Health Risk Disclosure Program

Working within the system, The Initiative will spearhead an effort to bring about legislation requiring health warnings and full disclosure of scientifically proven harmful effects of certain ingredients used in food preparation. It will work to re-instate the ‘Imitation Food Bill’ of 1938 overturned by Congress in 1977 leading to what is today our overly processed food industry inundated by a deluge of ‘fake’ foods. Additionally, The Initiative will work to bring about similar legislation requiring chain restaurants to make available to the public the caloric value and ingredients of the products they serve.
