F. D. A. (U.S. Food and Drug Administration)

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is a government agency responsible for protecting public health by overseeing the safety and effectiveness of food, medications, medical devices, vaccines, and other health-related products. It ensures that these products meet strict standards before they reach consumers, monitors their safety once on the market, and enforces laws related to health and safety. The FDA also promotes public awareness about health issues and provides guidance to manufacturers to maintain high quality and safety standards across a wide range of products vital to everyday life.
