Action Item--Your Right to Choose your Vitamin,Mineral and Other Supplements may

End in June of This Year 2005

Read this Very important health message below and contact everyone.

Your right to choose your vitamin, mineral and other supplements may end in June

of this year (2005). After that U.S. supplements will be defined and controlled

by the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

The CODEX ALIMENTARIUS (Food Code) is setting the supplement standards for all

countries in the WTO. They will be enforced by the WTO and will over ride U.S.

laws.

The U.S. President and congress agreed to this take-over when the WTO Treaty was

signed. Violations are punished by WTO trade sanctions. CODEX drastically

restricts

vitamins, minerals, herbs and other supplements. CODEX met secretly in November,

2004 and finalized " Step 8 (the final stage) " to begin implementation in June,

2005.

The CODE includes:

(1) No supplement can be sold for preventive or therapeutic use.

(2) Any potency higher than RDA (minimal strength) is a " drug " requiring a

prescription and must be produced by drug companies. Over 5000 safe items now in

health stores will be banned, terminating health stores as we now know them.

(3) CODEX regulations become binding internationally.

(4) New supplements are banned unless given very expensive CODEX testing and

approval.

CODEX now applies to Norway and Germany, among others, where zinc tablets rose

from $4 per bottle to $52. Echinacea (an ancient immune-enhancement herb) rose

from $14 to $153 (both examples are now allowed by prescription only). They are

now " drugs " . Vitamin C above 200 mg, niacin above 32 mg, vitamin B6 above 4

mg-all are banned over-the-counter as drugs. No amino acids (arginine, lysine,

carnitine, etc. essential amino acids!), essential fatty acids (omegas 3, 6, 9,

etc.), or other essential supplements such as DMEA, DHEA, CoQ10, MSM,

beta-carotene, etc. are allowed.

The CODEX rules are not based on real science. They are made by a few people

meeting in secret (see web sites below), not necessarily scientists. In 1993 the

FDA and drug corporations tried to put all supplements under restriction and

prescription. But over 4 million Americans told Congress and the President to

protect their freedom of choice on health supplements. The DSHEA Law was passed

in 1994,which does so. But this will be over ruled by CODEX and the World Trade

Organization.

Virtually nothing about it has been in the media. What the drug corporations

have

failed to do through Congress they have gotten by sneak attack through CODEX

with the help of a silent media. What can be done at this late hour?

(1) Spread the word as much as possible. Inform yourselves fully at

www.ahha.org, www.iahf.com, and www.alliance-natural-health.org.

(2) Oppose bills S.722 and H.R.3377. These support the CODEX restrictions with

U.S. laws, changing the DSHEA law.

(3) Support H. R.1146 which would restore the sovereignty of the U.S.

Constitution over

CODEX, etc.

(4) Express your wishes to the President, Senators and Representatives

(They got us into this!) ASAP.

(5) Contact multi-level health marketing groups that can get their members to

inform the government.

(6) Send donations, however small, to the British Alliance for Natural Health

(see web

site above). It has succeeded in challenging the CODEX directives in World Court

later

this month or next. They need help financially, having carried the fight

effectively for everyone. CODEX and the FDA wish to protect us by controlling

supplements in the same way they do prescription drugs. A study of the latter by

three medical scientists was reported in the Journal of the American Medical

Association, April 15, 1998-Vol.279, No. 15, p. 1200 " .Incidence of Adverse Drug

Reactions (ADR's) was found to

be extremely high. " Covering 30 years (1966 to 1996) it was found that in the

U.S. an

average of 106,000 hospitalized patients per year (290 per day) die from ADR's

and

2,200,000 need more hospitalization for

recovery. These were FDA approved drugs, properly administered by competent

professionals in hospitals--none were considered malpractice. This is the number

four cause of death in the U.S. When combined, these account for 7% ofall

hospitalized patients. This is equivalent to a 9-11 attack every ten days. There

are very few fatalities from supplements or the news would be on every front

page. There is no need for more FDA control of supplements than is already in

place, which is substantial. Instead of drastically restricting supplements, why

doesn't the FDA better control and restrict the extremely dangerous

pharmaceutical drugs which are now killing us at the rate of a major airline

crash per day?

VITAMIN CONSUMERS BEWARE!

Your Freedom of Choice is on the Brink of Extinction

AN INTERVIEW WITH JOHN HAMMELL

Founder, International Advocates for Health Freedom (IAHF)

Hammell is an internationally renowned advocate for health freedom. In this

interview, he will expose the current draconian international effort,

masterminded

by the pharmaceutical cartel, to restrict our freedom of choice of dietary

supplements and vitamins.

The centerpiece of this effort is called CODEX, which is a United Nations

program

to impose global trade standards in this area. The European Union (EU) is the

most

influential power block in the CODEX scheme, and the most pressing issue right

now

is the Food Supplements Directive passed by the EU, which is being challenged in

a

British Court on January 25 by the Alliance for Natural Health (ANH). If this

domino

falls, America is not far behind.

We cannot stress enough the URGENCY of this matter! Our inherent right to

choose what natural substances we put into our bodies is at stake. Don't miss

this

Tele-seminar! IAHF and ANH also need your help right away. Go to www.iahf.com
