The Time Has Come
Call for a Constitution for a New World of Peace, Health and Social Justice

Interview with Matthias Rath, M.D.
www.dr-rath-health-foundation.org
>
> Dr. Rath, after your campaign against the war on Iraq, the public is
> interested to know more about you, can you please give us more information
> about your achievements?
>
> First of all let me emphasize, I'm a doctor, a scientist and - above all -
> a human being, an inhabitant of our planet with the desire to keep this
> planet intact and not to allow it to be incinerated in a third world war. As a
> doctor and scientist I was privileged to contribute to several areas which
> will allow mankind to build a healthier and hopefully more peaceful world.
> My discoveries in the area of natural health prevention and treatment of
> cardiovascular disease will allow us to largely eradicate heart attacks,
> strokes, high blood pressure, heart failure, irregular heart beat and a
> variety of other related conditions in this and the future generations of
> mankind. The second contribution to mankind I made was the exposure of the
> pharmaceutical industry as the largest investment industry on earth,
> maintaining and promoting one of the largest deception and fraud schemes
in the history of mankind. While the advertisements promise "health" the very
> market place of this investment industry is the existence and expansion of
> diseases. Prevention, root cause treatment and eradication of diseases
> threaten the pharmaceutical "investment business with disease" and are
> therefore fought by the so-called pharmaceutical cartel. In a public
> presentation in June 1997, I formulated for the first time the sobering
> analysis, that the very industry that claims the monopoly on global
"health care" is by itself the biggest obstacle for the people of the world to
> enjoy a healthy life. The third accomplishment I consider noteworthy is the
fact
> that I was able to spread this life saving information and analysis on a
> global scale. By doing that it became so threatening to the multi-trillion
> dollar pharmaceutical investment group that it is now seeking to cement
its global grip on the people of the world with the help of legal force
through protection laws and the abandoning of civil rights. The pretence for
this
> strategy is the so-called global "war on terrorism". This war against
> "terrorism" is not a real war. It is strategically developed and
> implemented to create a global state of fear and intimidation that allows the
> implementation of such drastic legal measures not only in America, but
also around the world. My closest co-workers foresaw this development more than
> a decade ago. It was at that time that the late two-time Nobel Laureate
> Linus Pauling said: "Your discoveries are so important that they threaten
> entire industries. One day there may even be wars just to prevent your
> breakthrough from being widely accepted."
>
> You graduated from medical school and worked as a doctor and researcher,
> what made you switch to research in natural therapies?
>
> I started off in conventional research into the causes of cardiovascular
> disease. At that time it was thought that high cholesterol levels were the
> main factor for causing heart attacks and strokes. Under the influence of
> the manufacturers of cholesterol lowering drugs, the medical doctors were
> told that high cholesterol levels damage the blood vessel walls, thereby
> leading to their thickening and eventually to their blockage leading to
> heart attacks and strokes. Today we know this was just another marketing
> story of the pharmaceutical industry. If high cholesterol would damage the
> blood vessel walls it would do so everywhere along the long pipeline of
our blood vessel system. This system would clog everywhere and not just in the
> heart or in the brain. In other words, we would also get infarctions of
the nose, the ear, the knees, elbows, fingers and any other organ of the body.
> This is clearly not the case. Then I discovered that cardiovascular
disease is essentially unknown in the animal world, whereas amongst human beings
it is a leading cause of death. The next discovery was a breakthrough for
> natural health worldwide. Animals manufacture their own vitamin C in their
> bodies, which is required to produce the reinforcement molecules of our
> body and its blood vessel system called collagen. The more vitamin C, the more
> collagen, the more stability for our blood vessel walls and the less heart
> attacks. Animals rarely get heart attacks because they produce sufficient
> amounts of vitamin C in their own bodies. We human beings cannot produce a
> single molecule of this vitamin and frequently get too few vitamins in our
> diet, exposing our blood vessel system to weakness and to the development
> of deposits. These deposits develop primarily in areas where our blood
vessels are exposed to mechanical stress, such as the coronary arteries of the
> pumping heart. This series of discoveries was so compelling that it not
> only explains why animals don't get heart attacks but people do but also
> why we get heart attacks and not nose attacks. In the meantime these dramatic
> findings were confirmed by research data and clinical studies beyond any
> doubt. So the scientific discoveries that passed my way were the most
> important reason why I left conventional research and turned to the
> molecules that are most effective in preventing and curing today's
> diseases - the molecules that are produced by nature itself and are
> required for the optimum functioning of the cells.
>
> Many of your research papers were published in scientific magazines. What
> was the focus of your research?
