Remember a while back, not long ago, when the FDA or somebody decided to classify WALNUTS as a “drug”?

Think about it. If somebody was selling walnuts and making medical claims THAT WERE UNTRUE, then the FDA could body slam them and shut them up.

They tried to regulate the walnuts.

Counterintuitively, DSHEA became law 5 years after the L-tryptophan amino acid disaster of 1989, in which 38 individuals died and 1500 sustained adverse reactions.

The bad L-tryptophan came from genetically engineered bacteria - a fact that is rarely mentioned.
