BLOWING THE WHISTLE ON THE COVER-UP
An Interview with John Hammell of International
Advocates For Health Freedom (IAHF)

Crusador Newsletter DEC-JAN 2004, (ISSUE 16)
In August 2005, everything in Europe is about to change.
Over 300 bioavailable nutrient forms present in over 5,000 safe vitamin and mineral products that include a large number of the safest, most readily absorbed and most effective, food-derived forms will be banned from the market.
It stems from radical legislation passed in Europe by member State governments in June 2002 known as the EU Food Supplements Directive (FSD).
The list of banned items includes
natural vitamin forms such as mixed tocopherols (natural vitamin E),
carotenoids
methylcobalamin,
all forms of sulphur,
boron,
vanadium,
silicon
and most trace elements,
the most readily absorbed and safest forms of calcium,
magnesium,
zinc,
selenium,
chromium and
molybdenum.
It will severely limit the doses of vitamins and other nutrients
allowed in products, removing all high-dose products from the market.
It will include future restrictions on nutrient forms other than
vitamins and minerals such as:
fatty acids,
amino acids,
enzymes,
probiotics,
phytonutrients, etc.
It will dramatically limit future innovation in the dietary supplement industry, with consequent serious impacts on retail outlets, complementary practitioners and consumers who choose to take responsibility for their own health.
In addition to denying most Europeans access to safe nutritional
supplements, this draconian EU Directive is going to be used as the blueprint for establishing international dietary supplement laws at Codex of which the U.S. has agreed to adopt.
If this happens, which is a very likely scenario in the next year or so, Codex will outlaw or severely restrict virtually everything millions of us have grown accustomed to using safely every day.
We no longer live in a world where national borders mean much of
anything. We are witnessing the rapid unification of the world into a new global government with Europe at the helm.
When the World Trade Organization (WTO) was given teeth to enforce international trade laws in the early 1990s by establishing an international court known as the Dispute Settlement Body, all WTO member nations in principle agreed to harmonize their domestic trade laws to a new set of
international laws so every nation operates by the same set of
standards.
Most supplement consumers were unaware at the time that in effect, this would eventually lead to an incremental attack on all of our food supplements here in America and around the world. Most supplement companies have simply gone along with the advice from their pharmaceutically dominated trade associations and know very little, if any, about what is taking shape across the Atlantic.
The Alliance for Natural Health (ANH), a consumer advocacy group based in Britain, was recently granted the green light to challenge the FSD at the last minute; however, very rarely has a EU Directive ever been overturned and in this case, it would be a historic event considering the pharmaceutical interests backing its implementation. Resources are very
scarce and desperately needed to keep the lawsuit going to overturn the Directive before it's too late.
They've hired a top staff of EU lawyers and together with its
multidisciplinary team of experts they are prepared for a legal challenge in a EU Court. With the EU expanding by ten more nations in early 2004 to a combined total of twenty-five member nations, and with heavy pressure to finalize a Codex vitamin standard, we're at a critical juncture on this
issue. If the FSD is not overturned, and with Europe's ever-expanding power, it's very possible that there will be enough countries onboard to overrule the U.S. at Codex where many
parts of the FSD will be used when international vitamin laws are codified. Once a Codex vitamin law is finalized, it will supercede all U.S. supplement laws. The only way for America to truly protect its vital interest is to get out of the U.N. and the WTO entirely, which is something nobody realistically sees happening. If America is not vigilant to this threat, our supplement industry will be blindsided and knocked out
without even putting up a valiant fight.
In an effort to educate supplement consumers around the world to this dangerous threat to our health freedoms, CRUSADOR interviewed John Hammell of IAHF in a no holds barred discussion. Hammell has been sounding the alarm since 1996 that serious trouble is brewing for our industry.
Unfortunately, John's pleas for help have mostly fallen on deaf ears as these international agreements continue to plod forward virtually unopposed and with complicity from high level U.S. delegates with pharmaceutical ties representing us at Codex. The time to muster the troops and kill this Directive and block a very restrictive Codex vitamin standard is now. Otherwise, it will be too late and America's supplement laws will be harmonized to a new set of draconian international vitamin laws.
John, Let me begin by asking you who IAHF is and how you got started in this movement?
