Fukushima Fallout Awareness Network (Citizens for Health) - Citizen Petition

The commenter supports the petition to lower the FDA's admissible levels of cesium-134 and cesium-137 in food. They argue that current levels are unsafe due to bioaccumulation and the increasing risk of radioactive contamination from Japanese exports and nuclear expansion.

The commenter supports the proposed action to lower acceptable radiation levels in the US food supply, arguing that current limits are far too high and pose a significant health risk to the public. They advocate for a policy that aligns more closely with Japanese standards to protect against cellular mutagenosis.

The Fukushima Fallout Awareness Network (Citizens for Health) argues that the current permissible levels of radioactive cesium in food should be revised more rapidly to protect public health. They advocate for more stringent controls and a comprehensive reevaluation of guidelines based on the latest scientific evidence regarding long-term health risks.

The commenter supports the proposed action to reduce radiation limits in food, arguing that the FDA is currently prioritizing the nuclear industry over public health. They cite concerns regarding regulatory capture and provide a link to a statement by an expert on the health effects of ionizing radiation.
