The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or USFDA) is a federal agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, one of the United States federal executive departments. The FDA is responsible for protecting and promoting public health through the regulation and supervision of food safety, tobacco products, dietary supplements, prescription and over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs (medications), vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, blood transfusions, medical devices, electromagnetic radiation emitting devices (ERED), cosmetics, animal foods & feed and veterinary products.
The FDA was empowered by the United States Congress to enforce the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, which serves as the primary focus for the Agency; the FDA also enforces other laws, notably Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act and associated regulations, many of which are not directly related to food or drugs. These include regulating lasers, cellular phones, condoms and control of disease on products ranging from certain household pets to sperm donation for assisted reproduction.
Robert Califf is an American cardiologist, the Deputy Commissioner of the United States Food and Drug Administration's Office of Medical Products and Tobacco since January 2015. In September 2015, Califf was nominated by President Barack Obama to be the next Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration.
Califf was born in 1951 in Anderson, South Carolina. He attended high school in Columbia, South Carolina where he was a member of the 1969 AAAA South Carolina Championship basketball team. He attended Duke University, graduating in 1973 summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa. In 1978, he graduated from the Duke University School of Medicine in Durham, North Carolina, and was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha medical honor society. He left North Carolina only for an internal medicine residency at the University of California, San Francisco, and returned in 1980 to Duke to complete a fellowship in cardiology. He is board-certified in internal medicine (1984) and cardiology (1986), and a Master of the American College of Cardiology (2006).
Gary Michael Null (born 1945) is an American talk radio host and author who advocates for alternative medicine and naturopathy and who produces a line of dietary supplements. He is an AIDS denialist and an anti-vaccinationist.
His views on health and nutrition are at odds with scientific consensus; psychiatrist Stephen Barrett, co-founder of the National Council Against Health Fraud and webmaster of Quackwatch, described Null as "one of the nation's leading promoters of dubious treatment for serious disease".
On his radio show, and in books and self-produced movies, Null attacks the medical community, promotes a range of alternative cancer treatments, denies that HIV causes AIDS, opposes genetically modified foods, and promotes dietary supplements which he produces.
In 2010, Null reported that he and six other consumers had been hospitalized from vitamin D poisoning, after ingesting a nutritional supplement carrying his name and endorsement. Null sued a contractor involved in producing the product, alleging that each contained more than 1,000 times the dose of vitamin D reported on the label.

Plot: In the documentary 'inGREEDients', registered nurse and filmmaker David Burton, discovers an alarming connection between diet and illness while investigating trans fats and hydrogenated oils in America's food supply. Do you know what a partially hydrogenated oil is? What does zero grams of trans fat per serving really mean? Find out in this compelling documentary that takes the audience on a time-line journey through the history of human food consumption from prehistoric times to the present, when heart disease is the number one killer of humans and despite recent changes in food labeling laws, pounds of trans fats are consumed everyday. This documentary features interviews with medical doctors, natural health doctors, scientists and researchers, politicians, journalists, and the lawyer that successfully stood up against two corporate food giants whose products are household names across America. The film also includes a brief look at heart disease, diabetes, and obesity, the three diseases most directly connected with our consumption of trans fats, chemical food additives, and processed food. With cutting edge animations rarely achieved in independent filmmaking, 'inGREEDients' will entertain, inspire, and educate all audiences of all ages.

FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, M.D., announced a comprehensive regulatory plan for tobacco and nicotine regulation that will serve as a multi-year roadmap to better protect kids and significantly reduce tobacco-related disease and death, including pursuing lowering nicotine in cigarettes to non-addictive levels. A key piece of the approach is demonstrating a greater awareness that nicotine—while highly addictive—is delivered through products that represent a continuum of risk and is most harmful when delivered through smoke particles in combustible cigarettes.

THANK YOU FOR WATCHING! Check out my latest vlog at the Health Food Store: https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&video;_id=BfiGfbRFgFU Healthy Food Shopping Tips: 1.) Make sure you are checking the expiration dates on what you purchase-- some supermarkets might mark down items in effort to try and push out the stuff that hasn't sold in a while-- the fresher you go with your food the better. 2.) When you are walking through the isles, most supermarkets will have their items with the highest price-point rights in your sight so you can see it clearly. Next time you are walking through your grocery store, look a little higher and lower than the middle of the isle, and you might find the cheaper (but still just as good) items they might not want you to see right away due to the lower price-point...

This video by Chaninat & Leeds law firm discusses the Thailand FDA application process. An increasing amount of medical service suppliers are venturing into the Thailand market, thanks to the booming medical business and rising middle class purchasing power.

The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) hosted a webinar on April 25, 2016, soon after the release of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Final Rule on Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food. This final rule is part of FDA’s implementation of the 2005 Sanitary Food Transportation Act. It builds on current food transportation best practices and is focused on ensuring that the individuals transporting food at the greatest risk for contamination during transportation follow appropriate sanitary transportation practices.

I looked for trouble and I found it son,
Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun.
I'd try to run but I don't think I can,
You make one move and you're a dead man, friend.
Ain't livin' long like this,
Can't live at all like this, can I baby?
He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back,
Then left me freezin' on a steel rail rack.
Can't sleep at all in the jailhouse baby,
Ain't livin' long like this.
Grew up in Houston on the wayside drive,
Son of a car hop in some all nite dive.
Dad drove a stock car to an early death,
All I remember was a drunk man's breathe.
Ain't livin' long like this,
Can't live at all like this, can I baby?
We know the story how the wheel goes 'round,
Don't let 'em take you to the man downtown,
They got 'em all in the jailhouse baby.
Ain't livin' long like this,
Can't live at all like this, can I baby? Ah take it!
{Erik - Solo}
I live for Angel, she's a road house queen,
Makes Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee.
I want to love her but I don't know how,
I'm at the bottom of a jailhouse now.
Ain't livin' long like this,
Can't live at all like this, can I baby?
You know the story 'bout the jailhouse rock,
Go on and do it, but just don't get caught.
They got 'em all in the jailhouse baby.
Oh, ain't livin' long like this.
Oh no!
