Walnuts are Drugs says FDA article The FDA are now labeling Walnuts a drug and not a food, due to the health benefits they have. Walnuts can help reduce risks of heart disease and certain types of cancers. Diamond Foods continue to ague that it's a health food, but the FDA are dead set on considering it a drug that hasn't been regulated by them yet. I don't know about you, but this sounds like the FDA went full retarded. You NEVER go full retarded.
I'm as stumped as you there. But from what it looks like, Walnuts have poperties in them that help with preventing heart disease and certain cancers, so because of this, the FDA considers it a drug and not a nut because it prevents things, like regulated drugs do. It's stupid logic, but the people at the FDA are idiots to begin with for deciding to get butthurt over walnuts.
FALSE: FDA Classifies Walnuts as Drugs Remember to factcheck things like these, if it seems too ridiculous to be true, it probably is
Check the sources on this. The "news" is coming from an obscure site about the "organic lifestyle," and that site in turn is citing a site that sells supplements, and a far-right pseudo-news publication.
Oh man, I was worried about not being able to eat walnuts anymore hahaha. Glad it was only false though.
I'm generally a lot better with discerning fake from real, but it seems I was a bit out of it that day. Yeah, I really wouldn't like for walnuts to be banned. They are really great to have.
