Why Is the FDA Saying It's OK to Eat Seafood 10,000 Times Over the Safe Limit for Dangerous Carcinogens?

Simple: Because those behind the FDA want to kill us.

'Ever since the largest offshore oil spill in history spewed into the Gulf of Mexico last year, independent public health experts have questioned the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's efforts to effectively protect Americans from consuming contaminated seafood.

Now a recent study by two of the most tenacious non-government scientists reveals that FDA Gulf seafood "safe levels" allowed 100 to 10,000 times more carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in seafood than what is safe.

Federal Audit Warns FDA Critically Endangers Our Food Supply

(Spence Cooper)   'The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) warns that the safety of the nation’s food supply is endangered by the FDA, the very agency assigned to monitor food safety on behalf of the public.'

'When our own government openly accuses the FDA of jeopardizing the health and safety of all Americans, the risk level our food safety must indeed be critical.

Food recalls are classified as Class 1, Class 2 or Class 3. Class 1 recalls are issued for products that pose a risk of death or cause irreversible medical harm if consumed.

HHS reviewed 17 Class 1 recalls of imported food items for Salmonella, Listeria and Botulism contamination from mid 2007 through mid 2008. The department would have checked more recent food recalls but couldn’t because many of recalls and their associated investigations are ongoing.'
