One! Is there One Example of FDA Proper Labeling, Free of Industry Interests.

One.  We Look for One.
One Time that the FDA gets it right.


Right is defined as objective, supported by equal and thorough testing of all options, free of industry pressure, free of industry manipulation of results./


My Blood Cholesterol is High!

I am told it is fat at fault.

Must take chemicals to fight the Pork!
Pork and fat eaten, produced, surfacing
In All the Wrong Places

My blood cholesterol is high.
Disease!
Because we say so.
We'll spend a bundle, sell you a pill.

Your testosterone is low!
Ennnhhh. No disease. Natural variation. Still,
We'll spend a bundle, sell you a pill.

Pork in the veins
The pill doesn't help you live longer.
Look it up.

Pork in Pharma.
They will sell anything they can.

What do you say, audience, if that is so?
Do the cholesterol-endowed have to take the pill?

Audience: Snort!  We see pork in politics all the time - everybody loves it.

Hear the snort? Go to ://www.sound-effect.com/sounds/pigs/big_pig_snort.wav/ See Pharma get agida.

Now for the testosterone-challenged:

Pharma: I have a little pill!

Enter male Chorister: (Kicks! pirhouettes!) (exits)

Pharma: (cheers)

Hear that? Yes! Hear the cheer that he gets from the Industry pretending this is a disease worthy of great financial investgment. Go to ://www.sound-effect.com/sounds/human/applause/cheer_8k.wav/. Quick! The sounds say to the FDA: Approve Viagra Registered Trademark! Bring on body-musk. Big book reviews on the great Alpha Male. (1)

Viagra Testing


Body parts are open season.
Part the curtains, see the Oz there
Pulling levers in the labs as
Though synthetics are always best;
Skip the plants and lore of history.
See ://lonestartimes.com/images/Benzion/Oz_Curtain.JPG/ain.
Us: looking for our pocketbooks.
Gone. Paid for statins from the labs (2)
Even though my life span's static.

See USC Finch Study at ://www.rand.org/labor/aging/rsi/rsi_papers/2004_finch1.pdf/.
If my doctor were conversant
With the healthcare choices out there
Alternates, the products and the dose,
Happy me. But kickbacks lower?
Watch all gravitate to Pharma.

FDA - easily diverted toward the reward.
Sassafras, fabricate connections

Other alerts: FDA related

• Is fear why "naturals" now are raided? Loss of profit if these things do indeed work? Get information and testing anyway. See other methods at ://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&_uids=9255757&dopt=Abstract/.

True, these things might not be benign. So find out. See ://www.naturalsolutionsradio.com/articles/article.html?id=14494&filter=topic/aided - right or wrong here?

• Does industry expect a payback here? See legislation overview - who benefits at ://www.mdbuyline.com/mdbwebapp/default.aspx?mod=IB&artType=BRIEF/.
  

Views differ. Arguments both sides.

• Corruption. That Lester Crawford gives us pause in that:

He hid his ownership of stock that he
Was supposed to be out regulating.

• Reps gifting the doctors - lures, bribes?

Look at medical Anthropologists
Who study gift patterns of med reps
Selling to "their" docs, patients are the big losers?
Marketing to doctors, the big business, see ://www.anthrosource.net/doi/abs/10.1525/maq.2004.18.3.325/.

• With the human connection still unproved in some FDA testing on mice.

Is FDA taking advantage of
Cancer, as weapon, so that the label
Sinks or swims an industry? Enter all
The lobbyists, the unobjective looks,
The chance for lucrative jobs post-FDA
If you stay in the line and let it go.

• Oversight amok, Lester Crawford again, when

You benefit from the decisions made.
