Fw: Codex Alimentarius: Monstrously Toxic Power Play for

Control of the Global Food Supply & the Natural Health Industry

 

 

My good friend Dave Klein has done exhaustive research on the Codex

Alimentarius threat, and it truly is as monstrous as the subject line of

this message implies. Please read and pass on to all your friends; it's not

too late to act. (Codex will be mandatory in the U.S. on Dec. 31, 2009.)

 

Best regards--

Monstrously Toxic Power Play

The Codex Alimentarius agenda, long fermenting in the recesses of closed

board rooms and governmental chambers, is now coming to light. It is the

paramount issue of our times. If Codex standards ever replace U.S. food and

food-supplement laws, it will affect everything—not just Americans' right to

choose supplements, but our right to grow crops with untampered seeds, to

obtain pure organic food from stores and to live free of the tyranny of Big

Agro-Chem-Pharma-Med and health-destructive FDA rules enacted and enforced

by a pro-corporate, anti-health freedom government. For every reason—the

health of yourself, your family, friends, fellow world citizens, all

creatures, future generations and the survival of the Earth—we must exercise

our democratic duty and be vigilant.

 

Please take action now and continue your opposition to Codex via our

legislative channels to prevent the pro-disease industries from seizing the

total power they crave. It's our obligation to tell our Congressional

leaders to stop Codex and promote food and health safety and freedom. At

stake is our right to live healthfully. Remember: it was vehement,

relentless defiance by the founders of our nation which broke the grips of

stifling tyranny and gave us the life we cherish. At this time of mounting

crisis, each of us must expose this clandestine monster and flex our

democratic muscles like never before.

The National Health Federation (NHF) is the only health-freedom organization

with recognized status at Codex Alimentarius meetings, which gives it the

right to speak out and submit comments on all Codex actions. As a case in

point, the NHF was the only delegation at the 2005 Codex Alimentarius

Commission meeting in Rome, Italy to speak out against the adoption of the

ridiculously harsh Vitamin and Mineral Food Supplement Guidelines submitted

to the Commission for approval. Founded more than 52 years ago by an array

of health-freedom activists, the NHF is the oldest health-freedom

organization in the world, and has been following Codex issues for more than

10 years.

 

Codex is not just about nutritional supplements, although that is an

important part. In fact, it is the primary political battlefield where the

war is being waged about who will regulate and control the global food

supply, from field and stable to table. This " war " is being waged by an

increasingly tangled web of global governmental and international

authorities, aligned with big business and financial interests, and, as

such, profit and power are its prime goals—not human health.

 

Although American dietary supplements are currently protected —somewhat—by

the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA), they are

being outflanked by Codex and an interlocking array of emerging regional and

international treaties, agreements, regulatory “handshakes” and other

executive arrangements that will " harmonize " our food laws to harsh European

standards, thereby relegating DSHEA to the dust bin of history and

suppressing our health freedoms...unless we take immediate action.

 

Do we want to see a world where our access to safe, nutritious foods and

effective dietary supplements is restricted, suppressed, and controlled by

government in alliance with its pharmaceutical and chemical partners? If

not, we must act now, before it's too late.

 

Contacting government bureaucrats with your complaints is largely a waste of

time. Effective action takes the form of informing others and contacting

your representatives in Congress. Remember: be “persistently

vocal”—politicians don't see the light; they feel the heat. Make them feel

the heat.

Ever heard of the Codex Alimentarius? If not, don't be surprised. It's one

of the best-kept “open secrets” of the U.S. government. The World Trade

Organization (WTO) accepted the standards of the Codex-and at some point,

all member countries of the WTO will be required to implement the Codex, 'to

harmonize the standards' for the global trade of foods. It may present the

greatest disaster for our food supply—and thus for our health—this country

has ever seen.

Codex is not an easy subject to get to grips with. With over 20 committees

meeting on an annual basis, and published reports comprising a total of over

1,600 pages in 2005 alone, most people are blissfully unaware of the extent

to which its activities affect their health. Read on to discover the bigger

picture behind the Codex Alimentarius Commission's support for the " business

with disease. "

MayDay is a Danish civil health-rights organization that has been following

Codex since 1999 and has taken part in the Danish national delegation to

Codex meetings. Despite Denmark's relatively small size, MayDay has had

significant impact on the European food-supplement regulatory scene and its

efforts are international in scope. MayDay has worked closely with the

US-based National Health Federation to oppose restrictive Codex guidelines

on food supplements. MayDay's extensive website is informative with articles

in both Danish and English.

Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) & Dietary Supplements

Rep. Ron Paul, MD, July 19, 2005—www.ronpaullibrary.org

The Codex Alimentarius Commission, organized by the United Nations in the

1960s, is charged with “harmonizing” food and supplement rules between all

nations of the world. As a result of Codex rules, those vitamins and

minerals that would compete with medicines would require a doctor's

prescription. The European Union already has adopted Codex-type regulations,

regulations that will be in effect across Europe later this year (2005).

This raises concerns that the Europeans will challenge our relatively open

market for health supplements in a WTO forum. This is hardly far-fetched, as

Congress already has cravenly changed our tax laws to comply with a WTO

order.

 

Make no mistake about it, those international standards are moving steadily

toward the Codex regime and its draconian restrictions on health freedom.

Pharmaceutical companies have spent billions of dollars trying to get

Washington to regulate your dietary supplements like European governments

do. So far, that effort has failed in America, in part because of a 1994 law

called the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act. Big Pharma and the

medical establishment hate this Act, because it allows consumers some

measure of freedom to buy the supplements they want.

 

The largely government-run healthcare establishment, including the nominally

private pharmaceutical companies, want government to control the

dietary-supplement industry-so that only they can manufacture and distribute

supplements of any real benefit. If that happens, as it already is happening

in Europe, the high-potency, beneficial supplements you now take will be

available only by prescription and at a much higher cost-if they are

available at all. This alone is sufficient reason for Congress to oppose the

unconstitutional, sovereignty-destroying CAFTA bill.

 

FDA and Congress are also working (FDA quite openly, Congress more covertly)

toward the goal of harmonizing our health laws with Codex Alimentarius

standards and guidelines.

Sharrhan Williamson—Boston, Massachusetts Area Codex Action Committee

Apparently, the problem with the U.S. being part of NAFTA and CAFTA is that

all the trading countries have to be on the same page, in lockstep,

accepting the same standards and regulations (and this is the purpose of the

Codex Alimentarius Commission-to standardize all regulations and make trade

policies easier and more profitable for trade interests but, as we know, not

good for consumers) for all products. American sovereignty is lost, at least

for international trade purposes, and the WTO will make rulings based upon

Codex standards rather than Congress and/or other government agencies.

 

Now we know that FDA is presently recommending that the U.S. harmonize with

Codex standards, and my reading of their attitude is that they would like

Codex standards not just for international trade, but for within the U.S. as

well. (And it may well be that we have no choice in the matter once we are

signed on to Codex.) The recent actions of Congress (bills that threaten

DSHEA) lead me to think they have a similar agenda.

 

The U.S. voted for CAFTA. It was a very close vote, and in fact, the

Republicans held the voting period open an extra hour or more while they

haggled with their party members to get enough votes, and they got them.

Codex Alimentarius Background and History

Compiled by Chris Gupta, based upon the work of Paul Anthony Taylor, Sepp

Hasslberger, Scott Tips and Helke Ferrie

Codex Alimentarius

" Codex Alimentarius " refers to a set of strict regulations covering all

aspects of food. " Codex Alimentarius " is Latin for " food code " or " food

regulations. " This collection of food rules in Europe dates back to food

standards enacted between 1897 and 1911 by the Austro-Hungarian Empire. They

were used as a legal reference by the courts as a standard, although the

Codex Alimentarius itself had no legal standing.

 

Modern Codex regulations are prepared by the Codex Alimentarius Commission

(herein referred to as " Codex " ), which works with the EU and UN in an

attempt to regulate every aspect of food production, packaging, preparation,

preservation, and presentation of food " from farm to fork. " Codex also

attempts to regulate supplemental nutrients. It even effectively eliminates

" organic produce " standards!

