Guest guest Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Hello, Take a look at these pages. The Government is taking aim at the supplement industry again and this time the seem to mean business. If they succeed we will lose the natural materials and how much further can the other goodies we are using to sustain ourselves with be behind them? Please write congress and oppose the new bill. I have written my representatives. I am looking for other groups where I can post this message. Please repeat this warning and urge anyone or group you know of that use supplements to petition congress to preserve our ability to economically access these gifts from God. Don't let them slip this one by under the radar, as they are currently attempting to do. http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig5/schroder5.html http://www.puritan.com/house/actionalert.asp?xs=4751FC7310674E0B860F1F730E9AC575\ & sc=0 & edid= http://capwiz.com/nnfa/issues/alert/?alertid=4089036 If you live in New York might I suggest that you please write Ms. clinton some hate mail (election wise) in the hopes she will feel the threat to her re-election prospects if she proceeds as one of the prime movers of this bill which she is at the present time. Everyone, PLEASE let your representatives know that we will hold them accountable if they support such sneaky activity. Be aware that the AMA and drug industry are powerful lobbies and this is in their interest so we must act now to protect our access. There was an issue of JAMA entirely dedicated to supplements 3-5 years ago where they lamented that supplements were the number two form of self paid, elective medicine in America. They even admitted in that article that many of the natural, (and therefore, UN-PATENT-ABLE) materials WORK BETTER OR AS WELL AS AND ARE SAFER THAN PRESCRIPTION DRUGS. They seemed to perceive that as an even greater threat with several suggestions on how to suppress vitamins and herbal materials in the public sector. They proposed to lobby congress to do exactly this type of move in that article to deny us access to them and drive that business to the traditional medical community and prescription drugs. Please don't let them get away with it. Thank you for your time and PLEASE HELP! Mark (grgeek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
