Allow health/science claims for foods and supplements

March 13, 2009

Did you know that the FDA currently outlaws any reference to a scientific

study relating to the health effects of a food or food supplement by any seller

of that food and food supplement? This censoring of science inhibits food

and food supplement producers from informing the public about the real value of

their products. It also inhibits consumers from making fully informed

decisions about their health.

That is why AAHF has drafted the 'Free Speech About Science Act', to end the

FDA's censorship of scientific information. We need your help in securing a

Congressional sponsor for this legislation, which is why we are asking you

to sign a petition in support of the 'Free Speech About Science Act'.

Collecting these petitions will allow us to gain early support so that when we

ask

members of Congress to sponsor this legislation, we will be able to point to

the number of their constituents who already support this Bill.

We are seeking early support for this legislation from the residents of

these states are highly

influential because their state either has a high number of fruit producers, a

high

number of food supplement companies, and/or their congressperson sits on a

key committee.

If you would like to sign our Petition, please click on your state in the

list above.