>
> The discovery about the nature of cardiovascular disease, that is the
cause of heart attacks and strokes, was just the beginning. Understanding that
> vitamins, minerals, certain amino acids and trace elements are needed as
> biological "fuel" for millions of cells in our body, it became obvious
that not only coronary artery disease and heart attacks could be prevented by
> applying this knowledge, so could variety of today's most common health
> conditions. Over the past years my research institute in collaboration
with scientists and doctors worldwide have established beyond any doubt, that
> the following diseases are primarily caused by long-term deficiencies in these
> micronutrients (vitamins, minerals etc.). By supplying an optimum amount
of these micronutrients either in our regular diet or by supplementing our
> diet, the following health conditions can largely be prevented: High blood
> pressure (caused by long term micronutrient deficiency in millions of
cells of the blood vessel wall), heart failure (micronutrient deficiency in
> millions of heart muscle cells) as well as irregular heart beat, diabetic
> circulatory problems and others.
> Another significant discovery was the natural way to prevent cancer cells
> from spreading in the body. Some years ago I had published information
that all cancer cells, irrespective of what type of cancer and in which organ
it begins, spread in the same way. They use "biological scissors" (enzymes)
> that are able to cut through the tissue molecules (collagen) of our body.
> The more aggressive a cancer type is, the more of these collagen-digesting
> enzymes it produces. This overshooting production of enzymes that can
> destroy the tissue can be diminished or entirely blocked in a natural way
> by using the amino acids lysine and proline, combined with vitamin C and
> certain other micronutrients. Recently our research firm has established
> that all types of cancer cells studied can be blocked by taking advantage
> of this nutrient synergy in blocking the action of these enzymes. In Europe
> and America there are already tens of thousands of cancer patients taking
> advantage of this natural way to prevent and treat cancer. Hundreds of
them have already recovered from this disease. This is even more significant,
> considering the fact that, up until now, conventional medicine has
> considered cancer a "death verdict". We have carefully documented many
> cancer patients with x-rays of their lungs, their bones before and after
> this natural therapy. You can actually see the documented success on the
> website of our Foundation
> www.dr-rath-health-foundation.org. Thus I am in the privileged position of
> having contributed to the control of some of today's most common diseases.
> The only question that remains is why is this information not being spread
> worldwide at once? To answer this question we have to talk again about the
> pharmaceutical investment business that is actively fighting any
> breakthrough that allows the eradication of their global disease market.
>

> You are the founder of a new concept of medicine "Cellular Medicine".
Would you explain what Cellular Medicine is and the benefits of its
> implementation?
>
> Today, medicine is divided into different disciplines according to organs
> of the body. The cardiologist takes care of the heart, the gastro of the
> intestine, the orthopedic doctors of bones and hips. This organ-approach
> ignores the facts that health and disease are not determined on the level
> of organs but at the level of the millions of cells that make up these organs
> and the human body. The single most important reason for an impairment of
> cell function and ultimately disease is a lack of bio-energy at the level
> of these cells. The most important bio-energy molecules needed for these
cells to function properly are biocatalysts, small molecules that accelerate the
> chemical reactions in these cells. The most important among these natural
> molecules are vitamins, minerals, trace elements and certain amino acids.
> Cellular medicine is a new field of medicine that applies this knowledge
to the prevention and treatment of today most common diseases. At our
cellular medicine research institute we continue to investigate the specific
need
> for these micronutrients to prevent and correct specific diseases, including
> cardiovascular disease, cancer and infectious diseases. It is already
> visible that medicine in the twenty first century will take advantage of
> the knowledge on a global scale, enabling mankind to largely eradicate itself
> from today's most common diseases, including cardiovascular disease and
> cancer. There is no time to be lost; every person on earth can understand
> this principle without a medical degree. Every health care professional,
> every politician responsible for the health of his people should
> immediately familiarize themselves with these scientific facts and develop
national
> health care programs using this knowledge.
>
> Why do you think that natural treatment and control is better and more
> efficient than traditional pharmaceutical treatment?
>
> The pharmaceutical industry is an investment industry. By its very nature
> it cannot and will not produce drugs that prevent or eradicate diseases,
> because that would eliminate these diseases as a market place for the
> continued use of those drugs. This fact is hard to comprehend and even
> harder to accept. But it is the truth and everyone should know about it.
> Accordingly, 80% of the pharmaceutical drugs currently on the world market
> have no proven efficacy but merely cover symptoms. As a direct result of
> this fact, today's most common diseases, including cardiovascular disease,
> cancer, AIDS and many other diseases, are not contained but rather
continue to spread despite the fact that effective, non-patentable alternatives
are
> available. Students of biology and biochemistry around the world learn
> about the role of micronutrients for the optimum function of the cells.
> Unfortunately, the influence of the pharmaceutical industry on medical
> education worldwide has such a tight grip that, so far, these scientific
> effects have not been applied to solving medical problems. The
preconditionfor the world to enjoy the benefits of natural health treatment is
both,
the acceptance of new scientific effects and the removal of artificial
barriers in medicine that are economically motivated by the pharmaceutical
> investment business with disease.
