First-round win against Codex

A lawsuit brought by the Alliance of Natural Health (ANH) contesting the

supplements began in the High Courts of Justice in London, 2004. The

case was referred to the European Courts of Justice in Luxembourg,

where, more than a year later, the Advocate General and senior advisor

to all the European Court judges, ruled in favour of the ANH.
