or qualify
for a legal exemption. Foods that contain ingredients that are not either
compliant or exempt and foods packages using noncompliant materials
are adulterated under federal law. The sale or distribution of adulterated
food is a violation of federal law and may subject the processor to
federal enforcement actions. This guide for the food processing industry
offers a thorough understanding of FDA and USDA regulation of food ingredients
and food contact materials. It will help food processors to determine
if they are in compliance with federal requirements and how to obtain
"approvals" for new ingredients.
