The FDA's Cult of Tyranny
Five years ago, a Subcommittee on Science and Technology report entitled “FDA Science and Mission at Risk” detailed how the FDA cannot fulfill its mission, in part because its scientific base has eroded and its scientific organizational structure is weak
The report found that the development of medical products based on “new science” cannot be adequately regulated by the FDA, the agency does not have the capacity to carry out risk assessment and analysis, and that the agency’s science agenda “lacks coherent structure and vision, as well as effective coordination and prioritization.” The subcommittee concluded the FDA’s failures place the health of Americans and the financial health of the nation at grave risk
Gary Null’s documentary film War on Health: The FDA's Cult of Tyranny features pioneering American and European attorneys, physicians, medical researchers and advocates of health freedom, and exposes the FDA's militaristic operations against organic food providers and alternative physicians
It recently came to light that the FDA has engaged in sophisticated spying and surveillance activities against scientists on its staff who expressed concerns over the agency’s approval of medical imaging devices, such as mammograms, that expose patients to dangerous levels of radiation
According to one recent report, if the current trend continues, by the year 2035 the average family will face medical costs in excess of 100 percent of their income. Part of the answer to avert this disaster is to allow alternative and complementary medicine to flourish and coexist with conventional therapies.
Gary Null's documentary film War on Health: The FDA's Cult of Tyranny premiered earlier this summer in New York City. You can view it in full above, and I strongly encourage you to set aside the time to do so.
Gary doesn't mince words in his introductory speech, in which he lays out how the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has usurped the power of Congress to create laws for itself, with the aim to destroy all competition to the pharmaceutical industry. Over the past couple of years, we've seen repeated attempts to introduce legislation that would virtually eliminate any and all nutritional supplements, and strict laws banning dissemination of certain information about the health benefits of foods and supplements have already been implemented.
The FDA is constantly complaining about being underfunded, yet despite the fact that millions of people are harmed by drugs each year, the agency is not clamping down on dangerous drugs. No, instead it spends its scarce resources going after competitors to Big Pharma, such as raw milk producers, cherry farmers2 and walnut growers—typically over marketing claims and natural food production practices that have been safely used for centuries, such as raw cheese, labeling such foods "dangerous."
