Citizen Petition from David A. Kessler

A private citizen who suffered from auto-immune diseases and recovered by avoiding ultra-processed foods is requesting action to ensure a healthier food supply. They argue that the current food supply contains harmful core ingredients that cause immediate symptoms for people with health sensitivities.

David A. Kessler, an individual, argues that processed foods and their associated chemicals have negatively impacted his personal health, specifically contributing to insulin resistance and polycystic ovary disease. He requests that the government take action to improve national health by limiting the use of dangerous chemicals in the food supply.

David A. Kessler supports the citizen petition to regulate the FDA. He argues that the agency needs to do more to remove "bad additives" from food and provide more transparency regarding drug ingredients and sourcing.

Terry Bevilaqua supports the petition by arguing that the current food system contains "fake food" products like GMOs and emulsifiers that contribute to physical and mental illness. The commenter advocates for a shift toward cleaner, more natural food standards similar to those found in the Netherlands to improve public health.
