Gov’t Intrusion, Deadly Disease
Gov’t decides we should have more folic acid forced down our throats because studies say “hey look, folic acid prevents birth defects“. (Based on nothing more than in-the-gov’t-pocket so-called “researchers and medical pro’s).
Now, time proves this was more harmful than good (we’re not really surprised now, are we?)
Serious concerns include getting too much of this vitamin. So much so, in a recent study, men and women with a history of colon and rectal tumors who took high doses of folic acid were more likely to have three or more tumors, as well as other cancers.
Thanks, Government. You’re making people more sick – possibly deadly. Literally.
Here’s the explanation from scientists; scientists believe that folic acid protects the body from developing cancerous tumors by repairing errors in DNA. Yet too much may actually nuture the growth of tumors once they form. What’s important to note is that this delicate balancing act is mostly a problem with supplemental folic acid – the form of the vitamin added to supplements and fortified foods (thanks to gov’t interference and “we know it all” attitudes).
And…caution is also called for with vitamin A and beta-carotene, which have now been linked to an increased risk of lung cancer and death among smokers. Why? Because gov’t claimed it was GOOD for smokers.
Gosh, did they want…scratch that.
Oh and the push for selenium – too much of that is now shown to be the cause of an increased risk of certain skin cancers and type 2 diabetes.
What do we see an alarming surge in? Type 2 diabeties.
To quote Fox News…”I’ll report, you decide”.
But I will tell you this: You do NOT want Gov’t running health care!!! The gov’t just has no business whatsoever in our health care. That should be left to medically trained professionals and a 7-year old can even figure that one out.
