Guest guest Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 It is more like a naturopathic buyout by big pharma and mainstream medicine and it is much worse than just Canada - it is happening everywhere. They are trying to bring alternative medicine under their umbrella to control it just like they are with supplements. What you can't ban or limit, incorporate and control. And it is not just the licensed doctors and training they receive (or don't receive). By and large, big pharma has infiltrated many of the organizations that are supposed to represent supplement makers and health freedom and are now pushing for more controls over supplements. Which might sound logical if it were not for the virtually zero deaths resulting from supplements versus the hundreds of thousands who die from mainstream drugs every year.Take a look at these articles by Peter Barry Chokwa:Late Summer CAM and Alt Med Conferences: What's Up At the GrassrootsBastyr University's JAMA Article on St. John's Wort: CAM Research Breakthrough or Big Pharma Sell Out?

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Tony, of course you're right. And the scary part is Big Pharma has more than enough money to buy/subvert anything they want to. The only defense is an informed medical consumer -- which you and your associates are trying to create.
