The FDA has failed to conduct any nutritional or physiological studies whatsoever on h**p biomass. They simultaneously say we need more studies, but do not support, recommend, or conduct any studies on h**p.
However, chemicals, artificial dyes, and preservatives made from petroleum and industrial waste sources were allowed into our food supply with minimal resistance, and still remain even after EPA and other studies reported the dangers.
The FDA has a dissonance with cannabinoid treatment therapies. They simultaneously perpetuate mis-and-dis-information rhetoric about cannabis, and since the 1980's have allowed cannabinoids in prescription form. They refuse to acknowledge the Human Endogenous Cannabinoid System.
Even since the 2018 Farm Bill legalized h**p federally, the USDA has now refused to conduct complex nutritional studies on whole h**p biomass under recommendation of FDA, and NIH. Both sub agencies of USDHHS, and not related to, or dominant to the USDA.
We filed a FOIA to get the USDA FoodData Central's AOAC lab standards and internal selection processes. We contacted labs and sought financing to conduct the study. We still need your help to bring this info to the public and demand Congress and states make further protections for cannabis as a food resource.
Soon we will have the first-ever Organic US Domestic H**p nutritional results for the exact amino acids, and fatty acids present in whole h**p biomass, i.e. flowers, leaves and seeds. We will have that along with a detailed breakdown of h**p biomass nutrition in four ways:
1. Fresh with seeds.
2. Fresh without seeds.
3. Dried with seeds.
4. Dried without seeds.
The USDA refused to conduct this testing, so we filed a FIOA, and coordinated with labs and financing. We are crowd-sourcing, hoping to gain sponsors and contributors in the h**p nutritional realms to help us pay and publish the result in the next few weeks. We still have sponsorship opportunities available starting at just $100 to be listed on our website with backlink.
Those of us who study h**p know of its great nutritional properties, especially whole plant nutritional value. The USDA has only conducted one nutritional study on hulled h**p seeds in 2015, prior to US Domestic H**p Pilot program, and likely irradiated and imported. We are trying to provide the detailed data for the studies they, the USDA, FDA, and NIH, now have formally refused to conduct.
We are the first-ever entity to approach the government to demand action, and to actually conduct a detailed analysis of the whole raw nutritional profile available of the federally legal h**p biomass.
