Federal Food

Meaning

The term “Federal Food” is not a specific scientific or clinical term in the domain of endocrinology or human physiology, but rather a reference to food and dietary supplements regulated by federal government agencies, such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States. In the context of hormonal health, this refers to the regulatory framework that governs the safety, labeling, and marketing claims of foods, supplements, and ingredients that may influence the endocrine system. Clinicians must navigate these regulations when advising patients on nutritional interventions and supplement protocols aimed at hormonal balance.