 

Codex's reach

The drug industry, recognizing that a majority of consumers prefer natural

remedy products over pharmaceuticals, wants nutritional supplements and

herbs either forbidden or priced out of reach. In Europe, the drug cartel

has succeeded in enacting Codex Alimentarius, which will accomplish that

objective on the European continent very soon. Adopted in a secret meeting

in the EU (European Union) in November 2004, it was voted on and approved in

June 2005, with a full European ban beginning its staged implementation on

August 1, 2005.

 

Because the U.S. belongs to the World Trade Organization (WTO), and because

the WTO and other treaty agreements require the United States to adhere to

Codex standards, any changes approved in Europe, and implemented in the

EU-dominated Codex meetings, could subject the United States to WTO-enforced

trade sanctions.

 

Codex will control:

1. Vitamins, minerals and nutrients,

2. Genetically modified organisms,

3. Toxic residues,

4. Antibiotics, drugs, growth stimulants, and other hormones in food

animals,

5. Organic foods, and

6. Irradiation of food.

 

The plan is to suppress all beneficial, high-potency nutrients, and to allow

only those and a few other vitamins and minerals that will be high-priced,

low-dosage, and synthetically made by drug companies.

 

Codex regulations will be binding internationally. Any nation that has

entered into trade agreements through the WTO and its adjunctive treaties

will eventually be forced to adopt Codex standards.

 

All “new” types of food supplements will be banned, unless tested and

approved in a drug-like manner. This will certainly be both time consuming

and unnecessarily expensive. Such tests will also be inadequate. A favorite

trick of drug and governmental authorities is to test such small doses of a

supplement that it does not prove of any noticeable value.

 

Codex standards are not based upon accepted scientific or research findings.

These standards are developed in a political atmosphere, with what many see

to be obligatory EU and drug-cartel approval.

 

Organic foods

The primary advantage of getting rid of true organic food is: without

quality food, people will become sicker and need more drugs. As a lesser

advantage, the farmers will decide to buy more insecticides and chemical

fertilizers. The standards and definitions of " organic food " will be

changed. Under Codex, a farmer or rancher will be able to call his products

" organic " when they are full of toxic poisons. The Codex definition of

" organic food " includes as little as 70% organic contents, but without

saying that on the label. (The other 30% can consist of poisons or

contaminants.)

 

The new laws requiring genetically modified crops, pesticides, hormones and

antibiotics in foods will be cost-prohibitive to people living in developing

nations, and billions of people may die and/or sicken as a result of these

policies.

 

Irradiation of food

Codex Alimentarius requires irradiation of food at the time of harvesting or

butchering. Codex has weakened the international food-irradiation rule, by

allowing any food to be irradiated at any dose, regardless of how high it

may be. Although allegedly designed to " protect us from food-borne illness, "

there is considerable scientific evidence that irradiation of food generates

extremely high amounts of free radicals in the food. Protein structures are

modified in unhealthy ways by introducing ionizing radiation into food

before it is eaten. Many individuals do not want their foods to be

irradiated, and this desire alone should be sufficient to make radiation of

food non-mandatory. Let individuals decide for themselves!

 

Codex is based neither on science nor democracy

Unelected government officials, working in cooperation with vested industry

and trade interests, make decisions that result in domestic and

international standards, which in turn are to be enacted into law by the

member states of the WTO. When the WTO was created, the enforcement

mechanisms for Codex and other international standards were created. With

this enforcement mechanism in place, an increased incentive therefore arose

to hijack the original purpose of Codex (to provide clean and safe food for

the planet with no international barriers to the movement of that food) and

use that purpose to promote a restrictive governmental agenda of ill-health

and suppression of natural alternatives to pharmaceutical medicines.

 

Harm in harmonization

Through the process called " harmonization, " our legislators in Washington

will be required to bring America into submission to and alignment with

harsh and restrictive Codex requirements, regulating international trade,

distribution, and processing of food, herbs and nutrients. Those proposed

standards will be extremely detrimental to the environment, your health and

your access to clean and unadulterated food that will enhance your health

rather than feed your ill-health.

 

The FDA is currently at work, preparing its own plans for " directives " for

" harmonization " of our dietary supplement laws so they will fully agree with

the excessively restrictive " international standard " set by the EU-dominated

Codex.

