Here's an excerpt from the FDA's letter to Diamond Foods:
Based on claims made on your firm's website, we have determined that your walnut products are promoted for conditions that cause them to be
drugs because these products are intended for use in the prevention,
mitigation, and treatment of disease. The following are examples of the
claims made on your firm's website under the heading of a web page
stating "OMEGA-3s ... Every time you munch a few walnuts, you're doing
your body a big favor.":
• "Studies indicate that the omega-3 fatty acids found in walnuts may
help lower cholesterol; protect against heart disease, stroke and some
cancers; ease arthritis and other inflammatory diseases; and even fight
depression and other mental illnesses."
• "[O]mega-3 fatty acids inhibit the tumor growth that is promoted by the acids found in other fats ... "
• "[I]n treating major depression, for example, omega-3s seem to work
by making it easier for brain cell receptors to process mood-related
signals from neighboring neurons."
• "The omega-3s found in fish oil are thought to be responsible for the
significantly lower incidence of breast cancer in Japanese women as
compared to women in the United States."
Because of these intended uses, your walnut products are drugs"

"the FDA is all about control of the masses and that psychology is on this bandwagon big time. However, the minute I mention that psychology or FDA or any branch of this mind enchantment is about control or if I even say NWO, I will be labeled as a nut case by my own family"
That's because the control is working...on a mass scale, and there is a flavor of it for every palate.
