So (like i said in my other thread), i am trying to eat healthy to gain control of my ADD and possible mood disorder...
i have been doing A LOT of reading, and i am absolutely appalled at the FDA (and pretty much the whole gov't). I have always been an advocate of trying out 'alternative' cures before drastic surgeries and stuff, but never really thought too much about it.
Now i am discovering some things about the FDA and how they, and of course drug companies, doctors, psychiatrists (of course i am not saying EVERY one of these ppl do this...) are basically making sure americans stay sick, so they can make more money. I have always loved junk food, and laughed at people who ate organic...i seriously have done the quickest 180 in the past few days on that...
Some quick appalling FACTS before i bore you all...
the FDA was threatening to seize cherries off shelves if some small companies that produced them didnt take statements off their websites (they werent even on the packaging) claiming that cherries are "nature's miracle drug", "can cure arthritis", etc...cause they werent approved by the FDA as a drug!! Yes folks, the scientific evidence (and there is a lot) behind cherries wonderful health benefits cannot be stated by manufacturers, cause then cherries would have to be APPROVED BY THE FDA!!!! CHERRIES for goodness sake!!!
Lets see...blueberry bagels contain antifreeze (aka polypropylene glycol) its right there on the ingredients list (obviously not if you are buying organic ones or whatnot...)
-Drugs that have been approved as safe by the Food and Drug Administration kill 100,000 Americans each and every year
there are sooo many more things obviously...but the toxins that we consume everyday are unbelievable. Sugar and salt are so highly processed that they are basically all chemicals - and very detrimental to your health.
If you want to read more about this, i got this info from this article...and there are a ton more articles on the website for you to read if interested.

Basically, many many things we take medications for can be cured by eating a healthy diet loaded with vitamins and minerals. Not to mention the medications we take oftentimes never cure us anyways, and often deteriorate our overall condition in otherways with side effects
