UPDATE 3-US warns Nestle, others for misleading food claims
Well this is a bit of the pot calling the kettle black. It is now estimated that Vioxx caused some 140,000 heart attacks and 50,000 deaths by heart attack while it was on the market. Was that “fraudulent advertising” by the FDA when they promoted it for treatment of acute pain? If Vioxx were an isolated tragic example one might have some confidence but it is not. Now they are going after a food producers? Further, food can both treat and prevent medical conditions it is all over the medical literature who is the FDA to say this may not be spoken of, it is absurd. Let’s put it another way, do carrots cure vitamin A deficiency night blindness? does food cure marasmus and Kwashiorkor’s disease (i.e. starvation) does water cure renal insufficiency brought on from dehydration. What do you mean people can’t mention foods can treat and prevent diseases, what inanity and infringement of freedom of speech? Stop allowing chemical conncoctions on the market that kill as many Americans as died in the Vietnam war and maybe someone will give a hoot about your warnings.

The FDA says a food that is naturally anti cancerous, which there are many, can’t make that claim unless it is regulated like drug. Can they be a more obvious shill for big pharma. They say a food can’t claim it is trans fat free if it contains saturated fats, even though the two are not the same. This comes when the bill S3002 is trying to regulate all herbs and vitamins. Canada has just done this. They have raided Aloe Vera farms. Here comes the New World Order. We need to dismantle the FDA, they are 100% corrupt. We can do it with state nullification.
