Does anyone believe the FDA is protecting America's health?

Question

The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) is controlled by the pharmaceutical drug cartels and big corporations. In another insane edict, the FDA has ordered that all almonds must be irradiated (nuked), which destroys all of the nutrients and molecular structure, and creates health problems when the almonds enter your digestive system and your body cannot properly metabolize them. I believe that the FDA is the greatest threat to America's health.

Answer 1

Correction Please, FDA(Fools,Dolts & A**holes).
Now what was that you saying my friend ? :o)
Ah, FDA protecting America's Health ?
I really don't think so.

Take Care and God Bless you.

Answer 2

So, I'm confused. What do Drug companies have to do with almonds? I think the Irradiation has something to do with a salmonella outbreak 2004 from raw almonds. If you think the FDA is run by drug companies, think again, look at the politicians who owe the drug companies and put laws in place so the FDA can't do their job, then blame them when something goes wrong. And, if you want to look at dietary supplements, they are just drugs with a really good lobbyist who got them out of being regulated as drugs. These are still regulated as foods. I believe that politicains inbed with drug companies are the greatest threat to America's health.

Answer 3

The FDA is now underfunded,
understaffed and filled with
employees that are fed the
party line that all Corporations
should be able to police them-
selves. So, the FDA believes
mostly that the Pharma giants
can and should police them-selves. There are no
longer any unbiased clinical
trials on new meds. There is no longer any unbiased over-
sight of the FDA.
And further....the CDC are
no longer able to warn the
American public of any
health risk that may cause
a nationwide panic. So let's
all just live in our ignorance
and be happy!

Answer 4

I agree.
Not just with almonds, but they want to regulate (and therefore eliminate) all health supplements (like vitamins, minerals, and herbs) is just one more nail in the coffin of healthy citizens. I am 51, haven't had to see a doctor in over 10 years, and I believe its due to vitamin/mineral supplements daily, herbs when I need them, and alternative health solutions. Thank God I live in Canada, where I'm safe from the FDA's disease-promoting laws (at least for now).

Answer 5

Of course. You must of read John Trudeau book 'What the drug companies really don't want you to know' It makes perfect since. If the 'perfect drug' existed then the FDA and drug companies would be out of a job.

I use only natural remedies and in the process of growing my own foods.

Answer 6

I agree, we need a national enforceable by law, citizens council made up of elected people from all States to regulate and over see our elected leaders and these FDA people especially.we can no longer trust anyone in our government. and we need to have someone oversee their illegal activities, NOW.they wanted to out law vitamins a while back .unless you had a prescription.from a doctor.there all bought and paid for .the more sick people the more drugs they can sell. they will do what they will unless we STOP THEM.the sheeple people of this country make me SICK,the advertisement of drugs on TV should be stopped immediately.

Answer 7

I agree, FDA is more concerned with corp profits than citizens' health. I hadn't heard about the almonds...
