There is no way to establish a food as "safe".

Health outcomes are noisy, especially if taken over a long time. Peer reviewed studies are often flawed in various ways and most scientific studies lack the statistical power to be inconclusive.

The fear based approach to human diets can not work. We have to accept risks in our lives if we want to eat at all.
