Stop Codex: Protect Your Health Freedoms

Health Freedom Threat

I received this from one of my members and feel it is important enough to bring to your attention. The Codex Alimentarius is extremely damaging to health freedoms not just in the US but around the world and if implemented will result in the deaths of people worldwide especially in the developing world. This is worth taking action on. I will add some informative links on this on the blog.

Freedom Mouse Warriors to the Ready:New FDA Guidance Violates US Constitution, Prevents Truthful Health Claims

URGENT ACTION STEPS:

1. The FDA has issued yet another dangerous, health-hostile Guidance with an absurdly short public comment period.

Click here to tell the FDA that you value your right to truthful health claims and demand that the FDA adopt the health-friendly approach defined in the Health Freedom Protection Act, HR 2117.2.

Click here to educate your Congressional representatives to protect your health freedom by becoming a co-sponsor of HR 2117 in the House and introducing identical legislation in the Senate.

HR 2117 would go a long way to restoring our Health Freedom of Choice. It won't pass unless YOU help educate Congress about it.

PLEASE use your computer mouse - as HEALTH FREEDOM MOUSE WARRIOR let Congress know what you want! We need a MILLION messages so Congress can no longer ignore the Health Freedom issue!Health Freedom Protection will not pass either house unless YOU help educate Congress about this critical issue.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE use your computer mouse - become a MOUSE WARRIOR and join NSF in this effort to teach Congress what we need to protect our Right to Freedom of Choice in Healthcare. We need a million messages to Congress so "our representatives" can no longer ignore the Health Freedom issue!And, of course, PLEASE ask your friends and associates to join the Natural Solutions Foundation email alert system by going to http://www.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?key=385974017&url_num=3&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.healthfreedomusa.org%2F and signing up as a Mouse Warrior.

Background

On July 2, 2007, the FDA issued a "Draft Guidance expressing its current thinking" on health claims, "Evidence-Based Review System for the Scientific Evaluation of Health Claims", http://www.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?key=385974017&url_num=4&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cfsan.fda.gov%2F%257Edms%2Fhclmgui5.html apparently in direct response to Dr. Ron Paul's Health Freedom Protection Act, HR 2117, http://www.govtrack.us/congress/billtext.xpd?bill=h110-2117.

Ignoring more than 300,000 letters of support for your right to truthful health claim information, the FDA chose to give itself a restrictive, dangerous and highly Pharma Phriendly regulatory structure to forbid that information. This time, let's make it a million letters.If you use supplements of any kind (or value the US Constitution), this issue touches your life, your liberty and your health. Now would be a really good time to take action on this critical issue and ask everyone in your circle of influence to do the same. By my count, the 60 day FDA Public Comment Period ends on August 31, 2007.

Your right to access information about how supplements can help you is literally at stake. This is the same restrictive process by which the FDA attacked the right of the Michigan Cherry Growers Association to post independent scientific papers on their site which demonstrated that cherries were sometimes helpful in arthritis and gout. "Take those articles off your web site", said our out-of-control FDA, "Or you will have turned cherries into an untested drug and we will make them illegal anywhere in the US!" The Michigan Cherry Growers Association took the articles down. No one coming to their site can learn that cherries can ease or end the misery of gout and arthritis.Clearly, this new Guidance says that supplements are next in the line of fire -- again!

POLAR EXPRESS - Next Stop Pharma CityThere is a set of polar opposites at play in this issue. It is no secret that the FDA is owned lock, stock and conflict of interest by Big Pharma and Big Biotechna. Supplements and healthy food are their biggest competitors and, as in any economic war, they are interested in killing the competition. It is also no secret that the US FDA supports international Food Code (Codex) compliant regulations here in the US, also called "HARMonization".