International Advocates For Health Freedom (IAHF) http://www.iahf.com
is a consulting firm to the dietary supplement industry on legislative issues. I do lobbying in Washington and all over the world, public speaking, and grass roots organizing - mostly via my website and email distribution list which anyone can sign onto at my website. I write articles, and serve as a catalyst to try to get people working together to defend their common interest in the face of this Pharma threat to block our
access to natural products. I first established IAHF in 1996 while I was sitting on an airplane coming back from a U.N. Codex Alimentarius Commission vitamin meeting in Germany.
Can you explain to our readers a little bit more about Codex?
I'd be glad to. The United Nations Codex Alimentarius Commission was originally created in1963. "Alimentarius" means "food code" in Latin. The Codex Alimentarius is the most authoritative set of international food standards ever proposed. It was set up as a joint program of the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO). It was created ostensibly to generate a harmonized
trade standard for governing the international sale of all food
products. The goal was to eliminate the expense of compliance with a variety of different country regulations by establishing one universal standard, thus enabling companies to more efficiently move their products. Germany, the largest pharmaceutical manufacturing nation on earth, currently
dominates the EU which hosts the Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods For Special Dietary Use, and is leading the charge to railroad our dietary supplement laws into international harmonization.
Another Codex goal is to supposedly protect consumers. Unfortunately, the reverse has proven true. Codex is actually protecting the profit interests of the multinational corporations at the expense of the consumer. In fact, the large multinationals are dominating the U.N. Codex process. Furthermore, it's "one country, one vote" so even the tiniest
country that doesn't manufacture dietary supplements, has as much decision making input in the voting process as the much larger countries.
In essence, Codex was designed to be a stepping-stone to harmonize all member countries to international law - is that correct?
Exactly! But they didn't have any teeth until the advent of the Uruguay round of GATT (Global Agreement on Tariffs and Trade), which created the World Trade Organization (WTO). Until WTO was formed, GATT did not have any control mechanism to force a country to adopt an international standard. It was strictly voluntary up to that point. After the advent of the WTO it became mandatory that these countries adopt these
international standards as their own. And the only legal option a country had to refuse to adopt a Codex vitamin standard for its own law was on the basis of safety [SPS Agreement]. The problem for the U.S. is that all alleged violations will be adjudicated in a new international court outside of the U.S. created by the World Trade Organization. In my opinion,
this court "known as the Dispute Settlement Body" is nothing more than a "Mickey Mouse" court. It's a rigged court that doesn't follow our rules of evidence. It is rigged to uphold the greed-driven interests of the multinational corporations. The court is made up of people from different countries and it makes its rulings in secret. The public doesn't have access to its deliberations. You and I, for example, can't just walk
into a courtroom presided over by the Dispute Settlement Body of the WTO. We can't watch their proceedings. Private citizen have no standing to appear before that court no matter how well qualified they are. In theory, a private citizen could appear before the court but only if both conflicting parties agreed to allow it. That has never happened. For the most part the only people with standing to appear before the court are representatives of WTO member nations.
How did you originally get to be a delegate on the Codex committee?
Anybody that wanted to be an observer could simply apply to be on the U.S. delegation. All they had to do was go to a meeting the FDA held in Washington, D.C. prior to the meeting in Germany to be eligible. I went to that meeting in D.C. and applied to be an observer on the delegation because I was willing and able to pay my own way. That's the only reason why the grassroots even had anyone on that delegation. The powerful multinationals don't like to make it easy for the public to know what's
going on. They hold meetings that can impact people all over the world far away from where anyone can see what's happening.
How does what's happening with the EU Food Supplements Directive tie in with Codex?
Fair question. The European Union currently has fifteen countries within it. It's going to expand by ten new countries in 2004 to include twenty-five countries. All of these countries are members of the U.N. Codex Alimentarius Commission and they can all send people to this meeting of the Committee on Nutrition that is in the process of developing what
threatens to be a very draconian vitamin standard. The problem is that unless we overturn this Food Supplements Directive in court, all twenty-five of these countries are going to go into Codex and they'll have the power to force a really restrictive vitamin standard through at Codex because they'll all be walking in lock-step with Germany. Germany is the world's biggest pharmaceutical producing country. They're the biggest
opponent of dietary supplements of any country in the world. That's why they became the host committee for the Codex Committee on Nutrition because they have a real vested interest here in railroading us.
