Save our supplements US....
I know this has been posted before and I don't know exactly how the politics work with these things... but someone..a vendor I use just sent me this info again... so I'm posting about it again...This will send a message to the FDA... So if you are interested please respond..
According to an email I received recently from a vendor that I use they are at it again... If you are concerned about being able to buy health supplements in the quantities you want and have access to all that is available you can let your voice be heard here...
We have until Feb 1 to respond. They're trying to do away with natural supplements, by putting them in the "medical" doctors' realm -- only by prescription, just like the European Union is doing.
After I sent my letter I got this back as an auto response.....
