Summary: A physician supports the petition because processed foods with refined carbohydrates negatively impact the health of their patients and loved ones. The commenter argues that the FDA should provide stronger oversight and regulation of these ingredients to make healthy food choices more accessible.
• I support this petition because processed foods with refined carbs make it harder for me to manage my weight and energy. I feel better and stay full longer when I stick to real, whole foods.
• Please take this issue seriously. I’ve seen how sodas, white bread, and packaged snacks have hurt my patient’s health. We need stronger oversight of these ingredients.
• Cutting back on processed refined carbs has made a big difference for loved ones and patients. Everyone deserves food that helps health, not hurts it.
• As a physician, I’m worried about how many kids' foods are loaded with processed carbs. It shouldn’t be this hard to find healthy choices in the store and in schools.
• These ingredients are in almost everything, and they make it too easy to overeat without real nutrition. I want the FDA to stop giving processed carbs a free pass.