So if I understand you correctly, the EU, with Germany's influence, is going to have the leverage to force Codex to adopt their stringent standards, which will then become the worldwide standards for dietary supplements?
That's exactly right. The European Union is the blueprint by which our would-be rulers intend to form a global totalitarian state. What they're doing with the EU is their first little Science project. They're trying to do similar regional trading blocks all over the world. In our little hemisphere they're trying to create something similar to the EU called the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) through which they're
trying to harmonize the laws between Canada, the U.S., Mexico, and Central and South America. When they held a summit meeting of the FTAA in Quebec City in 2001, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police put a ten square kilometer chain link fence around the area of Quebec City where the summit meeting was to take place. The intent was to keep demonstrators out because they saw what had happened in Seattle at the anti WTO demonstrations in 1999 and they were worried that something like that might
happen in Quebec City so they took that as a security measure and also rimmed their fence with over 2,000 riot gear police. Demonstrators were able to breach this fence and rip it down and there was a clash between police and demonstrators where a lot of tear gas and hard plastic bullets filled the air. One demonstrator got hit in the trachea and he'll never
be able to talk again. So we are at war. People need to wake up and pull their heads out of the sand and recognize what's going on in the world.
Can you tell us about some of the covert tactics being used to set our industry up for harmonization?
First of all I should explain that there's an entity called the Dietary Supplement Working Group of the Trans Atlantic Business Dialogue also known as TABD. Their website is www.tabd.org. TABD is a U.N. NGO group.
NGO means Non Government Organization. What TABD is doing encompasses many different working groups from many different industries, not just the dietary supplement industry, that are having dialogues on both sides of the Atlantic with key trade officials and they're trying to get the laws harmonized. There's a dietary supplement working group of TABD which is comprised mostly of pharmaceutical interests that is attempting
to harmonize American vitamin laws to the European Union. They're not trying to harmonize the European Union to our laws.
There are a lot of reasons for this but one of them is that they just want one set of labeling and one set of rules, not two sets of rules. One set of rules for the planet regardless of whether or not this is in the best interest of consumers. In other words, you've got to realize that the way WTO operates is when their Dispute Settlement Body makes a ruling, they ignore all the intangibles that go into the making up of a
democratic nation's laws. Every single ruling that the WTO's Dispute Settlement Body has made has gone against the environment, against the public health, against consumer rights, against labor rights, and against human rights. They're trying to move the seat of power for the whole world to Brussels and New York where the United Nations is. And then the
national governments of the world nations would be pretty much
figureheads. In other words, we really couldn't look to them any more because they're being usurped. Power is going away from our immediate areas andit's being centralized in Brussels. It's getting to a situation similar to that which the colonists of this country had when we had the revolution against England. We broke free of England because we wanted to govern ourselves right here. Right where we live. Not be governed by people
across the ocean. We have a similar situation now where people over in Brussels want to tell us what to do. Well I'm sorry, I'm not going to let anybody over in Brussels tell me anything. Nobody in America should let anybody in Brussels tell them what to do. We must send donations to ANH for their lawsuit to overturn the EU Food Supplements Directive because it threatens to impact us via CODEX.
Are there other Directives besides the Food Supplements Directive that we need to be concerned about?
Yes. If a really restrictive Codex vitamin standard is created, there are two other Directives in Europe waiting in the wings that are working their way through the European Parliament that also have to be stopped.
What are those Directives and what would their implications be?
One is the EU Traditional Herbal Medicinal Products Directive and the other is the EU Pharmaceuticals Directive. Both are described in detail at http://www.alliance-natural-health.org The Traditional Herbal
Medicinal Directive attacks herbs and the Pharmaceuticals Directive attacks anything that has any physiological effect on the body. In other words, anything that manages to make it through the other two Directives gets stepped on by the third Directive which is the heavyweight. The third Directive is the 10,000-pound gorilla. It trumps everything. It makes
water a drug.
So even though there's lobbying efforts against the Food Supplements Directive right now, these other two Directives may be even worse?
That#146;s right. But we won't have a chance of stopping them if we don#146;t first overturn the Food Supplements Directive in court.
What#146;s really amazing is that most people in our industry know very little, if any, about these issues. Ever since the Dietary Supplement Health & Education Act (DSHEA) passed in 1994 that governs our industry, they assume our vitamin laws are safe and that international laws somehow won#146;t impact us.
