Below is another article on the proposed FDA ban on supplements. Please consider contacting Congress via http://www.anh-usa.org/vitaminwar/
to request that they stop this assault on our access to supplements.

On the Friday before the Fourth of July weekend, the FDA published a 47-page document, that would ban all nutritional and supplemental ingredients by requiring them to file documentation involving multi-million-dollar testing and the regulations would be retroactive to 1994!

This will destroy the manufacturers of these products because most are small companies that could not afford such costs. It’s not like there is a vast body of information that demonstrates any threat to health from vitamins and minerals. Quite the contrary. There is ample information on their benefits. There are libraries filled with books devoted to this.

Who would benefit from such regulation of the natural supplement industry? Big Pharma. The same pharmaceutical companies that have a long record of putting forth FDA-approved medications that later prove to be lethal are looking to use the regulatory powers of FDA to literally increase levels of illness.

In the same way Obamacare has been demonstrated to not only be unconstitutional, but also a threat to the health of millions—especially senior citizens—this callous administration now threatens to remove from the shelves of stores that sell nutritional supplements, from pharmacies, and from supermarkets and other outlets, the vitamins, minerals, and herbal supplements on which millions depend for wellness.

This constitutes a criminal Conspiracy and Congress, which has ceded its law-making authority to the FDA, must hear from everyone in order to stop this assault on everyone’s health.

Look, Democrats are even more notoriously fascist than Republicans. Key Democrat votes were bought by bribery for Obamacare to pass. It will take a divine miracle to clean out these Augean stables, starting with Chicago-ites, the black hole of political integrity. "Heil, Hillary!" Her health care proposal under Bill's presidency proposed jailing sick people who went to private, non-governmental doctors. And is there anybody who thinks alternative medicine will be underwritten by the Republicrats? Oy.

Please call your Representative and Senators and ask them to hold whatever Congressional hearings are necessary to prevent this from happening.

This website provides further information on the FDA's ban and contacting Congress to stop it.

How is it that drugs must go through years of extensive FDA mandated stage trials and maybe never get into use while supplements get a free ride? Safety, purity and verified dosage are not worthy objectives?

Please contact by both phone and email your Senators and Congressional Representative and request that they do whatever is necessary to prevent the FDA from enforcing these New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) regulations.

The Citizens for Health has just issued their warning.
