 Intimidation and censorship have been well documented at the FDA, and this survey adds further weight to the evidence that the FDA has been utterly co-opted by the pharmaceutical industry and now serves Big Pharma's commercial interests rather than anything resembling a commitment to honest science or public safety. Time and time again, it has been the courageous actions of independent FDA scientists, taking a stand despite intense intimidation and censorship from the agency's top officials, who have warned the U.S. public about dangerous prescription drugs like Vioxx. |

 I can only pray that, in time, these people will be made to answer for their crimes, and that freedom will be returned to the people in the form of a Health Freedom Protection Act that ends the decades of censorship that the FDA has enforced against nutritional supplement companies. The FDA represents an imminent threat to the health and safety of the American people, and its actions are far more dangerous to Americans than all the terrorists in the world. Statistically speaking, even a nuclear bomb going off in a major U.S. |
| The FDA's censorship campaign is, by any measure, outrageously successful, and any company that dares to tell the truth about its own products is very much aware that they risk being put out of business by this rogue agency.
Our last defense against medical tyranny: Free Speech
The only reason that I am able to tell you the truth about the FDA is because I sell no nutritional supplements and earn no money from the sale of such supplements. The FDA has no authority over this article. If they did, I would have been imprisoned and censored off the internet years ago. |
| The FDA is well known for its censorship efforts against nutritional supplements. Earlier this year, the agency sent threatening letters to 29 cherry growers, warning them to remove all links to scientific literature describing the anti-inflammatory effects of phytonutrients found in cherries. Merely linking to such studies from a web page, the FDA warned, instantly transformed cherries into drugs requiring FDA approval. The FDA believes that the dissemination of scientific information about the health benefits of fruits, vegetables and plants simply cannot be tolerated. |
| 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. |
| Think about this: In a nation where telling the truth is a crime, power belongs to those who enforce the censorship. |

 It is a shame that in this country we even need such a bill, but we do need it, because the level of censorship, oppression, and tyranny now practiced by the FDA has reached its apex, and we must fight back with legislation that ends the tyranny of the Food and Drug Administration and reinforces our right to access information that can help us live happier, healthier and longer lives. Support the Health Freedom Protection Act (HR4282) by writing your representatives in Congress and voicing your opinion. |

Literally tens of millions of Americans have been harmed by FDA negligence over the last decade, and well over one million have been killed by FDA-approved prescription drugs -- many of which were approved based on fraudulent scientific data the FDA conveniently chose to overlook. |

 End censorship for nutritional supplement manufacturers
Did you know that if you're a nutritional supplement manufacturer and you actually tell the truth about your product, either on the packaging or your website, you will likely get threatened by the FDA and possibly have your warehouse raided at gunpoint? Through a massive campaign of censorship, intimidation and thuggish tactics, the FDA has managed to scare virtually all nutritional supplement manufacturers into self-censorship. So nobody tells the truth about what their products can do. |

| REPPED: In a truly astonishing survey just released by the Union of Concerned Scientists, the Food and Drug Administration's own scientists describe the agency as an environment of intimidation, censorship and scientific fraud. A survey of 997 FDA scientists revealed that forty percent feared "retaliation" for voicing safety concerns over prescription drugs in public. Over one-third of the scientists didn't even feel safe expressing safety concerns inside the agency, behind closed doors! |
| It rules through intimidation and censorship, not good science and public education. As a result, it has no genuine authority, and no one who is aware of the facts of the situation assigns any kind of credibility to the agency. The FDA is simply one more rogue extension of a federal government that has become a considerable threat to the very people it was supposed to protect and serve.
Prescription drug deaths: The silent holocaust

