Supplement Industry Under Massive Global Assault

NUTSHELL SUMMARY: The pharmaceutical industry is pulling out all the stops

this summer to set the stage for the total annexation of the dietary

supplement

industry. In Australia the TGA yanked over 1600 dietary supplements from the

shelves under false pretenses [ See article Natural Justice? <A

Massive pressure is being put on New Zealand, and Canada to harmonize their

vitamin regs to Australia's overly stringent pharmaceuticalized regs, while

all

the EU nations will be required by July to harmonize their vitamin laws to

the mindlessly restrictive EU Food Supplement Directive by July...... UNLESS

it

is overturned by the lawsuit that Alliance for Natural Health will be filing

(and for which they badly need donations from consumers world wide. See <A

HREF= " http://www.iahf.com/anh_lawsuit.html " >

http://www.iahf.com/anh_lawsuit.html</A>

 

In Canada, the government was scheduled to gazzette new regs on June 18th to

harmonize Canada to Australia- going totally against the will of the people.

A

pitched battle is ensuing led by Trueman Tuck <A

Tony Stephan <A HREF= " http://www.truehope.com/ " >http://www.truehope.com</A>

and by the Strauss Herb Co. <A HREF= " http://www.straussherbco.com/ " >

http://www.straussherbco.com</A> All three are suing Health Canada in an

attempt to stop their

unconstitutional efforts to block Canadians access to dietary supplements

and

to destroy the industry. They're also pushing bill C-420 in Parliament and

are trying to drive the Health Minister out of office before an election

year.

 

In the USA the FDA will be coming out with illegal Good Manufacturing

Practice Regulations which will exceed the mandate of the Dietary Supplement

Health

and Education Act which only allows them to come out with food based GMPs.

The

regs they're coming out with are an attempt to harmonize the USA to

Australia's pharmaceuticalized regulatory system which just allowed the TGA

to engage in

a fraudulent recall of over 1600 products under false pretenses. TGA used

site licensing as a weapon to wrongly shut down Pan Pharmaceuticals, the

largest

supplement manufacturer in Australia. They'd like to use the same weapon in

the USA and to create a media circus similar to the one the Australian press

generated in the wake of the Pan recall.

 

WHY YOU MUST DONATE TO ANH: HOW THIS PERTAINS TO AMERICA:

 

Unless we overturn the EU Food Supplement Directive, there will be no way to

stop a really dangerous vitamin standard from being rammed through to

completion at CODEX. The EU is going to expand by 10 new nations in 2004-

and that

will enable the Cartel to do whatever they want at Codex. The USA has been

set up

for harmonization via a whitewashed Codex vitamin oversight hearing on March

20, 2001. The fix is in. This forces us to assist our international allies-

we

have no choice but to play an international game to defend our own access.

See the letter from Congressman De Fazio and Congressman Paul to Congressman

Burton for clarification <A

HREF= " http://www.iahf.com/index2.html " >http://www.iahf.com/index2.html</A>

Too bad Burton wrongly

ignored this letter. The only way we can monkeywrench the cartel's takeover

now

is to donate to the ANH lawsuit.

Why haven't you learned of this threat via the local health food store? The

vitamin trade associations are being manipulated from the top- down by

pharmaceutical interests. They have been doing spin against my message for

years,

keeping health food stores and rank and file members of trade associations

such as

NNFA in the dark, actively misleading them into believing that this is a

" non

issue " and that " they have it covered. " Controlled opposition groups such as

IADSA (see expose at <A

HREF= " http://iadsa-exposed.tripod.com/ " >http://iadsa-exposed.tripod.com</A>

) are doing the exact

OPPOSITE of what the industry has been led to BELIEVE they're doing. IADSA

is

chaired by an employee of Pfizer, Randy Dennin. See the smoking gun that

exposes

IADSA as fraudulent at <A

HREF= " http://iadsa-exposed.tripod.com/ " >http://iadsa-exposed.tripod.com</A>

 

IADSA kicked one of their member trade associations out under false

pretenses. (NNFA New Zealand was kicked out, with IADSA refusing to do

anything to help

defend New Zealand from massive pharmaceutical pressure emanating from

Australia, for NZ to harmonize their very liberal food based supplement regs

to

Australia's far more stringent pharmaceuticalized regs which just resulted

in a

NUCLEAR STRIKE against our industry there. (The Australian TGA just yanked

over

1600 dietary supplement products from health food store shelves without

having

a single product assay to prove any were " dangerous. " ) IADSA is setting up

the industry for harmonization to Australia, the EU and Codex while

PRETENDING

to be " defending " the industry. The only interests IADSA is in FACT

defending

are those of Pfizer and the other large companies at the expense of small

manufacturers and consumers. For updates sign onto the IAHF email
