Every few months, jurors in a progressive city, where science is regarded as a corporate conspiracy, issue some judgment against a common weedkiller known as glyphosate.Are they so stupid they think plants are little people? Or that humans carry the same pathway that the chemical acts on in weeds? Sure, but environmental trial lawyers hoping to get even richer also have an International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) monograph on their side. In 2015, the French group of epidemiologists declared it a possible carcinogen, even though every scientific body had found that was not the case.They call it science, but it isn't. It is only epidemiology.

Currently, if you are worried you might have chlamydia or gonorrhea, you had to have a sample collected at your doctor's office, and in states like California that could mean waiting months for an appointment. FDA has now granted marketing authorization for the Simple 2 Test, which will be available over-the-counter and is the first non-HIV sexually transmitted disease test with at-home vaginal swabs or urine specimens.

An advocacy group claims one third of all Americans is "at risk" for diabetes.That isn't true. Even at the a1c level CDC oddly expresses concern about, fewer than 5 percent of people will go on to develop diabetes - in their lifetime. That is not clinically relevant and if it is not clinically relevant it is as pointless and shamanistic as a doctor telling every patient to eat less salt. It may help a few people but most will just be annoyed by bland food.Obesity is overwhelmingly the cause of type 2 diabetes but claiming everyone overweight has the same "increased risk" is not just bad science, it is even bad epidemiology - and in modern times that field basically exists to scare people about supernatural levels of chemicals or help write miracle food books.

The FDA issued a notification that Mid America Pet Food is recalling lots of its Victor dog foods due to Salmonella contamination uncovered by a third-party. Like all companies, they make lots of stuff marketed to anyone with money to spend, and that includes "organic" manufacturing processes. But organic doesn't mean disease-free, it actually means increased risk of disease.The odd thing about this is the the infected are primarily infants across the 7 states affected.

There has been a shortage of Ozempic, a weight loss drug to help those with type 2 diabetes control their appetites, because rich people began to get it "prescribed" by physicians as a diet tool.

FDA is warning people gullible enough to buy Dr. Ergin’s SugarMD Advanced Glucose Support, supposedly because it can 'naturally' control blood glucose, that if it did anything they only had an effect because these grifters Illegally adulterated it with glyburide and metformin, prescription medications for overweight people who've contracted type 2 diabetes. If you own it, throw it in the garbage, and then stop buying 'miracle' potions, pills, and salves that virtue signal to anti-science beliefs about medicine. If it's a supplement, it isn't medicine. That's why it's called a supplement. 

A few years ago, it was common for Whole Foods to blatantly lie in its marketing. Now, "organic" food is a $125 billion Big Food segment so they no longer need to lie and claim they are 'healthier' than normal food, or lie and suggest they don't use pesticides. 

In response to some young people experimenting with an effective smoking cessation tool, nicotine vaping, the Obama CDC did what more social authoritarian governments frequently do - overreact in order to convince the public they solved a problem few had.Vaping, the stupidly named e-cigarettes, were a fad and therefore some grifters did want to sell stuff to kids, no differently than grifters at Non-GMO Project sell labels for 70,000 products, at a minimum of $3,000 each, to companies who want to bilk consumers with the intelligence level of Whole Foods shoppers. Those needed to be run out of business, no question, but having the CDC declare an "epidemic", and including any young person who had even experimented with vaping in 6 months, was silly.

In 2020, storms caused an estimated $12 billion in damage, including in Iowa, where a giant amount of America's corn is grown. Yet only 16 percent of the state's corn was ruined.The reason was science; the corn had been genetically engineered to be shorter. That meant it needed less water, and resulted in less environmental strain, plus shorter stalks meant less risk from wind.
