Mike Adams, the Health Ranger reports, "Dubbed the 'Fruit and Vegetables Prescription Program,' it allows doctors to 'prescribe' fresh fruit and vegetables to overweight or obese patients by giving them 'Health Bucks' that are redeemable at local farmer's markets. . .
"This program makes New York City the largest U.S. city to officially acknowledge that fruits and vegetables have a role to play in preventing chronic degenerative disease -- an idea that the FDA insists is delusional. According to the FDA, there is no such thing as any fruit, vegetable, supplement or superfood that has any ability whatsoever to prevent, treat or cure any disease.
". . . according to the FDA, the mere 'prescribing' of a food as something to prevent obesity automatically transforms that food into a 'drug.' Under current FDA regulations, then, NYC is guilty of promoting 'unapproved drugs' which are really just fruits and vegetables. But that's how FDA logic works."
Hmmm. Maybe the FDA is run by aliens who survive on GMOs.
