If you follow this ridiculous logic, then everything that isn’t junk food is a “drug” because nutrients are “drugs.” Pork is an excellent source of Niacin. Does that make pork a drug. We know the benefits of Niacin.

And how about Calcium. Milk is a good source of Calcium. Calcium is an important nutrient for building bone integrity. Does that make Calcium a drug?

The folks over at FDA clearly have too much time on their hands. Guess this is the thanks we get when we complained about federal employees playing Solitaire on their computers. Now they’re going to punish us for eating healthy diets because anything that isn’t healthy is not a drug.

This is why their budget needs to be halved. I work harder and smarter, I think that they should, too.

Yeah. It gives me the rash from hell when I take it in tablet form. Prescribed? Yes. Will I take it? No.
