Alternative Health Freedom

[Guest guest]

Hi Jerry and everyone...

 

Thank you for this post... As you all can tell, issues surrounding

alternative health freedom are near and dear to me... I just came

back from a week in MN celebrating the first meeting of the National

Health Freedom Coalition... It was very exciting to meet and work

with the many brillant legal minds that are working to protect the

consumers access to alternative health practitioners, and those

working to make it possible for the practitioners to work legally

and without fear of harassment and/or prosecution. Right now there

are challenges to be dealt with on a state, federal and

international level...

 

So... Needless to say, there is a lot of work that needs to be

done, and I wish to contribute to the best of my ability... I will

continue to update everyone on pending legislation, as well as

expand further into this cause...

 

I know Jerry is very passionate about this issue... Is there anyone

else here in this forum that is as well? Just nice to know... I am

still turning ideas around in my head as to where to go from here...

 

Thank you for letting me think out loud...

 

ps.- Jerry, I think you are right on... I think S. 1538 is a fake

out... I can't support it either, especially after meeting the

person who wrote and got the Proxmire Bill to pass in 1976, Clinton

Miller. The FDA has everything it needs to remove unsafe

supplements from the shelves, instantly, the catch with the existing

legislation is that they need to PROVE it was unsafe afterwards. In

S. 722 it would make the manufacturers prove it before it was sold.

Can one ever really prove to a hostile, self-motivated organization

that a supplement is safe? This is having the fox watch the hen

house. Look at how well the FDA has protected us from Monsanto,

NutraSweet, Vaccines, Flouride, ect.

 

Be Well,

Misty L. Trepke
