Destroying the FDA to save it? No, more like just destroying it. – Respectful Insolence

Look into this crystal ball:  Destroying the FDA to save it? No, more like just destroying it. – Respectful Insolence:

"First the 21st Century Cures Act passes, weakening the FDA. Next, we’ll very likely end up with either a batshit nutty libertarian who doesn’t believe the FDA should require evidence of efficacy before approving drugs or a real, honest-to-goodness pharma shill as the next commissioner of the FDA. It’s going to be a long four years."

Read the full article: What the 21st Century Cures Act is, and who benefits from it - Business Insider:

"Sponsors of the 21st Century Cures Act call it a win-win: a fusion of funds for medical research with new rules that direct the Food and Drug Administration to approve drugs and devices with greater urgency.

Eating a Handful of Nuts May Prevent Major Diseases | TIME

Read the full article: Eating a Handful of Nuts May Prevent Major Diseases | TIME:

"People who ate about about a handful (20g) of any type of nuts—tree nuts, like hazelnuts, walnuts, pecans and almonds, and peanuts, which are legumes—a day had nearly 30% lower heart disease rates compared to people who didn’t eat nuts, a conclusion previous data supported. But they also had a 15% lower risk of cancer and a 22% lower risk of dying prematurely of any cause. People who ate nuts regularly also cut their risk of dying from respiratory illnesses by nearly half, and they reduced their risk of diabetes by nearly 40%."
