How closely are GMOs regulated?
There are people who will say GMO foods are closely regulated, but the FDA has declared them to be "substantially equivalent" to their non GMO equivalents. They have a voluntary consultation process for the developing company to consult with them before new GMO varieties are approved, which is not actually regulating them at all. The approval process for genetically modified animals appears to be much tighter.

Is force factor fda approved?
AnswerForce Factor is not a drug, it is a supplement. Supplements are not evaluated by the FDA.AnswerThe above answer is somewhat wrong. Dietary supplements are regulated by the FDA, but they face a different and more lenient set of rules than do prescription drugs or over-the-counter medications. One of the big differences is that the maker of the supplement does not have to file with the FDA. Rather, it is required to ensure that the supplement is safe and that the statements on the label are truthful and not misleading. They are bound under law and regulated by the FDA to keep to these rules, and the FDA is responsible for taking action against any supplement makers that break them.
Beer nutrition facts?
Beer does not have a nutrition facts label because, like most other alcoholic beverages, it is regulated by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), rather than the FDA. Unlike FDA regulated foods, TTB regulated products cannot have a nutrition facts label, largely because such a label could be seen as promoting beer as "healthy", which--for better or worse--our government has decided is unacceptable. A full answer to this question, including discussion of interesting exceptions (for "lite" beer and for hard cider, in particular), is available here: http://foodinamerica.wordpress.com/2010/07/30/a-new-alcohol-law-blog-nutrition-facts-and-beer/
