Support Legislative Efforts Today to Make a Difference for Tomorrow through
the FLMA and ADINA Act
The Food Labeling Modernization Act (FLMA) of 2023 was introduced on 4/26/23 in both the House and Senate. Please see the press release here. Pertinent to the gluten-free community, the FLMA would amend the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA) to require that food product packaging disclose ALL gluten-containing grains (wheat, barley, and rye) in the ingredient list and/or “Contains” statement on ingredient labels.
The Allergen Disclosure In Non-Food Articles (ADINA) Act was introduced on 6/21/23 in both the House and Senate. The ADINA Act would require drugs to label a major food allergen or a gluten-containing grain.
