Change FDA regulations that unfairly favor drug over food science.
Good science regarding eating specific fruits and vegetables cannot be advertised on labels, media or websites by farmers unless the science meets the same testing required for drug approval which costs on average $10,000,000 and takes years to complete. Given that whole foods cannot be patented and do not have negative side effects like drugs, current regulations make it virtually impossible for this science to reach the majority of Americans giving pharmaceutical companies an unfair advantage over food in the competition for the health of our nation.
Why is this important?
The quality of food science has never been better and some miraculous discoveries are being made. The best example I know to illustrate this point is are you aware of the science behind three day old broccoli sprouts? More than 1,000 peer-reviewed scientific papers have been published showing how eating only one ounce every three days powerfully prevent cancer by maximizing our body's own antioxidant levels and by suppressing many bad genes that lead to cancer as well as heart disease, alzheimer's and diabetes as well as awakening dormant genes such as tumor suppressor genes. They have also been shown to kill all types of cancer cells and cancer stem cells, repair damage to lungs caused by smoking, reverse damage to veins caused by diabetes, prevent macular degeneration, kill even antibiotic strains of Helicobacter pylori bacteria, prevent or slow the progression of osteoarthritis and much more.
The quicker we change these regulations the better as thousands of Americans are currently dying and suffering needlessly. Personally, I am deeply moved to create this petition by the fact that my life has been saved from loads of health issues or premature death by eating broccoli sprouts. I have two very bad genes that have been suppressed. One of them MTHFR 677 T/T is referred to in medical school as the "Mother F***er Gene". My doctors marvel at my health given my genetic foundation. They attribute it to eating broccoli sprouts for 16 years and all of them eat broccoli sprouts as a result of my inspiring them to read up on the science. I am pained to see this science being suppressed by the FDA. As well as all the other food science I am not aware of because it's not on the packaging.
