- From the page: "NewsTarget) The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, continuing its campaign of censorship against truthfully-described herbal supplements, seized $71,000 worth of Charantea herbal supplements last week in a raid involving U.S. Marshals. The company, Fulllife Natural Options, was accused by the FDA of marketing an "unapproved drug" due to the truthful marketing claims that accurately describe the blood sugar lowering effects of the product's main ingredient: Bitter Melon fruits."

- We are not really a free country-the FDA gets paid off by the big drug companies-any herb that is effective is not allowed. The FDA DOES NOT PROTECT US, they allow the drug companies to continue to poison us.
I"m lucky that I live where I do and that my Cherokee grandfather taught me which herbs to gather and use.

- Maybe they'll outlaw folk wisdom next. "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." "Oil of yellowdock root has a profound effect on lymph tumors." Next they'll burn the books.
From the page: "The FDA believes that the dissemination of scientific information about the health benefits of fruits, vegetables and plants simply cannot be tolerated.
...There's a revenue stream at stake here, and patients must remain diseased in order for Big Pharma to profit from them. Any herbal product that actually works will quickly find itself in the FDA's crosshairs, especially if it is described with honest, accurate language telling consumers the truth about what the product actually does. Garlic halts the growth of cancer tumors, but don't you dare say it on your web page, or the FDA will consider you a criminal and seize your garlic supplements."

- "Any substance that has any therapeutic effect whatsoever on the human body is considered by the FDA to be a "drug" and must be approved as such -- a lengthy process costing about $800 million and requiring the favor of an agency that practically works for Big Pharma."
