FDA Has Gone Nuts: Walnuts and Other Foods Are Drugs (What???)

Vatic Note:  This is bizarre, but now it figures.  This government and others globally, have restricted and in some cases banned natural remedies,  instituted strict regulations and licensing and costs that inhibit our ability to grow our own food, and poisoned what food we do get served to us by the mega food industry and FDA looks the other way, why?  BECAUSE DEPOPULATION is the agenda, and FOOD IS A MEDICINE which its always been, thus interfering drasticly with all their efforts to depopulate us.  No harm has been done whatsoever by publishing claims about the food we eat and we have had that for thousands of years and now all of a sudden its prohibited, and yet,  the FDA WILL NOT BAN GMO products that are scientifically proven to damage our organs, and cause sterility and birth defects and who knows what it does to our DNA which is essential to who we are.    What this crazy making action is really all about is the opposite of what they say they are trying to do.  THIS IS WHY YOU NEED GOV OUT OF OUR FACES and monsanto executives in jail right next to the dept that approved their frankenseeds.  Notice that the seed bank for the robber barons in the ARTIC only CONTAIN HERITAGE REAL SEEDS AND NO GMO SEEDS???  Now why is that ???

FDA Has Gone Nuts: Walnuts and Other Foods Are Drugs

"Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food", Hippocrates.

Since food is medicine, and medicine is food, the Food and Drug Administration, an agency of Health and Human Services, is requiring that claims of food health benefits by sellers, must have federal licensing and scientific proof of such claims. This is to harmonize with Codex Alimentarius, global food and drug control standards.

Dr. Gary Null writes that it is a criminal act to mention that walnuts have health benefits without FDA licensing and approval. This is being extended to all foods.

Some of these actions are reasonable for the abuse of package claims based on fraudulent trick science by Big Food, but they will also be going after good people with good, healthy products that teach nutritional science on their product literature. I am hopeful and there are good people in FDA and other agencies that are fighting against this. Are you?– Augie

More and more letters like this one sent to Diamond Foods are being sent via certified mail and followed up by FDA agents and attorneys in their regional and district offices:

“Based on our review, we have concluded that your walnut products are in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) and the applicable regulations in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR). …Based on claims made on your firm’s website, we have determined that your walnut products are promoted for conditions that cause them to be drugs because these products are intended for use in the prevention, mitigation, and treatment of disease. …Because of these intended uses, your walnut products are drugs within the meaning of section 201 (g)(1)(B) of the Act [21 U.S.C. 321(g)(B)]. Your walnut products are also new drugs under section 201(p) of the Act [21 U.S.C. 321(p)] because they are not generally recognized as safe and effective for the above referenced conditions. Therefore, under section 505(a) of the Act [21 U.S.C. 355(a)], they may not be legally marketed with the above claims in the United States without an approved new drug application.”

Gary Null: In other words, telling the truth about walnuts turns you into a criminal according to the FDA. And if you tell the scientifically-validated truth about how walnuts can help reduce high cholesterol, that act magically transforms your walnuts into unapproved drugs.

And much the same is true when you’re talking about green tea or pomegranates or superfoods. If you dare discuss the health benefits of any food or natural substance while you are selling such items, you will be branded a criminal by the FDA, threatened with criminal prosecution and potentially have your company raided by the FDA along with armed law enforcement agents with guns drawn.

Only junk foods are good for you   

At the same time the FDA is attacking health foods, it openly allows ridiculous health claims on processed dead junk foods. Frito-Lay potato chips, for example, are allowed to carry claims that they are “heart healthy.”