 

What Codex will accomplish

These new standards and guidelines will accomplish several objectives:

 

1. It will protect the multimillion euro (European equivalent of dollars)

investments of the large drug companies as well as their government-blessed

monopolies.

 

2. It will detour people from taking a non-medical healthcare route,

resulting in more power for the government-medical-pharma cartel, more

suffering and deaths for the populace, and the further degradation of life

on this planet.

 

Effects of the 1994 U.S. dietary-supplement law, DSHEA

In the United States, after DSHEA was enacted by Congress, Americans

suppliers were able for the first time to advertise some of the purported

health benefits of vitamins, minerals, and herbs, and to sell such products

free of the arbitrary powers of the FDA. DSHEA was passed because large

numbers of Americans demanded it. Over 2.5 million ordinary citizens wanted

to make sure dietary supplements would remain on the over-the-counter

market. By 2002, more nutritional supplements were being sold in the U.S.

than drug medications, such that some 1,000 new dietary supplements reach

the American market each and every year.

 

CAFTA agreement

Special clauses have been inserted into the Central American Free Trade

Agreement (CAFTA) designed to force America to submit to Codex standards

after its enactment by the U.S. Congress. CAFTA was passed by the U.S.

Senate and Congress in 2005. This laid the additional groundwork for the

U.S. government to restrict vitamin and supplement sales in accordance with

the " German Model " of healthcare. Gradually, DSHEA, which protects the

nutritional rights of Americans, is being nullified by these “end runs” and

the North American supplement industry (along with its healthfood stores) is

beginning to be squeezed out.

 

The power behind the throne

Codex is a joint venture between the United Nation's World Health

Organization and the Food and Agriculture Organization (WHO/FAO). The WTO

stated that it will enforce Codex " guidelines " as the world standard for

trade in food and food supplements. Both the FAO and the WHO are mandated to

protect the health and welfare of the world's population; but they obviously

have shirked this responsibility insofar as Codex decisions are made.

 

An immense German, French, U.S., and British drug cartel is behind this.

Codex is also working with other groups supporting the following agenda:

 

1. The chemical industry: requiring that all animals be treated with

antibiotics and hormones.

 

2. The largest seed company in the world: working toward 100% genetically

modified crops.

 

3. The nuclear industry: working toward many, if not all, food plants and

livestock being irradiated.

 

4. Those and other non-organic industries: ending truly " organic " foods or,

at least, making their procurement extremely difficult.

 

Hopefully, the facts will alarm you enough that you will want to immediately

contact Congress and tell them whether you truly want Codex standards to be

enacted and accepted in America.

 

Actions by the European Union and the United Nations affect millions of

lives. What makes it possible for drug companies to have so much influence

at the EU and UN and even within our own FDA? The answer is rather simple:

It is well-known that drug companies make excessive profits by overcharging

on patented medicinal drugs. They claim that the profits are needed for

research into new drugs. Yet, that research only requires paying the

salaries of a number of technicians working in laboratories. It is

well-known that most of the profits are used for advertising and similar

projects that will increase sales.

 

The powers on the throne

Some 167 countries are members of the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC).

Here is part of the web of international organizations with which Codex

works, in order to accomplish its objectives:

 

* Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO):

* International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)

* International Consultative Group on Food Irradiation (ICGFI)

* Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA):

* The European Commission on Food Safety (ECFS)

* United Nations (UN)

* World Health Organization (WHO)

* World Trade Organization (WTO)

 

The bottom line is that, for all their power, the pharmaceutical companies

could no more force you to buy their drugs and accept their medicines than

Wal-Mart could force you to buy its pots and pans. It is only the overriding

dictates of monopolistic legislation enacted by Congress—coupled with the

government-enforced monopoly given to government-licensed and approved

medical doctors—that narrows and restricts our healthcare choices. Without

these restrictive laws, you could thumb your nose at “Big Pharma” with

impunity as you bought and acquired all the natural health products you

wanted in a truly free market.

