Washington, D.C. 20500

 

Dear Commissions and Bureau of Consumer Protection Officials:

 

This open letter is in response to the e-mailed notice that you sent to our

customer service representative at www.cureforSARS.net wherein you wrote:

 

" The Federal Trade Comission staff has reviewed marketing claims on your web

site . . . " and that " we remind you that the FTC Act requires that health-

related claims, . . . [for] SARS must be supported by competent and reliable

scientific evidence at the time the claims are made. "

 

This provides you with notice of three health-related claims that we are making

regarding SARS and our Internet communications: 1) The scientific evidence

supporting our justifiable claims regarding the utility of a plant-based

formula for SARS is available on our website--www.cureforSARS.net-based on the

scientific publication by Towers, et al.(1995) from the Journal of

Ethnopharmacology; 2) We do not recognize the FDA, or your " commission " in

collaboration with them, pursuant to this notice, as anything other than

irresponsible, misplaced, and misdirected authority; and 3) The insidious

economic motive behind your political notice is transparent among well-educated

consumers and natural healthcare investigators and providers.

 

Such commercial interference, allegedly on behalf of American consumers and

public health, is rooted in the advancing Anglo-American global Codex

Alimentarious legislation that seeks to control all non-patent-protected

natural cures and treatments on behalf of multinational drug companies (best

termed the " global petrochemical-pharmaceutical cartel " ).

 

In other words, we view the FDA's widely publicized persuasion campaign

attacking natural healing practitioners and formula manufacturers as a real

life enactment of the " Wizard of Oz. " Pull back the curtain and behold who

profits pulling strings on your commission and the FDA overstepped authority.

 

We notice that responsibility for your electronic notification was signed, not

by a person, but by your non-human organization/entity. For your information

and official notification, we only respect and respond to real people.

 

As sovereign individuals subservient to only one Creator, we rebuke any and all

misplaced authority in your " commission. " We do this cognizant of rapidly

advancing multinational corporate efforts increasingly administered through the

World Health Organization (WHO), affecting global drug sales, healthcare

policies, and contrived declarations of urgencies directed against nation

states to compel compliance with neocolonialistic politics, policies, and

interventions inconsistent with personal freedoms and democratic governments.

 

Your transparent efforts may be effective in deceiving the general population,

but most of us in the natural healing arts and sciences are not fooled or

frightened by your threats.

 

Most members of our allied organizations view as inexcusable, if not

despicable, increasing German-American political efforts to suppress natural

healing methods and materials. This includes new SARS treatments and potential

cures at a time of global urgency when, in fact, government health officials in

the hardest hit nations, including China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan,

have been embracing herbal and plant-derived natural medicines for the

prevention and treatment of SARS.

 

We notice your commission and the FDA turns a blind eye to the promotion and

use of the experimental, expensive, and highly toxic drug Ribaviron, never

tested against the SARS-associated coronavirus, yet widely promoted as the

standard for SARS patient care since before anyone knew the illness was linked

to a coronavirus. Reflecting on the FDA's and your commission's official

tolerance of this harmful, if not lethal, practice by the mainstream media and

medical doctors treating SARS patients adequately exposes your hypocrisy.

 

American tax dollars would be far better spent having your commission and the

FDA address the third leading cause of death in the United States-iatrogenesis,

that is, physician-induced illnesses and lethal drug side effects. How do you

have the audacity to virtually disregard this pervasive public health threat,

yet proclaim throughout the media our natural healthcare industry's

shortcomings?

 

What is most sad is your organizations' manipulation of the average American

who does not comprehend this joint FDA/FCC attack for what it really is-simply

a promotion to facilitate a form of nutritional and pharmacological slavery

through a political and economic drug agenda called Codex Alimentarious. In

recent years the global drug cartel has sought to pirate and patent anything

uncontrolled in nature's bounty. Examples of this, in recent months, include

further violations of freedom of choice with declared restraints on ginseng

production and the classification and labeling of stevia-the natural

therapeutic sugar substitute-as a regulated " nutritional supplement " rather

than a food.

 

Beyond these reasons for our disregard of your authority, there are many more

egregious violations of human rights perpetrated by those with whom you are

associated. One example involves the origin of HIV/AIDS and the FDA's apparent

role, in collaboration with the Merck pharmaceutical company and the Centers

for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), having cooperatively produced the

1974 hepatitis B vaccines tested on gay men in New York City and Central

African Black women. According to the most recent scientific evidence cited and

discussed at www.originofAIDS.com, this collaboration played a major role in

triggering the international AIDS pandemic.

