Urgent Alert - Preserve Your Health Rights

 

 

Citizens For Health

 

URGENT HEALTH ALERT! DEADLINE FEBRUARY 1st

 

Dietary Supplements are Important to YOUR Health

Tell the FDA to RESPECT your HEALTH RIGHTS

 

Take Action Today! It only takes one minute to send an email

message to the FDA.

FDA is reviewing portions of DSHEA, the Dietary Supplement Health

Education Act. The agency may propose new and overly burdensome

regulations that could restrict your access to new dietary ingredients

and dietary supplements that were not on the market prior to 1994 when

DSHEA was passed.

 

Recall that 2.5 million concerned consumers contacted Congress

between 1992 and 1994 to support DSHEA and assure access to their

supplements. In response to the overwhelming consumer support,

Congress passed DSHEA and deliberately created new and different

regulations for dietary supplements. Congress enacted DSHEA to stop

the FDA from treating dietary supplements like food additives or drugs

and to protect consumer's rights to purchase these products.

 

We need to make our voices heard once again!

The deadline is February 1, 2005. Send YOUR Letter NOW

http://www.healthactioncenter.com/ctt.asp?u=3026718 & l=74264

 

Tell the FDA to uphold DSHEA and your continued access to

beneficial dietary supplements today! At risk are many innovative

and particularly effective dietary supplements. The FDA needs to

hear from you to preserve your hard-won access to the most innovative

and important health products. Any new guidelines that require

onerous food additive and drug like notifications, excessive testing

and documentation will make the introduction of new products

unnecessarily expensive.

 

This disincentive for companies to develop new health promoting

products will assuredly lead to the reduction of many products that

can benefit the health of Americans. It could block consumer access to

validated new and innovative products -- for good. American consumers

have the right to these health enhancing products that are also shown,

in many cases, to reduce the staggering public health burden, and

reduce the cost of health care.

 

We only have a few short weeks to send a strong message. The FDA

is considering comments until February 1,2005. Make sure your voice

is heard.

 

Washington, DC needs to hear from at least 25,000 consumers who

care about their health rights. Urge the FDA to ensure that any new

guidelines for New Dietary Ingredients reflect the intent of Congress

and continue to provide complete access to the safe, affordable and

innovative dietary supplements you rely on for your health.

 

 

Take action today!
