They need to start doing better at regulating the drugs and foods already

out there before trying to take on the rest of the world. Our food supply is

a disgrace in many ways and they are hastily approving all sorts of drugs

and procedures that really are found later not to be safe. All the recent

hoo-hah over the drug-eluting stents is a good example. I have one of those

and wonder daily how safe it is, but the doctors can't tell me. My mother,

sister, and brother all took those weight loss drugs that were perfectly

vetted by the FDA and all now have heart and lung problems from them. The

FDA has basically become an advertising tool for the drug industry and

regulates accordingly.

indeed, you speak truth...big pharma owns the fda, and their

ultimate concern is the protection of their profits and their market

share...any remedies that might potentially infringe on these areas

are deamed a threat, and thus the concerns are turned over to the

fda, who has in effect become the enforcement arm for these large

corporations...

 

should it come to pass that the herbs and supplements that i have

the freedom to purchase are no longer availabe, i have a two-pronged

approach to the problem:

 

a) most of the herbs and natural medicines that we use in this

country can be home cultivated, or wildcrafted...as to those exotics

that we cannot grow, a greenhouse comes to mind...it is unlikely

that the fda will hold sway over seeds and plant starts...

 

b) as to vitamins and minerals, taking an informed and scientific

aopproach to nutrition can certainly take up any slack left by the

unavailability of supplements...there is so much good information

available on this subject, and i have amassed a considerable library

on the subject...also, on the site http://www.walford.com , the

website of

the late dr. roy walford, there is a demo copy available for

download of his diet planning software...it is quite powerful, and

fully featured, with only a few restrictions...it is quite handy...

 

lastly, we have until april 30th to voice our concerns to the

fda...past that date, they will no longer accept public

comment...you may go to this site: http://tinyurl.com/2u7ghc ,and

sign an electronic petition to urge the fda to see the light of

reason...our collective voices are the only weapons we have in the

war being waged on our freedoms....please make yours heard...

 

live in peace,
