Treat your cold with vitamin C without prescription
Absolutely! Welcome to the most extreme attempt to control the sale and use of dietary supplements ever seen. This past December, the FDA put a document on its web site titled “Draft Guidance for Industry on Complementary and Alternative Medicine Products and Their Regulation by the Food and Drug Administration.” This document is open to public comments until April 30, 2007 - just a few days from now.
More money to the drug companies, doctors and high earners.
What will this act destroy?
The freedom to take care of one’s health by having easy access to remedies that have been safely used for hundreds of years for minor complaints and ailments.
Who will suffer from this act the most?
Low income families and elders who do not have the luxury of health care and depend on accessibility to proven healing modalities.
Who is the FDA working for?
You decide…
- Do we already have a health care system that is unaffordable and becoming a major social problem for the US?
- Do we need to compound the injury by adding more regulations and restrictions?
- Do we want to enslave people even more to be part of the failing medical system?
Or
- Do we stop the course of dependency?
- Do we stop meddling in areas where the public can be self sufficient and take charge of their own lives if left alone?
- Do we empower our people or do we give power to a select few, who are already lining their pockets?
Modern medicine is still in its infancy compared to the history of the human race. Who needs complementary and alternative medicine to be regulated? The drug company, the doctors and the health care system do, not the people. What the people need, is easy access to complementary and alternative medicine products. So that they can keep taking care of themselves as they have for hundreds of years. Keep big business and government out of self care. Stop meddling and interfering in the health aspects that work and focus instead on regulating the outrageous price margins that the Pharma industry puts on its drugs. Keep medicine affordable and accessible at all cost to avoid a complete collapse of the health care system once and for all.

Time to act!

If left undone, supplements might become so tightly regulated that you would have to get a doctor’s prescription to use them.
Of all the times to raise our voices, none is more important than this time.