 

In conclusion, we will not be intimidated, coerced, or corrupted by your drug

company collaborating administration and/or commission. We understand that

mostly well-meaning persons within your ranks have been persuaded, largely by

deception, to act as agents on behalf of the above named global menaces. We

simply rebuke your misdirected, politically contrived authority, yet remain

open to serving your policy-makers by sharing, in every way possible, the

uncommon intelligence required to expose and arrest the " Wizard of Oz behind

the curtain " for the sake of world health and the public's protection.

 

Very truly yours,

NOTICE OF POTENTIAL ILLEGAL MARKETING OF PRODUCTS OR THERAPIES

 

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION

BUREAU OF CONSUMER PROTECTION

WASHINGTON, DC 20580

 

VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL

TO: www.cureforsars.net

 

RE: NOTICE OF POTENTIAL ILLEGAL MARKETING OF PRODUCTS OR THERAPIES TO PREVENT,

TREAT, OR CURE SEVERE ACUTE RESPIRATORY SYNDROME (SARS)

 

DATE: MAY 12, 2003

 

Federal Trade Commission staff has reviewed marketing claims on your web site

relating to the prevention, treatment or cure of Severe Acute Respiratory

Syndrome (SARS). We remind you that the FTC Act requires that health-related

claims, such as claims that a dietary supplement will prevent, treat or cure

SARS, or claims that an air filtration device or cleaning agent can kill or

eliminate the virus thought to cause SARS, must be supported by competent and

reliable scientific evidence at the time the claims are made. In other words,

it is against the law to make health claims, whether directly or indirectly

through the use of a product name, web site name, metatags, or any other means,

without scientific support or to exaggerate the benefits of products or

services you are promoting. Violations of the FTC Act may result in legal

action in the form of Federal District Court injunction or Administrative

Order. An order also may require that you pay money back to consumers.

 

In addition, claims that a product is intended to prevent, diagnose, mitigate,

treat, or cure SARS may cause the product to be an unapproved new drug or

device under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). The Act prohibits

the introduction into interstate commerce of unapproved new drugs and certain

devices.

 

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), SARS is an

infectious respiratory illness that appears to be spread primarily by close

person-to-person contact by cough or sneeze allowing droplets containing

infectious virus to reach the respiratory tract of persons in close proximity.

SARS may also be spread by touching objects contaminated with infectious

droplets and then touching one's eye(s), nose, or mouth. Although federal and

world health authorities are investigating possible vaccines to prevent SARS

and drugs to treat the illness, there are currently no medicines proven to

prevent, treat or cure SARS or the coronavirus believed to be the cause of SARS.

 

If you are marketing a dietary supplement for SARS, you should also be aware

that a broad coalition of representatives of the dietary supplement industry

has issued a joint statement indicating that no dietary supplement has been

shown to prevent or treat SARS and advising against the marketing of dietary

supplements as a remedy for SARS. The joint statement of the American Herbal

Products Association, Consumer Healthcare Products Association, Council for

Responsible Nutrition, National Nutritional Foods Association, and Utah Natural

Products Alliance is available through those organizations' web sites.

 

Action Requested

 

The FTC staff strongly urges you to review all claims you are making for your

products, particularly claims that your products can prevent, mitigate, treat

or cure SARS. If your claims are not supported by competent and reliable

scientific evidence they should be deleted or revised immediately.

 

FTC investigators have copied and preserved the pages of your online

promotional materials and will be revisiting your website

soon.

 

Please notify us via electronic mail to cureall within 7 days of the

specific actions you have taken to address the

agency's concerns.

IMMED IATE RELEASE FROM:

WORLD NATURAL HEALTH ORGANIZATION

http://www.wnho.net

 

World Natural Health Organization founding member, Dr. Joseph Puleo, leading

naturopathic physician, spearheads research finding natural treatment for SARS.

 

MAY 6, 2003

 

DOCTORS MAKE NATURAL TREATMENT FOR SARS AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE

 

SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA - A team of Doctors well-known for their research in

alternative medicine and emerging diseases has developed an effective treatment

for SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) utilizing a little-known antidote

to coronavirus. According to the Doctors, coronavirus can be successfully

treated with methanolic extracts of two berry bushes common to British Columbia

and the northwestern states - Amelanchier alnifolia and Rosa nutkana both

members of the Rosaceae family of plants.