Well they don#146;t understand what's going on. They don't understand that there have been instances already where we have been forced to harmonize our laws. See http://www.citizen.org/trade/ See the book WTO:
Whose Trade Organization? By Lori Wallach, JD. Also see the article U.S. Congress Bows to WTO Mandate - Our National Sovereignty is Violated by Congressman Ron Paul
http://www.thelibertycommittee.org/uscongressbows.htm. Also see letter from Congressman Ron Paul and Peter De Fazio to Congressman Burton pleading for a solid oversight hearing on the Codex vitamin issue in light of my findings (see page 15). Due to pharmaceutical pressure the hearing was whitewashed, and we have been set up to lose in a WTO Trade Dispute by the FDA.
Let's say this Directive can't be stopped and a restrictive vitamin standard is passed at Codex. Who would act as the enforcement arm to mandate that the U.S. abide by these trade laws - the FDA?
The FDA is more than willing to comply with international law and enforce Codex so in answer to your question, yes, the FDA would ultimately be used as the enforcement arm. What would happen is if we went before the WTO court, the only legal means by which we could defend our domestic law is on a basis of safety. However, the FDA has been taking steps to ensure we lose a WTO trade dispute and the way they've been taking
those steps is by generating false definitions of vitamin safety. In other words, under the SPS agreement, the Sanitary Phyto Sanitary measures agreement, the only way you can defend your domestic law from harmonization is on the basis of safety. Well, we'd have no problem doing that if the matter were under review in a U.S. court where we could bring any expert witness that we wanted to testify, including private citizens
like Linus Pauling if he were still alive for example - people of that caliber. But the problem is, no private citizens have standing to appearbefore the WTO's Dispute Settlement Body.
A major breakthrough occurred recently in Germany at the latest round of Codex meetings. Industry leaders are hailing this as some kind of progress but to me, it seems like bargaining with the devil. It deals with "Safe Upper Limits" of nutritional supplements and this was allowed to advance at Codex. I'm hearing reports that this will now put Codex on a
fast track to completion which could happen some time in the next year or so. What can you tell us about this?
The Codex meeting where the vitamin agenda item "advanced" just
occurred from November 3-7 in Bonn. IAHF did not attend, having been permanently banned from attending Codex meetings. Vitamin consumers worldwide were burned at this year's meeting of the U.N. Codex Alimentarius Commission's Committee on Nutrition and Foods For Special Dietary Use where the agenda item on vitamins and minerals, which had been blocked from moving for 8 years, just advanced from Step 3 to the pivotal Step 5. Codex
Rules allow for implementation at Step 6 if there is unanimous
agreement on an agenda item, otherwise, it can take as many as 8 steps to win approval.
What's most distressing to me about this situation is that misleading reports have been sent out by Simon Petman of controlled opposition group IADSA (International Alliance of Dietary Supplements Association), by CRN (Council for Responsible Nutrition), and by others, who would have
us all believe that a "victory" for vitamin consumers was achieved at this year's meeting because a move to impose RDA potency levels was scrapped in favor of using less draconian, but equally unscientific "Safe Upper Levels" as determined by supposedly "scientific" risk assessment.
Unfortunately, all we've just seen unfold was a classic "bait and switch"' con game - a perfect illustration of the Hegelian Dialectic: Thesis + Antithesis = Synthesis. That is, FIRST, the Cartel creates the problem (threat of restricting things to RDA levels), in order to create a desired public reaction (FEAR), THEN the Cartel ushers in an alleged "Solution" to this problem by conning people into getting behind supposed "Safe Upper Levels" (e.g. 35 mg on niacin). It wasn't legal for Dr.
