TCM - Strategy on Protecting Herbal Medicines

[Guest guest]

Volunteers come in all shapes and sizes, with all styles and abilities. Some

need to gripe about what others are doing and have done to provide what they

feel is an enhancement to their own competency and ability, and maybe to get

others to believe and follow them. I am not saying that legal fights can not be

useful, even to us who are not using them. However, I am saying that our legal

representation, whom we respect, has asked us not to do so at this time. All

opinions on this matter are just that, opinions, until we get clarification

from the FDA, from whatever source be it stimulating or irritant.

While I respect all that everyone is doing, I do not respect when people feel

a need to depreciate what others are doing and have done, for whatever

reason.

The people who volunteer for the AAOM are working on this and are have a

focus to get the best possible outcome, which is one we feel is not only

possible,

but likely. There is nothing that says we can't work seperately towards the

same end, together.

 

nfc, please talk more about your injunction. Where it was filed,

docket numbers, etc.

Vice President AAOM
