From: Vikas Narula [vnarula@vitalimages.com] Sent: Monday, March 26, 2001 2:14 PM To: 'fdadockets@oc.fda.gov' Subject: Docket 00N-1396 & Docket 00D-1598 Dear FDA, Please help us: 1) require mandatory pre-market comprehensive environmental review of Genetically Engineered (GE) Foods and Products. 2) require mandatory pre-market long-term health testing of GE products. 3) require mandatory labeling of GE products. Without mandatory labeling, neither consumers nor health professionals will know if an allergic or toxic reaction was the result of a genetically engineered food. Consumers would be deprived of the critical knowledge needed to hold food producers liable should any of these novel products be hazardous.
