Save Your Right to Take Supplements--Deadline May 29

May 21, 2007

Hi, everybody,

Thanks for allowing me to join and nice to meet all of you!

I was going to write and introduce myself a bit until I came across

something a friend emailed me that I want to pass along--The FDA is

about to make nutritional supplements inaccessible and there are only

8 days left to take action to stop it.

Sincerely,

Adam H.

The FDA is about to promulgate* a rule whereby all natural

supplements and substances, including water in some cases, will

become regulated drugs which you will be able to obtain only by

prescription from an allopathic doctor

(an M. D.) Your right to treat yourself, take what you want when

you want,

to control your own body in this way will be violated.

This is quite an emergency. We need to call our Congresspersons

and Senators

quickly to stop this--and it absolutely has to be stopped. FDA

also has a comment period until May 29; the phone number is

1-800-216-7331.

The case docket number is 2006D-0480; it should be mentioned when

calling.

There is also a comment form at:

http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/oc/dockets/comments/COMMENTSMain.CFM?EC_DO\

CUMENT_ID=1451 & SUBTYP=CONTINUE & CID= & AGENCY=FDA

All individual choice and natural treatment options will be gone

if this rule goes into

effect. The supplement industry that millions depend on for

natural health options

will go out of business almost overnight.

The supplements available then will only be ones made by

pharmaceutical

companies, and will likely be of extremely poor quality.

Phone numbers for your Reps. and Senators and the President are below,

or you can get them at at www.house.gov , www.senate.gov , and

www. whitehouse.gov

Even if the rule goes into effect, Congress can pass a law

overturning it at any time, so it's still very much worth

contacting your

representatives in Washington.

Call YOUR Congressman

Sample letter or email to Congress:

Even if the rule goes into effect, Congress can pass a law

to stop the FDA from doing this, now or ever.

*Promulgation (of executive branch rules): an unconstitutional

process where Congress long ago illegally delegated its lawmaking

power to executive branch agencies, such as the FDA, which issue

regulations having the force of law.

The legislative power was granted to Congress in the Constitution,

not the Executive Branch, which the FDA is a part of. Congress should

make its OWN " comment " to the FDA!

LOL!I do wish that folks would take the time to look back over previous posts and do a search or two before charging in and making a post that has already been covered.I was unaware that the post had been "broadcast", but it did seem to ignore a post of mine that was made only two or three posts prior.I think that the issue of our access to alternative treatments and natural supplements is an important issue, but you are right, it is NOT the main focus of this group. And too many of the posts seem to have perhaps focused on a smokescreen while more important issues and FDA end runs are going on elsewhere.OK, I promise that my next post will be about oleander!: )evitachristanty <evitachristanty wrote: -+Adam , who are you ,you have sent this email to a lot of other groups ,.If you want to join a group you do it for the groups main purpose ,in this case oleander ,,an read the previus posts ,if its just a axe to grind ,piss off , mervyn-- In oleander soup , "Adam Huckins" <oakland_baseball wrote: > > Hi, everybody, > > Thanks for allowing me to join and nice to meet all of you! > I was going to write and introduce myself a bit until I came across > something a friend emailed me that I want to pass along--The FDA is > about to make nutritional supplements
