FDA Explores How To Reduce Sodium Levels In The Food Supply
A new report from the Institute of Medicine (IOM) concludes that national action is imperative to reduce the sodium content of foods if we are to make significant progress toward reducing the risk of hypertension and major cardiovascular events for Americans.
The FDA will more thoroughly review the recommendations of the IOM report and build plans for how the FDA can continue to work with other federal agencies, public health and consumer groups, and the food industry to support the reduction of sodium levels in the food supply. The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) will be establishing an interagency working group on sodium at the Department that will review options and next steps.
I'm pleased to see these efforts. In our household, we don't add salt, and do our best to avoid processed foods, and foods containing way too much sodium salt.

FDA Warning - Lipodissolve Products
Janet Woodcock, M.D., Director of FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) says:
"We are concerned that these companies are misleading consumers. It is important for anyone who is considering this voluntary procedure to understand that the products used to perform lipodissolve procedures are not approved by FDA for fat removal."The FDA website provides more information on the topic, FDA Warns About Lipodissolve Product Claims, with a downloadable pdf.
I'm not a big fan of liposuction, let alone this approach using lipo-dissolving chemicals.
