FDA says Walnuts are Drugs and Doritos are Heart Healthy

Re: FDA says Walnuts are Drugs and Doritos are Heart Healthy

This is more of InfoWars stuff than gaia stuff. :p I like Alex jones.

Before people start going on and on and on about the FDA, perhaps they could also look at the other side of the coin. Most people haven't got a clue what kinds of mistakes the pharmaceutical/cosmetic/food industries have made in the past. Its only because of the development of regulatory guidelines via the FDA that we are much much safer today. We don't have to think twice about taking a pill thats out there in the market. If its there, its safe (99.9999% of the times today)... and thats all because of the FDA.

Just like any other industry, FDA too has corrupt people working there. Don't generalize and don't blame the whole thing. FDA has all the rights to question companies over their products... anything that goes on or in the body is regulated by the FDA, they have the authority, and if some people working there are found to be abusing that authority then they will be dealt with.

Don't know about the bribing but I do know that even the top pharma company in the world (Pfizer) has many court cases pending.

Alhumdulillah I started off my career in a company for whom ethics mean everything, but that company too has had a few troubles in the past due to some corrupt people of the time.

FDA is obsessing over labelling walnuts when common food items need more urgent warnings and labels, cannot believe that the majority of breads and cereals out there have a disgustingly unhealthy dose of high fructose corn syrup, that is being fed to people who are completely unaware. big song and dance over obesity rates in the country yet they refuse to do something concrete like banning this processed poison (or at least put a mandatory label of caution) and other cheap crap they are putting in our food.

certainly .. you got it .. ;)

:salute:
there is a huge issue with labelling on packaged foods
I have worked in the industry, and left the industry because of this one reason more than anything
I abhor their approach

u have to look at it in a few ways, are there ingredients that are legal, regardless of how bad for you, well then whether the next step there is to try and get that ingredient be labelled as dangerous, thats what is needed, or a focus on trying to have companies note that a product includes HFCS, just like now they are doing with aspertame for example (which btw is worse than HFCS)

its going to take pressure from consumer groups.

but before that you have to deal with issues like nitrates and nitrites which are known carcinogens and present in most processed meat products, but they exist.

so if something cant be declared illegal, there should be pressure to have a disclosure where companies have to label that the product contains it.

we are way behind europe in our food labeling and packaging laws,

I am glad that FDA is atleast getting serious about companies making health claims ..we have seen tons of those, from fate free, no sugar added, diet, light, lite and all that stuff to promising benefits and then charging a premium.

Nope. Something as simple as high fructose levels etc is known to majority of people nowadays. Especially those who have ever considered dieting. There's even articles upon articles about the daily food supplements that people take.

We all know what French Fries do to us, do we stop eating them? No. Smoking is another example. Every packet has a warning. Still doesn't have an affect on people.

Which is kinda ironic, because the FDA originated in the States. The rest of the world simply followed them. Today, I trust the Japanese more than anyone else when it comes to quality.

same here.
