The Trump administration is proposing new FDA rules requiring food companies to notify regulators and provide safety information before introducing new ingredients, while delaying a long-promised federal definition of ultraprocessed foods. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called the moves “historic actions,” saying they would change how the federal government oversees food ingredients. Officials gave no timeline for releasing the ultraprocessed-food definition, which remains under review by other agencies.