Beth Yetley of the FDA to put the biased, pharmaceutically funded paper "A Risk Assessment Model for Establishing Safe Upper Levels for Nutrients" on the table at Codex in 1998, but she did so anyway knowing that the Pharma Spin Machine has the power to rig any Congressional Oversight hearing at which her illegal actions might be exposed. Although she was
told by several members of Congress not to put this paper on the table at Codex [See their letters at http://www.iahf.com under "Letters from Congress"], she did so anyway, and on March 20, 2001, an Oversight Hearing on Codex where this crime could have been exposed was whitewashed. I wasn#146;t allowed to testify, and neither were any of my witnesses including Richard Malter, PhD, whose scholarly rebuttal to the National
Academy of Sciences "Risk Assessment" paper was published in the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine, Second Quarter 2000, Volume 15, Number 2. [See it along with the NAS paper which openly states that it was funded by pharmaceutical interests at http://www.iahf.com under NAS Paper and Rebuttal]
Paul Taylor, a tireless health freedom fighter from the UK has provided us with a very well written report from the Codex meeting which concluded recently in Bonn, Germany. Here's a short excerpt summary of what he believes to still be a dangerous threat worldwide to all health freedom
advocates.
"The growing similarities, and others, between the text of the EU Food Supplements Directive and the Codex Draft Guidelines for Vitamin and Mineral Supplements are no coincidence. Basil Mathioudakis (the EC Observer), who drafted the text of the EU Food Supplements Directive, will now be representing 25 EU countries at the next Codex meeting in Bonn in November 2004. Clearly the long-held fear that the EU will eventually
win the vote at Codex over the vitamin and mineral issue through being able to outvote all of the other countries could soon become a reality. This therefore raises the grim possibility that discussions regarding the Codex Draft Guidelines for Vitamin and Mineral Supplements could even be concluded at next year#146;s meeting. This eventuality could have grave implications for the legal challenge to the EU Food Supplements
Directive because if the Codex Guidelines were finalized before the legal challenge is complete, the UK lawyers would in essence be arguing fornaught.
In summary then, Codex is the trump card. Even if the legal challenge to the Food Supplements Directive is successful, the Codex proposals could still be implemented globally, effectively overruling any short-term victory for health freedom in Europe. Proof of this comes from recent research by the American Holistic Health Association, which confirms that implementation of the Codex Guidelines for Vitamin and Mineral Food
Supplements is not optional. See http://www.ahha.org/AHHAcomments2003.htm Clearly then, the next couple of years are going to be crucial ones for the future of natural healthcare and freedom of choice."
That's pretty alarming John. In my opinion, instead of trying to
cooperate with Codex, we should be working as an industry to completely disband from Codex and all these international organizations and trade agreements. None of these international laws will benefit us here in the U.S. no matter how hard we try and massage them to our liking. If I understand the seriousness of what you're saying, we must, as an industry, get behind the lawsuit that the Alliance For Natural Health has filed in
order to overturn the whole EU Directive to block what could turn out to be something terrible for our industry when Codex finalizes its laws?
Yes. We have Anderson, the best lawyer in England handling the case. This guy has made over seventy appearances before the European court of Justice, which is their equivalent to our Supreme Court. This guy is the first one to ever successfully have a European Directive overturned. He studied this case very carefully before agreeing to take it on because he wants to build on the case law he's already established to win. He
wants to win badly. He wouldn't have agreed to take on the case if he didn't think he could win. He's an excellent attorney, one of the best in the world and we've got to go through with this. It's our only shot.
What kind of support is the Alliance For Natural Health getting from citizens throughout Europe and the rest of the world?
They're able to get donations over a secure form on their website. Donations are trickling in but they are still working to get more resources that are needed.
When America's supplement industry was under attack back in the early 1990s, millions of people rose up and wrote Congress and demanded that they continue to have free access to dietary supplements. Are you seeing this kind of protest happening in Europe as well?
The letter writing campaign behind DSHEA was the largest volume of mail ever received on a single issue by the U.S. Congress in its history. They received more mail in a campaign to pass DSHEA than they did for the Vietnam War.
I have to imagine that this is going on in Europe as well?
We sent enough email to crash the server on the day of the vote on the EU Food Supplements Directive. This was done via Dr. Matthias Rath's website. The EU labeled Rath a "terrorist" for facilitating this email blitz, and he was removed from the EU Parliament Building by armed guards who would not allow him to speak. The European Union is a dictatorship controlled by multinational corporate interests. The members of the
European Parliament really don't have any power. The European Parliament is just window dressing. The only people that really have power are the European Commission. They're not even elected, they're appointed.
Who is putting these people in power?
The drug companies and other multinational corporate interests that dominate the European Commission who really make the laws. The European Parliament is just a facade to appease the people to make them think that they have a democratic government, but it's really a joke. It's the most corrupt, treacherously dictatorial regime on the face of the earth - bar none.