 

Dr. Leonard Horowitz, a Harvard-trained, internationally known expert in public

health and emerging diseases and Dr. Joseph Puleo, a leading naturopathic

physician and a founding member of the World Natural Health Organization

(http://www.wnho.net) developed the treatment from findings originally made in

1995. Esteemed Canadian botanist Dr. Neil Towers, Professor Emeritus at the

University of British Columbia, pioneered the decade-old study that proved

Rosacaea plants could overcome coronavirus infections in cell cultures, a

system far more sensitive to toxicity than living organisms.

 

Doctors Horowitz and Puleo advanced Dr. Towers' studies by adding two

additional natural ingredients and have named the new treatment the " Urbani

SARS Formula. " The name recognizes Italian communicable disease expert Dr.

Carlo Urbani, one of the disease's earliest victims. Dr Urbani, who received a

Nobel Peace Prize for his humanitarian work with Doctors Without Borders, died

in Thailand after contracting the disease while caring for patients.

 

While the Doctors cannot make " cure " claims due to variations between

individuals and FDA restrictions, they profess that the ingredients in the

Urbani SARS Formula are time-tested, inexpensive, readily available and well

proven against the bovine coronavirus and other respiratory pathogens. Dr.

Puleo saw rapid improvement among patients who presented in March with SARS-

like symptoms at the Natural Health Research Clinic he directs in Sandpoint,

Idaho.

 

The primary ingredients in the proprietary Urbani SARS Formula are extremely

hard to acquire in freshly harvested lots, which are required for maximum

strength and effectiveness. The ingredients include:

 

Lomatium dissectum root extract. This has been known for centuries to have

potent anti-microbial uses and to be useful as an immuno-stimulant. It also

protects cells from another pathogen, the Rotavirus, which is a common cause of

dysentery. SARS has been linked to symptoms of dysentery in a significant

number of cases. It was used by Native Americans as a food and as a medicine

for treatment of Tuberculosis and other lung infections. It has been used

effectively in the treatment of bronchitis and pneumonia.

 

Devil's Club (Oplopanax horridus). This is best known as an immune-

boosting " adaptogen " that mitigates the effect of stress throughout the body.

It also functions as an expectorant and mucous secretion stimulator when

prescribed for respiratory infections. Native Americans have long used Devil's

Club to help heal insulin-resistant type II diabetes. Dr. Puleo explains that

most SARS victims have ongoing blood sugar and immune-suppressive problems that

give viral infections the edge over natural immunity.

 

The Rosaceae (Amelanchier ainifolia and Rosa nutkana or Saskatoons). These

berries are a naturally-occurring edible fruit once used by Native Americans

for stomach problems and for maternal recovery after childbirth. In 1995 it was

demonstrated that extracts from these berries were very active against

coronaviruses.

 

Xylitol Sugar. Xylitol is a relatively new weapon in the war against infectious

diseases. This five-carbon sugar was largely unappreciated before WW II sugar

shortages brought it to attention. Researchers in Finland determined that a 5%

solution of Xylitol reduced 68% of Strep and Pneumonia bacteria attachments and

50% of flu viruses. Small amounts of Xylitol are made naturally in the body,

which means it does not have the problems associated with man-made antibiotics.

Bacteria do not develop a resistance to Xylitol and cannot introduce mutating

strains to overcome its effectiveness.

 

The Doctors Horowitz and Puleo have granted worldwide distribution rights of

the Urbani SARS Formula to World Natural Cures, LLC, a firm directed by Mr.

John Mills. Mr. Mills can be contacted at 1-800-336-9266 or via e-mail at

john. The product is available in four formulations, including

the Extra Strength Tincture, the Standard Urbani SARS Formula, the Extra

Strength Homeopathic, and a nasal spray. The first three are prescribed the

same way: " Apply nine drops under the tongue three times per day for up to nine

days. "

 

Because the proprietary formulas are not toxic in the manufactured amounts, the

dosage does not have to be reduced for children, although the homeopathic

remedy is especially recommended for young children and infants. Costs for the

two-ounce bottles are extremely reasonable compared to the risky antiviral

drugs and steroids currently prescribed for SARS.
