This policy would mandate standardized gluten-free labeling, extend allergen disclosure requirements to restaurants and medications, and provide financial support for individuals with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. It would establish:
- Stricter Labeling Standards for gluten-free foods, medications, and supplements to ensure transparency and safety.
- Mandatory Allergen Training and Disclosure in food service and healthcare settings to prevent cross-contamination.
- Expanded Access to Gluten-Free Options in schools and healthcare facilities.
- Financial Assistance for individuals facing the higher costs of gluten-free foods through tax deductions or credits.
- Greater Research Funding for celiac disease and gluten-related disorders to advance understanding and treatment.
This act would significantly enhance the safety, affordability, and accessibility of gluten-free options, protecting millions affected by celiac disease and gluten sensitivity