 

There are more than 20 Codex Alimentarius Committees

They develop guidelines-there are more than 16,000 pages of working

documents-on every aspect of food and present those guidelines to the Codex

for ratification. Trade organizations with strong publicly documented ties

to the pharmaceutical, chemical and agricultural industries have a very

influential voice at these meetings. There has been no wide-based

representation from health advocates, nutritional supplement manufacturers,

natural healthcare professionals, or other non-pharmaceutically oriented

group at the Codex meetings except for the National Health Federation (NHF),

which is the only health-freedom organization with official International

Nongovernmental Organization (INGO) status at these meetings. The NHF is the

only INGO voice consistently speaking for health freedom year after year at

these meetings.

 

Codex meets every year, alternating between Rome and Geneva, while its

various committees meet in various host countries (such as France, Germany,

Canada, Australia, the US, etc.). The U.S. representatives to Codex have

well-documented, unwholesome connections to the very industries that stand

to profit from the wholesale implementation of the Codex standards. Insofar

as the FDA is concerned, consumers have virtually no say at all.

 

The governments of both India and South Africa have repeatedly expressed

their dissatisfaction with the foolish nutritional theories of Codex and the

restriction of nutrients and herbs. But they have been regularly overrun,

during meetings, by ill-defined " consensus " tactics that do not allow full

discussion or debate on these crucial issues, or even true consensus.

 

The Power in Codex

Here is one of many reasons why Codex can overrule our U.S. dietary laws. In

the United States Federal Register, dated Oct. 11, 1995, the FDA's Policy on

Standards states that " where a relevant international standard exists, or

completion is imminent, it will generally be used in preference to a

domestic standard. " The U.S. Constitution states that U.S. treaties take

precedence over U.S. laws. There has been activity on Capitol Hill to

prepare " harmonization " rules, which will lock America into obedience to

Codex dietary standards.

 

It is important to note that Codex Alimentarius operates under the system

enshrined in the Napoleonic legal code, under which anything not explicitly

permitted is forbidden! In contrast to the Napoleonic legal code, the U.S.

operates under the more-sensible English-based Common Law, under which

anything not specifically forbidden is permitted.

 

WTO placed corporations over nations

The WTO has put the mechanisms in place to override any national law that

interferes with multinational corporate profits in international trade. That

is one of the reasons why Congressman Ron Paul tried to remove us from the

WTO in 2000 via House Joint Resolution 90. But Congress failed to enact his

proposal.

 

U.S. Codex Office

The U.S. Codex Office is found within the FDA which, in turn, is an agency

of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This Office works very

closely with Codex in Europe. If you go to its website, you will be told

this:

 

" The Codex Alimentarius Commission was created in 1963 by FAO and WHO to

develop food standards, guidelines and related texts such as codes of

practice under the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme. The main purposes

of this Programme are protecting health of the consumers and ensuring fair

trade practices in the food trade, and promoting coordination of all food

standards work undertaken by international governmental and non-governmental

organizations. "

 

The U.S. obeys WTO

Codex standards and guidelines were originally intended to be voluntary;

i.e., each nation could obey or disobey them. But that began to change when

the various nations signed new treaties at the Uruguay Round of General

Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), at which time the World Trade

Organization (WTO) came into existence. Because of what the united States

signed at Uruguay, we are required to obey the rulings of the WTO. The WTO

has enforcement power through a new international court, the Dispute

Settlement Body, which does not follow our rules of evidence and in which

our interests are represented by unelected government bureaucrats.

 

We have a controlled (or paid-off) press

This Codex crisis is the clearest proof this writer has ever seen that it is

true that we have a " controlled press " in America! There is absolutely no

mention of the fact by ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, BBC, or the newspapers and

newsmagazines that America is hurtling toward the total loss of effective

vitamin-and-herbal supplementation! They are silenced by their desire to not

offend the drug companies, which provide them with millions of dollars in

drug-ad revenues.

 

In my opinion, one of those projects is large political contributions to the

White House and Congress, as well as immense bribes to EU and UN officials.

Another project, I believe, is paying immense amounts of advertising dollars

to the various news media for drug ads—and then threatening to stop the

lucrative advertising if they tell the public what Codex is about to do. Now

you can understand why the newspapers, newsmagazines, and news broadcasts do

not say a word about the nutritional crisis about to break over our heads.

In 2004, pharmaceutical companies spent over $4 billion on direct consumer

advertising. This includes media advertising. In that same year, $785

million was spent on Congressional lobbying.

