FSMA or also known as Food Safety Modernization Act which is approved and signed by President Barrack Obama last January 7, 2017 to ensure that the food to be distributed is safe to eat first. This adds to the burden of FDA or Food and Drug Administration since a new enforcement and inspection authorities has to be made but it helps them in reducing the risk of spreading the disease at the prevention stage rather than relying on the problem after they occur. According to the Act, FDA ensures the public health by strengthening the food safety and quality system.
