We may never know everything about every food etc, but we can make pretty definitive statements about some of the products we're talking about here. Banning products because of anecdotally-reported symptoms is a pretty dark road to walk

I also don't see how demonizing specific additives that we know are likely fine for the majority of the population will reduce processing or packaging. If anything, it'll just drive food producers to less healthy, untested options

“Likely fine” - the modeling for safety is based on old, potentially irrelevant, intake data. Sure upper and lower limits, but rarely any consideration to consumption over a lifetime” or “during growth years for children” or “during pregnancy” .... Modeling is limited.

Gid, it bothers me somewhat you think it acceptable, fine even, for public health messages to be based on “well-meaning motherhood statements” and then ask to heed a warning about a “dark road”?
