Food Technology Training
WHY IS FOOD TECHNOLOGY TRAINING
IMPORTANT?
Food technology training is important because food scientists must
comply with industry and government specifications and regulations.
Food technology scientists - depending upon their area of specialization -
must also stay up-to-date on the latest advances in R&D, processing
techniques, regulatory aspects, labeling, packaging, and formulations.

WHAT IS THE FDA DEFINITION OF DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS?
The FDA definition of dietary supplements is as follows:
The FDA traditionally considered dietary
supplements to be composed only of essential nutrients, such as vitamins,
minerals, and proteins. The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 added
"herbs, or similar nutritional substances," to the term "dietary supplement."
With the passage of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA),
Congress expanded the meaning of the term "dietary supplements" beyond
essential nutrients to include such substances as ginseng, garlic, fish oils,
psyllium, enzymes, glandulars, and mixtures of these.
The provisions of DSHEA established the FDA
definition of dietary supplements and dietary ingredients; provided for use of
claims and nutritional support statements; outlined guidelines for literature
displayed where supplements are sold; established a new framework for assuring
safety requiring ingredient and nutrition labeling; and granted FDA the
authority to establish good manufacturing practices.
CfPA offers several regulatory courses focused on
the food technology/food safety industry such as:
