Consumers World Wide Close Ranks Against IADSA/ Val Johanson/ Randy

Dennin/ and the Pharma Cartel--

Countries

 

IAHF List:

 

Globally we're observing pharmaceutical interests getting control of vitamin

trade associations. Nowhere has this been more glaringly apparent than IADSA

(International Alliance of Dietary Supplement Associations) http://www.iadsa.org

See a full expose on IADSA at http://www.iahf.com/iadsa

 

Val Johanson of CHC and IADSA- A Treacherous Cartel Plant

 

Val Johanson, Exec Dir of the Complementary Healthcare Council (CHC) in

Australia established and headed the TGA's (Australian FDA's) Surveillance Unit

for four years

http://norsearch.scu.edu.au/conferences/nat_safe/conf_speakers.html

 

As a biochemist and research officer with Kanemtsu Institute at Sydney Hospital

she undertook research in new drugs for kidney disease and obesity. Now she's

doing everything humanly possible to suppress consumer access to safe dietary

supplement alternatives to these sorts of prescription drugs.

 

By running CHC, and through her involvement with IADSA has Johanson " turned over

a new leaf " and suddenly turned her back on her former pharmaceutical masters?

NOT ON YOUR LIFE!!

 

From her position at CHC and also from within IADSA, Johanson has been in the

forefront of a treacherous global pharmaceutical attack against consumer's

access to dietary supplements, but resistance to her tyrannical efforts is

mounting world wide, paralleling her and IADSA Chairmain Randy Dennin's exposure

as pharma plants inside the dietary supplement industry.

 

From her post in CHC, Johanson has done NOTHING to protest the corrupt banning

of 1600 totally safe dietary supplements by the corrupt Australian government

via the Pan Recall. Indeed, all her actions have gone towards trying to DESTROY

the dietary supplement industry, while only going through the motions of

" protecting " it.

 

NEW ZEALAND REBELLION AGAINST AUSTRALIAN HARMONIZATION- JOHANSON/ IADSA/ and the

PHARMA CARTEL

 

Although a Trans Tasman Treaty to harmonize dietary supplement regulations was

illegally signed by New Zealand Health Minister Annette King to harmonize New

Zealand's liberal food based dietary supplement regulations with Australia's

mindless pharmaceuticlized regulations, opposition parties in New Zealand have

rebuffed Johanson's (and Dennin's and King's) treachery by refusing to pass

implementing legislation which would give this Treaty the force of law inside

New Zealand: see

" Pro-Supplement MPs May Block Trans-Tasman Regulatory Plan "

http://www.naturalproductsinsider.com/hotnews/3ch1173540.html

 

Prior to this, NNFA of New Zealand exposed IADSA as a controlled opposition

group. NNFA New Zealand sent this letter to IADSA

http://www.iahf.com/iadsa/nnfa_iadsa_letter.html In it, NNFA New Zealand

presented a list of grievances, all of which expose the true agenda of Val

Johanson and Randy Dennin.

 

CANADIAN REBELLION AGAINST AUSTRALIAN HARMONIZATION

 

The Canadian people have rebelled against the corrupt CHFA (Canadian Health Food

Association) because it is doing nothing to protect them from harmonization to

Australian law. On June 18th, 2003 in complete violation of the Canadian Charter

of Rights and Freedoms Health Canada gazetted new regulations which harmonized

Canada to Australia.

 

CHFA has done nothing to protest these illegal regulations- indeed, the corrupt

trade association has EMBRACED the mindless dictates which threaten to drown the

industry under an avalanche of red tape.

 

The Canadian Alliance of Health Retailers

http://www.canadianallianceofhealthretailers.ca/ has been formed in direct

opposition to CHFA, IADSA, and to harmonization with Australia. CAHR's President

is Croft Woodruff, a past President of CHFA who can document the pharma takeover

of CHFA.

 

CAHR is calling global attention to the following legal actions against Health

Canada

IADSA ATTEMPTS TO HARMONIZE SOUTH AMERICA TO AUSTRALIA/ CANADA

Having trained their big guns on New Zealand, Canada, and the EU, IADSA is also

trying to

bring about the harmonization of dietary supplement laws throughout South

America

and held a huge conference there October 8-9 2003

http://www.iadsa.org/data/PDF/INFPDF18.PDF

 

Working through IADSA- the Cartel is attempting to isolate the USA in the world

and take us last via harmonization.

The vitamin trade associations comprising IADSA are not being told the truth

about any of this, and members of

these trade associations aren't examining the issues for themselves. Due to

this, the entire supplement industry

is being artfully led to the cliff.

 

Busy vitamin company CEOs and health food store owners are being told " what they

want to hear " by such controlled opposition groups

as IADSA members NNFA in the USA and CHFA in Canada. They're being told that

Codex poses " no threat " to any nations domestic laws,

and that " we and IADSA are handling things. "

 

They're " handling things " all right- they're " handling things " for Bayer, BASF,

Pfizer, Monsanto, and the rest of the Pharma Cartel....

Nowhere is this more glaringly apparent than with IADSA and also with CRN

(Council for Responsible Nutrition) which announced

that Bayer, BASF, Pfizer, Monsanto and the other drug companies dominating CRN

have achieved a VICTORY at Codex:CODEX COMMITTEE BACKS SCIENCE BASED SAFETY

STANDARDS FOR VITAMINS AND MINERALS- BREAKS EIGHT YEAR STALEMATE

http://www.crnusa.org/shellnr110403.html

 

This declaration of " victory " is a textbook example of the Hegelian Dialectic

used against the dietary supplement industry.

CRN's intention with this press release was to put their supplement industry

members including multilevel companies such as Mannatech, GNLD, Shaklee, and

Herbalife to sleep so that they won't do what is needed to fight back--- such as

supporting the ANH lawsuit to overturn the EU Food Supplement Directive.

 

CRN has told its vitamin company members that its " not necessary " to support

ANH's lawsuit. What the supplement company membership of CRN doesn't understand

is that there is nothing the least bit " scientific " about the " SUL " s (Safe Upper

Levels) being imposed on potency levels at Codex. All of this is exposed in the

most recent issue of the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine- especially in the

editorial by Abram Hoffer,MD and via the article by Alan Gaby MD titled " Safe

Upper Limits " for Nutritional Supplements- One Giant Step Backward

http://www.orthomed.org/jom/jom.htm

 

IADSA ATTEMPTED TO RAILROAD ANH AT EXPO EAST

 

At the Expo East vitamin trade show in Washington DC in September 2003, ANH rep

Maury Silverman was thrown out of a meeting of the Joint International Committee

of NNFA and AHPA by Randy Dennin, " former " employee of Pfizer pharmaceutical

company and Chair of IADSA.

 

In an effort to cover his tracks prior to Expo East, Dennin announced his

" retirement " from Pfizer in the September issue of Functional Foods and

Nutraceuticals.

 

Also in an apparent effort to cover his tracks at Expo East, someone had the

IADSA Exposed website which used to be at http://iadsa-exposed.tripod.com

removed from cyberspace. (The information has since been restored at

http://www.iahf.com/iadsa and via several mirror sites)

 

Dennin threw ANH's Silverman out of the Joint International Committee meeting

because he was actively encouraging industry support for the Alliance for

Natural Health's lawsuit, while simultaneously exposing IADSA as a controlled

opposition group by circulating copies of my article about the ANH lawsuit from

the July issue of Life Extension Magazine

http://www.lef.org/magazine/mag2003/2003_preprint_eu_01.html

 

Dennin has " retired " from Pfizer about like Dick Cheney has " retired " from

Haliburton....

 

ANH GOES TO COURT AT END OF JANUARY IN BID TO OVERTURN THE EU FOOD SUPPLEMENT

DIRECTIVE

 

The dietary supplement industry is too corrupt to get behind the ANH lawsuit.

Pharma interests controlling IADSA have managed to keep NNFA and AHPA in the

dark as to the extreme importance of supporting this lawsuit.

CRN has dissuaded its vitamin company members from backing the ANH lawsuit.

 

WHAT IS AT STAKE IF WE DON'T SEND DONATIONS TO ANH FOR THEIR LAWSUIT

 

The EU goes from having observer status to having FULL status at next years

Codex meeting. At the same time, the EU expands from 15 to 25 nations in size.

 

At the same time, Australia, which just yanked 1600 safe products from the

shelves under false pretenses will be bringing a " white paper " on supposed

" scientific risk assessment " and a massive effort will be made to drive a phony

vitamin standard through to completion at step 6 to set the world up for

harm-onization.

 

The FDA is behind CRN- their press releases about what just happened at Codex

clearly illustrate this- so Dr.Yetley of the FDA would have no qualms about

voting in favor of a finalized Codex vitamin standard as things currently stand.

 

On March 16, 2001 the oversight hearing that I pushed for for 5 years on Codex

was whitewashed. FDA has set us up to lose in a future WTO Trade Dispute by

creating false definitions of vitamin safety. CRN and NAS are helping them to

pull a fast one on the American vitamin consuming public- and most people don't

see any of this because they're not familiar with international law. We're being

set up via the SPS Agreement. The only legal basis on which we can defend our

vitamin laws from harmonization to an international standard is safety- so FDA

and NAS (with help from CRN and IADSA) are foisting off phony " safety standards "

on us.

 

ANH is going to court for oral arguments at the end of January in a bid to

overturn the EU's mindless Food Supplement Directive.

ANH recently did emergency lobbying in Strousborg against the Pharmaceuticals

Directive- (which would turn any substance with any physiologic effect in the

body into a " drug "

 

ANH badly needs all of our support right now. Please make a donation at

http://www.alliance-natural-health.org If you have donated already, please

donate some more and urge as many people as you possibly can to also donate.

 

I hope this email helps you " connect the dots " on what is going on world wide to

destroy the dietary supplement industry.

Please forward it widely.