 

Can Codex be stopped?

There is no certainty about this. You should contact your Congressmen and

Senators, and tell them how you think they should vote. It is imperative

that concerned natural health consumers become organized and fully activated

to stop Codex from being enacted in the United States.

July 4, 2007 Update by Sharrhan Williamson

Just this week, FDA announced that it was implementing tough, new “Good

Manufacturing Practices” regulations that would adversely affect sales of

vitamins and minerals. For once, the FDA was very forthright: many small

supplement businesses will have to go out of business. News sources pointed

out that the big vitamin/supplement companies that are set to stay in

business (Vitamin Shoppe, GNC, etc.) have strong pharmaceutical company

backing.

 

Also, Senator Ted Kennedy's FDA " revitalization " bill S. 1082 is another

blow to DSHEA: it has damaging language in it that allows FDA and Congress

to dismantle it. Dr. Ron Paul is trying to counteract it with a couple of

new bills. We'll see if he is successful.

 

Codex is happening, albeit they are implementing it in small stages so that

the public hardly notices. If we call Congress to complain, they'll say, " Oh

no, that's not happening. " We must read between the lines and look at all

the evidence-it's as plain as day.

 

Perhaps the good that will come from all of this is that people will get

back to creating more good organic food and herbs locally than ever before.

July 16, 2007 Update by Scott C. Tips of National Health Federation

Codex (Rome): The Non-Meeting

The 30th Session of the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) in Rome, Italy

just ended (July 2-7, 2007). Heaping platefuls of Codex standards and

guidelines were advanced to their final stages as if starving people were

gathered around a banquet table. It did not matter what was heaped on the

plate, it got passed to the table regardless. It also did not matter that

there were some 451 country delegation members and another 61 INGO

(International Nongovernmental Organization) delegate-observers from around

the World in attendance (or pretend attendance), the CAC Chairman, Dr.

Claude Mosha, plowed forward on a one-man mission from God pushing aside any

and all objections—excuse me, he called them " reservations " —that were made.

It would not have mattered if a plate of rotten tomatoes had been presented

to him for approval, he would have approved them too. In this one meeting,

the CAC was rendered irrelevant as a meaningful " approving " body, for it

merely rubber stamped without thought what had been done by others. Mimi

the Gorilla could have done just as good a job.

 

That is the essence of what happened at the Codex meeting as Sepp

Hasslberger and I (the National Health Federation delegation) saw it. To

read our full report, see www.thenhf.com/press_releases/pr_16_jul_2007.html.

While Americans Slept by A. Ofria

When we see powerful players forcing our leaders to act in ways that

threaten the rights that Americans have historically died to preserve, we

must remind them of their duty to safeguard our way of life. If we do not

raise our voices above the clamor of multinational commercial interests, we

may be silenced forever.

Take Action by Scott C. Tips

Legislation can either protect or restrict your health and other freedoms.

So long as there is some semblance of representation in the halls of

Congress, you must use whatever influence you have as a constituent on your

Senators and Congressional representative. So, let all three of them know

that you oppose American harmonization to Codex Alimentarius standards and

all other restrictions upon your right to purchase and grow naturally

healthful foods and choose naturally healthful goods and services.

 

Remember the National Health Federation's action motto: “Be persistently

vocal.” That is, do not just send one letter or fax, or one e-mail and then

sit back and watch TV reruns, thinking your job is done. Be persistent—do

all three, and when you are done, do them again and pick up the telephone to

call them with your concerns. Make your views so well known to your

representatives that they'll persist in their minds, even when there are on

the Senate or House floor. “Politicians don't see the light, they feel the

heat.” Make them feel the heat.

 

To begin, you could say:

 

" I am asking you to do two things to protect our health freedoms here at

home: 1. Support the Health Freedom Protection Act (H.R.2117) by signing on

as a co-sponsor; and 2. Oppose all efforts to harmonize or conform our

American system of food and food-supplement regulation to the

European-dominated Codex Alimentarius Commission's health standards, which

are based on junk science. "

 

Then, unify your efforts with others by joining an organization such as the

National Health Federation with an established track record of

pro-health-freedom action. Acting together, your individual efforts will be

coordinated and amplified.
