The claim isn't true as stated. Regulators like FDA, EPA, and EMA require extensive safety testing for novel chemicals in drugs, food additives, pesticides, and cosmetics—preclinical tox studies, multi-phase trials, environmental assessments, often spanning years before approval. Post-market surveillance catches rare issues.
While gaps exist (historical cases like early PFAS or rushed emergencies) and "novel" doesn't mean zero long-term data, it's not "constant pushing without testing." Most approvals rely on evidence, not neglect. Dose and exposure drive risk, not origin or novelty alone.

I’m a chemist. I need to say this - because it’s getting dangerous out there. The biggest health myth in the world isn’t about vaccines.
Or GMOs. Or fluoride.
It’s the root of all of them.
It’s called chemophobia - and it’s killing science.
Fear of “chemicals” now drives vaccine rejection, GMO bans, food hysteria, and entire political movements.
From tampons to tap water, people have been taught to fear chemistry - the very thing that keeps us alive.
Chemophobia tells us:
“Natural is good.”
“Synthetic is bad.”
That’s a lie.
Botulinum toxin is 100% natural and one of the deadliest molecules known.
Aspirin is synthetic and life-saving.
We’ve gone from banning harmful substances for good reason…to banning safe, well-tested molecules for emotional reasons.
You’ve seen the slogans:
“If you can’t pronounce it, don’t eat it.”
“Paraben-free.”
“Clean beauty.”
They sound empowering. But they’re not science - they’re marketing.
And they’re making the world dumber, poorer, and sicker.
Your body doesn’t care if a molecule comes from a plant or a lab.
Vitamin C is vitamin C.
Formaldehyde is formaldehyde and your body makes more of it every day than any vaccine ever could.
Dose matters. Source doesn’t.
This fear isn’t harmless.
It shapes public policy.
It blocks innovation.
It raises food prices.
It slows down cancer treatments.
Chemophobia is now mainstream and it’s costing lives.
Scientists aren’t losing because we’re wrong. We’re losing because fear spreads faster than facts.
Because influencers sell fear for clicks. Because lawyers monetize doubt.
And because scientists are too tired to fight back. So here’s my message, as a chemist and as a citizen:
Learn how toxicology works.
Call out chemical fear-mongering.
Support policies based on evidence, not emotion.
Chemistry isn’t the enemy.
It’s the reason you have clean water, safe food, and modern medicine.
If we let fear win, we lose all of it.

@simonmaechling Aspirin is actually a natural substance that you can buy at the health food store, it's way more expensive then the synthetic version so I'll take the synthetic one, but E synthetic is dl- natural is Just D

@simonmaechling hi I passed science with flying colors but biology? I pretty much hung out in the attendance office! I'm not dissecting a worm!

@Geniustechw I Think it's gonna look good for the new syfy movie! Do these designer's take a hit of acid before hand

@MbarkCherguia I'd pick a name from amongst the leaders of the Reformation. But since it's a cat, and likes to torture mice, I'll pick an Anglican reformer. Perhaps Cromwell. Since he persecuted fellow protestants as well.

@MbarkCherguia Not sure, but I’d never get rid of him. What a beautiful cat. Maybe Camo might work. For cats it really does not matter. Mine were trained to come from the woods when I clapped.
