Answer:
FDA: Food and Drug Administration
Explanation:
This U.S. Department of Health and Human Services agency enforces the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. It ensures food sold in the U.S. is safe, pure, and nutritive; that pharmaceuticals and medical devices are safe and effective; that cosmetics are harmless; and that all such products are properly labeled and packaged. Additionally, the FDA ensures compliance with federal laws requiring warning labels on any household products that are toxic, corrosive, irritant, flammable, or that generate pressure from decomposition or heat.
The FDA has five primary responsibilities:
1. Advancing public health by accelerating product innovations.
2. Safeguarding public health by certifying that foods (except beef, poultry, and some eggs handled by the USDA) are safe, sanitary, properly labeled; also ensuring human and veterinary medicines, vaccines, biological products, and medical devices are safe and efficacious.
3. Regulating tobacco products.
4. Confirming cosmetics and dietary supplements are safe and truthfully labeled.
5. Protecting people from radiation hazards of electronic products.
