Look it up, it began in earnest in the early 1900s when Carnegie and others began seeding the Universities with big cash to do “research” in an area that had been Homeopathic and natural for centuries.

Right. All the great Homeopaths of the past like this:

Selling crap like this:

Which is why the Pure Food and Drug act was passed in 1906 as a first significant effort by Congress under the Commerce Clause to prevent mis-branding and adulteration of food and drug products entered into inter-state commerce in the US.

Throughout the 20th century and now into the 21st, as the science became better requirements for prevention of mis-branding extended to demonstrations of both safety and efficacy of medicinal products, including now medical devices, combination drug-device products and biologics/biosimilars.

Better living through Chemistry, it is sick and perverted and I am working to take it down. Hard!

Your ignorance apparently knows no bounds, and speaking as one with 36 career years in the pharmaceutical drug development and regulatory space, I have traveled throughout the world to assess manufacturing integrity and capabilities of firms domestically as well as in China, India and Africa and throughout the EU and to guide the successful approvals of the highest quality medicines available -- all on the basis of the best science available.

I am here to guarantee your failure in what ever Luddite endeavor you decide undertake, that doesn't already have you in jail for having attempted it.

FReegards!

Opinions vary and I am talking about replenishment of minerals and other elements necessary for proper body function, and NOT pharmaceuticals

Your insinuation that the FDA was founded under the premise you state is not borne out by real research, but the truth is we existed and thrived without synthetic materials for generations beyond counting. everything we need to be healthy was put here but no one can make money selling them as they can via synthetics.

Read if you will the message from Q about Pharmaceuticals, and it is not a positive one. I am sure you can step out of your ego long enough to do so, and answer the question what does he know that (gasp) you don’t or ignore

I will say that the level of research I do goes in many cases down to the DNA level, and I personally do not care if you choose ad hominem posting attacks you have a right to plant your flag where you choose
