I would just add a few more dates. I think one thing about the research, we're one of the only countries in the world where the burden of proof for harm, we allow these chemicals to just enter our food system. We have 10,000 chemicals in our food system. Europe, only 400 because they have to show that it's safe before they use it.

We're allowed to use it and then only if there's issues that crop up do people have to do research. There's this ridiculous

GRAS generally recognizes safe designation which is essentially a company self assesses whether the chemical that they are creating is generally recognized as safe no one's overseeing it and Brigham talks about this like compassion for the FDA they're overwhelmed there's a lot of stuff to do it's kind of like a hoarder's house where do we even start like I don't necessarily know if I buy that.

I think that it's pretty bad and bought off that we have all these chemicals. But they basically just have to self-designate if it's generally recognized as safe and then it can go into our food system. One thing that I find really interesting is like that I really reflect on a lot is like, what is the difference between a food chemical and a drug?

They're all just synthetic molecules that are made in factories, in labs by scientists. Do you know what the difference is? Intended use. So basically, if the intended use is for food, you can synthesize almost anything you want and put it in food.

We are being mass drugged and poisoned in our food system with 10,000 virtually unregulated chemicals, which have bought off papers saying that they are safe. I mean, you look at what happened with all the Monsanto litigation about non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. They had to release...

this whole thing called the monsanto papers they were declassified where they ghost writ scientific they ghost wrote scientific papers saying that glyphosate is safe so there's all this corruption in there where basically we have 10 000 unregulated chemicals in our food system and we're getting sick as hell obviously and then you've got the evidence-based people saying well we need to have a 10-year longitudinal study to show that glyphosate is causing xyz disease and it's like obviously that's not the right approach because first of all
