Health Freedom Alert:

Goverment to Abolish Freedom of Access to Nutritional Supplements

Health Freedom Alliance has been working for years to educate our readers about the benefits of vitamins and natural supplements and just when traditional medicine is starting to recognize the positive healthy effects the government just might take them away. If Arizona Senator John McCain has his way, many of the supplements you rely on for good health will disappear. And the cost of the few you can still get will explode in price.

Earlier this month, Sen. McCain introduced a bill falsely labeled the "Dietary Supplement Safety Act of 2010" (S. 3002). This bill would require every person involved with supplements - all the way down to mom-and-pop health food stores - to register with the FDA. Next, every "dietary supplement facility" must turn over a complete list of the products and ingredients they sell or handle.

It gets worse. Should this bill become law, the state will determine if an ingredient can be sold. You see, under DSHEA passed in 1994, any ingredient sold before the bill passed could be sold legally forever. Well, no more. Under this bill, the FDA will assume any ingredient "adulterated" unless "there is a history of use or other evidence of safety." Manufacturers and distributors must provide the FDA "with information, including any citation to published articles, which is the basis on which the manufacturer or distributor has concluded that a dietary supplement containing such dietary ingredient will reasonably be expected to be safe." And guess who is the ultimate judge and jury? The FDA!

DO NOT ALLOW WHAT HAPPENED IN GERMANY,
to happen in canada/the usa/ or, the rest of the world

it is so important to make your voice - be known/and, to be heard !!!

let your elected representatives-know how you feel about things

most people don't even know where the office of their elected
officals are - and, it is time, to go and visit them !!!

most of their offices are empty ???

shame on all of us !!! esp; those of us, who do NOT visit them
