There are many other chemicals in this hairspray that have harmful concerns, but one of the more troubling ingredients included is, artificial fragrance. Synthetic fragrance contains many chemicals, some which may cause brain damage or are neurotoxins and are filled with allergens. Due to "trade secret" status of companies’ fragrances, the FDA does not

For producers of food animals in the United States this year is not going to be the same as any other year in the past. Why, you may ask? The Food and Drug Administration created stricter guidelines to the Veterinary Feed Directive. For example, any beef producer has used or heard of MGA in their lifetime. Many producers just order MGA, mix it with the feed and feed it. MGA is used to synchronize heifers or to prevent heifers from coming into heat in the feedlot so they don’t waste energy while in heat. Producers are now going to have to take extra steps to get the antibiotics they need for their heard. This is going to affect almost all producers of food animals, large and small. The FDA is going to have to teach and inform producers about how what and why this is put into effect. FDA and researchers are going to have to explain to and keep producers up to date with information like the following.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is an agency within the US Department of Health and Health Service, which is apart of the federal executive branch. In June 1906 President Theodore Roosevelt signed into law the Food and Drug Act, known as “The Wiley Act”after its chief advocate. It was not known by its present name until 1930.

There are two modern Food and Drug Administration (FDA) actions that are important to review and their impact today; the Prescription Drug User Fee Act passed in 1992, and the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act passed in 1997. Under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act, the FDA was authorized to “collect fees from pharmaceutical companies to review their drug applications” (Shi, 2016). This fee collection process shortens the time for new drug approvals and allows the FDA to make the drugs available for use much sooner. Congress went a step further by with the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act that provides for

Before buying any beauty products, you should be aware of any harmful chemicals in them

The Food and Drug Administration has proposed and created several regulations throughout the years. One of them is the regulation to establish a list of qualifying pathogens that may have the potential to propose or cause a great threat. According to the FDA, this proposed rule would implement a provision of the Generating Antibiotic Incentives Now of the FDA. This regulation would assist in reassuring the development of new antibacterial and antifungal drugs. Before the development of new drugs, the FDA must take into consideration the effect on public health due to drug- resistant organisms in humans. The purpose of this paper will be to discuss and highlight what this regulation truly means and the issues surrounding it.

The FDA was created to oversee the quality of our food and medications to make sure they are effective and will not harm us.

Animal testing should not be used in cosmetic industries as a source of experimentation because it is unethical and inefficient. It is a cruel way of trying to find results that are not even always trustworthy. Everyone has a different reaction to different chemicals so why even bother animals for testing? Also different species can respond differently when exposed to the same chemical so animal testing can be inefficient. The results from animal tests can be quite variable and difficult to interpret therefore it may not be applicable to human beings. Thus, consumer safety still cannot be guaranteed even after these gruesome tests which are totally unethical. It is also unethical to torture and end the lives of these animals each year for our own luxury. Everyday cosmetic industries are using defenseless animals very cruelly just to carry out some most often useless tests. Instead they should use other alternatives which has been proved to yield better and accurate results than tests involving animals.

A lot of people buy cosmetic products being ignorant to the fact that, that one product has killed a lot of animals. How would you like being sprayed with poisonous liquids, taking poisonous eye drops?, or being fed toxic substances? Cosmetic factories have been doing these inhumane things and more to innocent animals for years.

Formaldehyde is a known to be a human carcinogen. (Ntp.nies.nih.gov..,2016). This agent is used as a preservative and is a cancer causing agent. Product labels do not state if formaldehyde is present, even though the manufacturers use this to prevent mold and bacteria from growing and spoiling the products. The FDA does not restrict the amount of formaldehyde that can be present in cosmetics sold in the U.S. (Facts. G...Concern, C.. & Preservatives. F., 2016). According to the Food and Drug Administrations (FDA), 1 in 5 cosmetic products contain formaldehyde. A caution proclamation on products may be listed when some unsafe ingredients may be existent. For example, ingredients may be safe in products such as lotions when washed off your skin, but not safe when left on the skin for hours. Another example is ingredients that are safe for use on the hair or nails may be unsafe when used on skin or near the

Whom does this decision affect? Although substituting PFY in the formula increased sales revenue, Funny Face and Novelty Now failed to consider that because of lack of test and FDA approval of this product, consumers health could and in fact resulted to be at risk of side effects. Purpose- Both companies failed to take efficiency into consideration. Although substituting the ingredient, seemed like a profitable market idea, would the aftershave be as efficient as it was originally formulated? How- As owners of cosmetic companies, corporate officials need to take into consideration how public disclosure would affect the business if customers knew about the substitution of an ingredient for something inferior and not FDA approved. By developing reasoning towards the WPH framework we can conclude that although it seemed like a “smart” market/profit move to substitute PYR, in ethical terms, it meant a violation of consumer trust and safety. Moreover, the damage to the public speaking career that the aftershave caused to Mr. Margolin, could never be ethically

Having laws banning the use of all dangerous chemicals in beauty products will be a step further into dodging many health dangers. On average, most women use approximately 12 beauty products with 168 different ingredients daily, some of which may be associated

The cosmetology industry has been infamously known for their lack of regulations on companies that produce beauty products. The companies do not operate through the FDA, so they are able to exclude important information from labels. In the past, manufacturers could omit ingredients from labels, claiming the right to protect trade secrets (Nguyen 2). More than 9,000 chemicals are found in cosmetic products; however, only half of them can be found on the labels (Pak 2). Because of the label loopholes, the chemicals in the products have also become unregulated. According to Nguyen at Organic Consumers Association, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not saftey test ingredients used in cosmetic or personal care products before they are sold to the public (2). This leads to toxic chemicals being circulated in the public market. Additionally, if there is not a way to

There are over 7,000 chemicals approved safe for use in cosmetics. This is enough chemicals to formulate thousands of new products. Companies that choose to test on animal subjects do so to innovate new chemicals for their products. Many times, these chemicals are cheaper and create a greater profit margin for their company. New chemicals are harsh,

Consumers are concerned about product safety and the use of animal testing by cosmetic companies.
