Officials will also tout the drug leucovorin as a potential autism treatment, in what President Donald Trump has billed as a “very important” announcement.

I’ve got no idea what the alleged evidence for this is, but what I do know is that the people making these announcements are completely untrustworthy.

    Alcohol is worse. Why is no on banning it?

    If you take too much of something, it becomes harmful. What an epiphany.

      I mean the sheer amount of sugar in our food has to be the largest cost to lifespans/healthcare in the U.S.

      Id like to see us make a change over time introducing not bans but better ways to regulate packaging.

      I don’t want it to have warnings everywhere and dead fetuses and shit, I just want things like, green boxes, blue boxes, magenta boxes, stuff like that. Maybe an easy to see letter in the lower left for those who are color blind

          I was talking about boxes/cans for food, like say ramen, cheese it’s, swiss cake rolls, green beans what have you.

          The dead fetuses is a reference to the way countries have tried to use scare tactics on products to get them not to use a product. Like cigarettes. I don’t want them to do that shit with food as well, but bad diets, such as added high fructose corn syrups and what not I was advocating for foods having main colors for boxes and maybe a letter on the can for colorblind people. That says to a purchaser who isn’t going to read, this soup isn’t as bad for me as this other soup. Or when buying snacks for their kids they know are going to sneak them, they can buy snacks/chips etc that are better or worse intentionally with little effort. Bad diets have been and will always be the #1 highest cost to a countries healthcare and leading the natural early death rates.

          Example of what I don’t want:
