Good News and Better News
You are busy so here are the bottom line news items on the FDA Guidance battle
we are in right now:


Public Comment Period Extended: Natural Solutions Foundation's formal request
for an extension for Public Comments was turned down BUT then the FDA did extend
the comment period to May 29, 2007!
PLEASE FORWARD this call for action TO YOUR entire E-MAIL LIST and sign the
petition:
According to the latest news only 100,000 people expressed their outrage about
the new FDA plans, and over 2 millions comments are needed!
May 29,2007
There is a crisis in health freedom. On April 30, 2007 the FDA will close the
public comment period on a "Guidance" which will classify every alternative
practice as medicine so that only licensed physicians can carry out the
procedure AND vitamins, minerals, herbs, etc., will suddenly become "untested
drugs" which will be forbidden.

Bad? Real Bad! But public outcry can stop this assault on your health and your
freedom.

Spread the word! Tell everyone in your Circle of Influence, professionals,
alternative practitioners, nutrient and herb companies, everyone! Let them know
how important their participation is to make sure the FDA backs off from this
repressive course.

Please share this link with them and urge them to take action:

Guest Blog from Ralph Fucetola, JD. Please read and share widely. <- This is a
link to the blog – This is a lon blog so I put down some quotes he made so the
people I send this to would read. If this is to log just read the highlighted
area. Today, Saturday, April 28, 2007, the Working Group on the Proposed Draft
Amendment for the Labeling of Prepackaged Food will meet in the Ottawa Congress
Center, Ottawa, Canada. On Sunday, April 29, the Working Group for the
Production, Processing, Labeling and Marketing of Organically Produced Foods
will meet. Both meetings are a single day long each year. Both sort out thorny
issues n dry as dust terms. But that dust, like the rest of Codex, contains the
seeds of the future health of the planet within it. Each Working Group meets for
a one day meeting held each year before the start of the Codex Committee on Food
Labeling which is hosted by Canada in Ottawa annually.
After the meeting tomorrow I will fill you in on what takes place. What is
going on at Codex is vitally important to your health and your planet. BUt what
is going on at Codex is also going on at home, too.

Here is Ralph’s Guest Blog:

A Natural Solutions Foundation Guest Editorial
Don’t be Duped: Multiple Assaults Need Multiple Responses
Our Health Freedom is threatened again. It’s been going on for centuries, this
struggle between healers and bureaucrats.……………
"1 As recently as the start of the Twentieth Century, one state Supreme Court
noted, ""The state has not restricted the cure of the body to the practice of
medicine and surgery — allopathy, as it is termed… that would be to limit
progress by establishing allopathy as the state system of healing, and
forbidding all others. This would be as foreign to ours system as a state church
for the cure of souls… To restrict all healing to that one kind — to allopathy,
excluding homeopathy, osteopathy, and all other treatments — might be a
protection to doctors in surgery and medicine; but that is not the object of the
act, and might make it unconstitutional, because creating a monopoly." 2
Just such a monopoly was created. For convenience, we can call it the Big
Pharma Cartel. It has money and powerful friends in government – who often play
bureaucratic "musical chairs" among agencies, big companies and universities.
They use that power to harass, jail and even kill their competitors.
The battle is being fought in each state, where now discredited "quackbusters"
attacked doctors wanting to practice advanced CAM techniques; in the federal
government where important therapies that can benefit many people, such as the
responsible use of silver in health 3, are under attack; and on the
international level where "harmonization" means reducing our Freedom to some
bland bureaucratic "minimum daily requirement." On the international level Codex
Alimentarius, the World Food Code, is the chief bureaucratic mechanism to
undermine organic standards, prevent people from knowing what foods are
genetically modified – and which are not – and otherwise make the Big Pharma
Cartel agenda international policy. Regional bureaucracies, such as the EU,
NAFTA and the ominous North American Union play an important role in imposing
the harm of harmonization. 4
Recently, even the Journal of the AMA, JAMA, included a highly suspect
"meta-analysis" of carefully chosen "studies" to claim that taking vitamins
could be bad for your health! It has been suggested that those who trust the AMA
and FDA should certainly not take any vitamins, especially the mega doses many
of us have used for decades. Then in a few years, we’ll see who is still around
to continue the argument!
The grassroots of the Health Freedom Movement caught fire when the people
learned that FDA’s bureaucrats, under the guise of "just restating the law" were
actually setting the basis for handing over our supplements and alternatives to
the Big Pharma Cartel. 6
But the song continues, and big government representative Ted Kennedy, has
just introduced S 1082, a bill that may gut our Health Freedom. Curiously, we
had heard this bill was dead before submission and would not be submitted. As
soon as the current public outcry reached a very high level, along comes the
senator, with a bill intended to divert attention from the other anti-supplement
bills, Codex, the NAU and the anti-CAM guidance.
It is time to Kill the Kennedy Bill in Committee! While we won’t be diverted
from our vigilance of the FDA anti-CAM maneuver, it is important to react to
these other assaults on Health Freedom. We would like to see this bill killed in
committee. Better to knock it out in congressional committee than allow it to
waste our time. While comments directed at the FDA over its anti-CAM draft
guidance was the proper response, as required by the Federal Register notice,
this back-door effort by the senior senator from Massachusetts should be met
with a flood of messages to the chairman and the members of the oversight
committee that must approve the bill before it goes before the entire Senate.
That will be our strategy in the coming weeks.
All of these multiple assaults are, of course, connected. They are connected
in philosophy, proponents and beneficiaries. Their proponents refuse to allow us
the freedom to make our own choices, deeming that their political power gives
them the authority to decide for us.
We have had enough of such "deciders". They have given us a medical system
that kills hundreds of thousands each year. We reject the philosophy that "the
leader is always right;" that we should just shut up and take all the
prescriptions Big Pharma sells. We know that the cartel that benefits from all
these rules and regulations has plenty of money and jobs to bribe politicians
and bureaucrats. None of that matters when the people are alerted and vigilant!
We assert our "Right to heal and be healed." 6 We will not be duped by false
leaders, naysayers and nitpickers. We are "mad as hell and won’t take it
anymore!" The time has come to assert that fundamental right. We need, in both
law and fact, for this basic human right to be respected.
We need an end to the power of the cartel and its bureaucratic allies. And all
this will come to pass using the tools of modern communication, which will
prove, I believe, in the end, more powerful than cartels and politicians. It
does, however, depend on you.
Take Action NOW! Problems with link? Plan B

You need to support organizations like the Natural Solutions Foundation,
www.HealthFreedomUSA.org, which shows continuing leadership and, in fact, broke
the FDA Guidance story. Like everyone else which unmasks the face of the Big
Pharma Objective they are currently being smeared and defamed through
disinformation and innuendo. Don’t be duped by disinformation any more than you
are by bad science. It’s up to you to see through to the core of truth and to
make your voice heard.
