Nutritional Supplement Restrictions Coming?

[Guest guest]

Codex Alimentarius

(Food Code)

Is this a threat to our continued access

to nutritional supplements in the U.S.?

Have you heard about Codex, but have no idea what it is or why you should

even care?

Codex Alimentarius is creating dozens of international trade standards. One

of the most controversial documents is entitled CODEX PROPOSED DRAFT

GUIDELINES FOR VITAMIN AND MINERAL SUPPLEMENTS

<http://ahha.org/CodexGuidelines.htm> . Will this become a valuable data

source for nutritional supplement information or a set of international

restrictions with enough clout to empty the shelves of health food stores?

This site is an attempt to simplify this very complex issue. Here you will

find a wide variety of resources covering many points of view, plus a lot of

questions that need answers.

American Holistic Health Association's normal practice is to link you to

existing Internet sites presenting important health-related resources and

data. In the case of Codex we found sources very polarized and incomplete in

presenting the whole situation. Therefore, we break with tradition and have

created our own " Codex Information Site " at codexinfo.org.

AHHA encourages you to use this information to do your own research, decide

which position you wish to support, and take action!
