Should the Government have control of what we eat

I saw this headline and it got me to thinking. I think it would be dangerous to say yes to this question. It raises the point of who controls the Government and how they could and even now do affect our Government. We are being badgered to take Vaccines and we are being asked to accept genetically modified foods and if you read the information you will come to realize as I do that this is a very dangerous road to take. This is all encouraged by the corporations that have billions to gain and who care little about our real natural bodies and the stasis that we all achieve if we take care of ourselves in the most natural ways possible.
Lets look at another question. Should the Government have control of what we do NOT eat.
This seems to be a more sensible question. To date as the Governments of the world are in the hands of lobbies and money from the large Corporations with much to gain we are being restricted by our health care systems through legislation and publicity against all alternative paradigms of healing. The finest example of this is in England where the anti homeopathic groups sponsored by the Pharmaceuticals are constantly working to have Homeopathy struck from CAM support. It is a travesty of justice that this is happening and the deep pockets of the Pharmaceutical industry just keeps hammering away to destroy all but their own dangerous drugs. The same can be said of the chemical companies who are destroying the very land we live on with fertilizers and one crop GMO farms with pesticides that kill parts of our food chain be they insects of all kinds and the birds and animals who could on variety and not vast tracts of one crop cultures.

Imagine if Governments took it upon themselves to tell us what we cannot eat. Coca cola, soda pops, might top the lists along with overrefined products and a more serious curtailment of alcohol and tobacco might be undertaken. These in the end cost much more money in health care than the taxes they earn.
