Whats the meaning of this statement:?!


Question:

Whats the meaning of this statement:?

"This statement has not been evaluated by the food & drug administration (FDA) This product in not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease." It is found on all vitamins herbs ect. But another question remains. That question would be: How does the FDA know if something cannot prevet or cure a disease if they won't evaluate it? Does the FDA avoid testing in fear that it may actually be true and they would lose a huge amount of money? There is no doubt in my mind that they will go as far as to arrest someone for making a claim about a product! Especially if the product really does work! They may even have wire taps on some people's phone lines and computer!!!! People will do anything to get rich anymore and its sad! I don't think the FDA wants people to die! But I do think that they hope alot of people get sick and stay that way To keep people buying pills and making them money!

Well, if they are so worried that vitamins and supplements are harmful then why not evaluate it?

Well I might have exaggerated about one thing: We all have freedom of speech! So I do not believe the FDA can take that away if someone makes a claim about a product.


Answers:

FDA places that statement on ANY drug or food that has not been thru a 15 year 25 million (almost a year) testing process.

By placing that statement, it limits liability for anything that happens to a person.

They do not arrest them, HOWEVER they make them PRODUCE all of their RESEARCH, making it public domain, or get HEAVILY FINED.

Which in turn allows drug companies to take the research, utilize it save money and charge us more.

FDA only wants to recognize drugs from PATENTED and approved drug companies. Any health issue is not at present required to meet the FDA standards,.

You want to place blame, place it on the legislators who make these stupid laws that cause so much cost to the drug companies that is in turn passed on to us

They all treat us like we are idiots, cannot do our own research, and decided what is best in the field of vitamins, and herbal remedies.

Sore point with me lol