| Hence, censorship and oppression of scientific information are the tactics used to keep the American people ignorant and, therefore, controlled.
Because it's not just cherries that contain powerful medicine, you see. It's blueberries, garlic, cabbage, onions, ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, aloe vera, almonds and a thousand other natural foods and medicinal herbs. If the public understood the true healing power of these foods -- and the powerful medicines they contain -- conventional medicine and all its drug-pushing participants would suddenly be irrelevant and bankrupt. |
| That's what the drug pushers absolutely cannot allow to happen, and that's why the American people must be kept ignorant at all costs, even if it means engaging in book burning, armed raids on alternative medicine clinics, and jackbooted censorship of simple truths that might empower people to take charge of their own health. It is the most insidious use of power by any federal agency because its aim is ignorance, not education. |
| Stand firm against oppression and censorship, and stand up for your right to tell the truth about the healing benefits of your natural products. The FDA’s reclassification of cherry growers as criminals is a violation of every system of law and ethics that we’ve known on this planet. It is a violation of natural law, it is a violation of God’s law, and it is a violation of basic human rights, which include the right to grow and eat food and share that food with your neighbors along with information about what those foods can do to nourish them. |

| At the FDA, the continued pattern of scientific fraud, intimidation and censorship is only a symptom of a deeper, fundamental problem: The fact that top FDA officials are, in fact, corrupt, criminal-minded bureaucrats who are responsible for the deaths of countless Americans. You can't cure this cancer by treating its symptoms; you have to get rid of the cause of the cancer.
We don't merely need reform, we need prosecutions. |

FDA censorship in full swing at Expo West
Many vendors were complaining to me about the FDA censorship at the show. The New Hope group that organized the show actually invites an "FDA Enforcement Officer" to join the show, and they run around the show sampling brochures and making sure nobody makes any "unproven claims" about supplements, herbs, vitamins or even colloidal silver. |

| That's why the FDA has resorted to censorship and intimidation, using the tactics of organized crime operations to threaten cherry growers and marketers into removing any information from their websites that might reveal the truth about the exciting health benefits of cherries. The CherryFlex manufacturer, for example, cannot even link to this very article without being threatened or raided by the FDA!

So nobody tells the truth about what their products can do. You can't even claim that vitamin C cures scurvy or that vitamin D cures rickets.
(Just so you don't think I'm inventing all this information, read my book, Natural Health Solutions and the Conspiracy to Keep You From Knowing About Them, which documents over a dozen FDA raids on vitamin shops, medical clinics and even a church! |

 Censorship, censorship, censorship!
5. The author of the book has no financial connection directly or indirectly with any of the products discussed in the book. Hmm, this doesn't make any sense. Obviously, Alternative Medicine magazine, The Lancet, and Prevention magazine accept advertising. They have a direct financial connection with the products described, marketed, sold, and promoted in their publications.

 FDA's censorship contributed to a preventable 10,000 neural tube defect births.
Between 1994 to 2000, FDA prohibited companies that sell omega-3 fatty acids from telling Americans that those fatty acids found in fish oil could reduce the risk of coronary heart disease by as much as 50%. FDA's censorship contributed to a preventable 1.8 million sudden death heart attacks. |

| We are not talking about censorship that involves the security of our country or other notable exceptions; we are talking about avoidance of controversial issues and investigative reporting that would reduce media income from advertisers.
In the seven years that the Godfathers of Greed have been allowed by government to advertise their pharmaceutical products directly to the consumer, good investigative reporting has been censored when it might conflict with the $4 billion dollars that have flowed annually into the coffers of the Fourth Estate. |

 What censorship?
Speaking of outstanding science, a White House spokesperson today said the Bush Administration has never forced former Surgeon Generals to censor their speeches or scientific conclusions, except for requiring that they avoid talking about same-sex couples, stem cells, secondhand smoke, emergency contraception or anything involving climate change. Surgeon Generals were also required to repeat the phrase, "Bush is King" at least three times in every speech.

 The FDA already operates a medical dictatorship, complete with censorship, oppression of information and intimidation campaigns against those who attempt to speak out against the agency. (Just ask Dr. David Graham.) This pattern of tyranny permeates American government today. And it has left us with a nation where the people are diseased, afraid and bankrupt.
This is why I predict the nation will not last for one more generation. The United States of America is a nation on a course of self destruction. |

 Today's health care system is nothing short of a medical monopoly -- many even consider it a medical dogma -- and it is achieved through the censorship of alternative and the aggressive commercialization of medical products and services that most patients don't even need.
This is no casual accusation. Read the articles on this website covering the FDA, Big Pharma and conventional medicine to learn the documented truth of how the profiteering corporations that dominate conventional medicine actually seek to exploit patients for profit rather than helping them heal. |