I hesitate to make the comparison because of the negative connotations but what's happening in Europe sounds to me like the revival of the Nazi Empire, only this time they are seeking to suck the whole world into this web, including the United States.
It's interesting that you say that because there's a guy named Phillip Day who would totally agree with you. Phillip Day is an Englishman who wrote a book called Ten Minutes To Midnight that I mentioned in my article Ripping Up The Railroad Tracks To Auschwitz, which can be found on my website at www.iahf.com [see Emergency Alert]. On the cover of Day's book it shows Big Ben, the famous clock in London, with the British flag super imposed on the clock face with ten minutes of the flag remaining as the clock ticks towards midnight. This book is about the imminent
destruction of England as a nation as it gets plunged into darkness and gets subsumed by the Nazi entity called the European Union. In the book he documents the Nazi origins of the European Union and he documents how after losing WWII the Nazi's set the stage for regaining power in Europe. They in fact set the stage for the creation of the European Union and all this is thoroughly discussed in his book. After I reviewed Day's
book I find it to be unimpeachable. There's no controversy about the fact that the European Union is a Nazi entity. Hitler's rise to power was fueled by I.G. Farben. They ran the concentration camps and fueled his war machine. They were under-written by American corporate interests and after the war through Project Paperclip many of Germany's top Nazi's were brought here to America for work. So WWII never ended, that's just an illusion.
We've been witnessing in our lifetime, especially in the last ten or so years, this global beast really taking root with such things as NAFTA, GATT, WTO, FTAA, IMF, World Bank, World Court, and other international organizations and trade agreements coming to fruition.
You have to look at the Hegelian Dialectic and what it really means. The Hegelian Dialectic is thesis plus antithesis, which eventually leads to synthesis. What this refers to is Problem - Reaction - Solution where you have these would be rulers trying to form a global totalitarian state. The way they're doing it is that they're tricking us in the way that they want us to move where first they'll create a problem in order to trigger a desired public reaction, such as fear, and then they
propose the alleged solution which they've already thought out in advance that moves the gullible sheep towards the cliff. They've consistently used this careful bate and switch tactic for centuries. They've been behind all the world's wars where they've controlled both sides and they control the outcome. And it's desirous for them to trigger wars. They started the first world war to try to get us into the League of Nations.
Congress didn't go for that because they realized the League of Nations was unconstitutional. So the globalists set the stage for a second world war by not doing anything to re-build post war Germany in the aftermath. They set the stage for Hitler's rise to power in order to trigger a second world war because they needed a second world war to get us into this League of Nations, which by then was re-named the United Nations.
They needed a pretext to get us into that. They used similar bate and switch tactics to get us into the WTO as well. Neither one can be trusted.
Since the war in Iraq began some of our elected officials are saying the U.S. should get out of the U.N. With all of these international trade agreements in place do you honestly see that ever happening?
No. It would be nice if we could. Congressman Ron Paul has a Bill right now that would get us out of the U.N., HR 1146 The American Sovereignty Restoration Act, but that doesn't have any appreciable movement at this time [15 cosponsors- all members of the Liberty Caucus
http://www.thelibertycommittee.org]. He's at least trying. He tried to get House Joint Resolution 90 through a few years ago that could have removed us from the WTO. He had only roughly forty or so supporters for that. There at least is a movement to a degree to get us out of these world bodies, which we should do because it's to nobody's advantage to get us into a situation like exists in the European Union. I've talked to people in England and other countries over there who are totally
disillusioned and feel they have no ability to shape their destiny because Brussels is so hard to get to. The only country from which people can relatively afford to get to Brussels is from France but from anywhere else in Europe it's as expensive as it is to fly from London to New York. The fact that
England has not joined the economic union yet shows that there's still
some hope for rebellion. As long as England has the pound at least they have some autonomy. The moment they go in for monetary union and embrace the Euro that's when they're done for completely. They#146;re almost done for now, that's why Phillip's book is titled Ten Minutes To Midnight.
That's why I think the EU Food Supplements Directive and what's
happening with Codex is so critically important. If Europe can ram rod this draconian legislation down all the EU member nations it's only a matter of time before this ripple effect hits here in America. Without free access to dietary supplements our health will be entirely in the hands of the globalists.
