Question 12331 — dangerous products

Summary

Mr. Emmanuel Mandon alerts the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities to the presence in food, particularly in chocolate, of a metal toxic to health, cadmium. In June 2025, the Regional Unions of Health Professionals-Liberal Doctors (URPS) warned about human exposure to cadmium, present in the soil and which contaminates food. For its part, Public Health France (SFP) indicates that 50% of adults are exposed to doses promoting osteoporosis, kidney damage and for a quarter of them an extremely worrying incidence of pancreatic cancer. As for children, through their usual consumption of chocolate in all its forms (biscuits, cereals, hot milk), they are particularly exposed, especially the youngest. Also, he asks her if she shares the very negative implications of these recent scientific studies on the harmfulness of cadmium for public health and, if so, what steps it intends to take to draw conclusions from this observation.
