No - none of the gov't arms like FDA, EPA or USDA do their own research when it comes to approval of drugs, food products or GMOs. I don't think most Americans are aware of this. They review research provided by the makers of these things - those most invested in having a POSITIVE outcome. It's a complete CONFLICT OF INTEREST and it's why so many drugs or GMOs or chemicals etc. are "approved" and then LATER it's found out they're toxic, poisonous, debilitating, noxious, etc.