>

> The late two-time noble laureate Dr. Linus Pauling described your
> achievements as significant. Why did he think that?
>
> Linus Pauling was the only scientist that had received two unshared Nobel
> Prizes. -He received his first Nobel Prize for Chemistry and the second
one for Peace, for his commitment to bringing about the first disarmament
> agreement, the partial nuclear test ban in 1963. Linus Pauling was a giant
> in science during the twentieth century. He had solved the molecular
> structure of countless inorganic and organic molecules. He was the first
to discover the structural properties of proteins (alpha helix) and the first
> genetic disease (single cell anemia). I got to know Linus Pauling more
than twenty years ago when I was a spokesperson for medical students in Germany
> and on the board of the medical students association of the World Health
> Organization (WHO). But our acquaintance at that time was not primarily
> based on science - rather on our common interest to work for peace and nuclear
> disarmament. Years later my own research in the area of cardiovascular
> health had led me to recognize the role of vitamins and I talked to him
> about these discoveries. He immediately recognized the significance of
this discovery and invited me to become the first director of cardiovascular
> research at his institute in California. Linus Pauling and I were more
than scientific colleagues. We shared a common vision for a healthier and more
> peaceful world. Thus, it is not surprising that shortly before his death,
> Linus Pauling stated that there is no doubt that he considered me as his
> successor.
>
> How did the traditional scientific community react to your work and
> research?
>
> New discoveries go through three stages. First they are ridiculed,
secondly they are heavily fought and finally they are considered as
self-evident.
My discoveries in the area of cardiovascular health and cancer are no
> exception. In a medical world where mechanical solutions like bypass
> operations and balloon catheter (angioplasty) are the "solutions" to the
> cardiovascular epidemic and radio-therapy and chemo-therapy the
"solutions" to cancer, the possibility of natural, safe and affordable
prevention and
> control of these health problems was nothing short of a revolution. In the
> area of cardiovascular health it took more than 10 years from the
> publication of my landmark scientific paper "Solution to the puzzle of
> human cardiovascular disease" until a breakthrough in its acceptance. But
> ultimately it came on May 4th 2002. Stanford University, one of the
leading medical schools in the world, invited me to present this breakthrough at
> their symposium organized by the medical school. This invitation already
> reflected the growing public acceptance of our new understanding of
> cardiovascular disease as an early form of the sailors' disease scurvy.
> This presentation summarized for the first time in a leading medical
institution that has been used by the pharmaceutical cartel for more than a
century,
> some of the most fundamental unsolved questions of cardiology: "Why
animals don't heart attacks, but people do"; why we get heart attacks and not
nose
> attacks; why we get hardening of the arteries (arteriosclerosis) but not
of the veins. That is why "venosclerosis" is unknown. The entire presentation
> is documented on the website of our Foundation. Similarly in the field of
> cancer it took about 10 years from the publication of my discovery of the
> natural blocking of cancer through the application of lysine and other
> micronutrients until it was publicly presented. On March 8th 2002, this
> breakthrough was announced on a full page in the world's largest newspaper
> "USA Today". It spread like a bushfire and many institutions and countries
> are taking advantage of this knowledge. While I have not met opposition on
> scientific grounds, the opposition from the pharmaceutical industry is
very fierce. For the last five years their main strategy has been to try to
> outlaw the dissemination of these breakthroughs in the area of natural,
> non-patentable health, in order to protect their multi-trillion dollar
> global investment business with disease.
>
> What was the impact of your books on the pharmaceutical industry?
>
> My book "Why Animals Don't Get Heart Attacks - But People Do" listed for
> the first time the "laws of the pharmaceutical industry". These laws identify
> the pharmaceutical business with disease as an investment industry and not
> a health industry. They unmask the principle of patentability as a principle
> that deviates the research directions of this industry towards making
money not to providing the health needs of the people of the world. This book
> openly blamed the pharmaceutical investment industry for the premature
> death of hundreds of millions of people worldwide over the past decades and
for
> the financial ruin of entire economies. This unmasking of the world's
> largest investment industry as a multi-trillion-dollar fraud scheme was a
> courageous act. When I gave my speech on the 21st June 1997 openly saying
> these things for the first time in history to a crowd of 3.500 people in
> Germany the effect was felt around the world. The only reason why the
> pharmaceutical industry did not retaliate against me is because I
connected this unscrupulous "business with disease" with the largest crimes
against
> humanity committed in the 20th century: the mass murder during the second
> world war. It is a historic fact that the largest European petrochemical
> and pharmaceutical cartel financed Hitler's rise to power 70 years ago. The
> Second World War was primarily a war for the conquest of the natural
> resources in Eastern Europe and Asia. The Nuremberg War Tribunal in
1946/47 established that the Second World War would not have been possible
without
> this petrochemical cartel, called I.G. Farben. As a result of this
> tribunal, I.G. Farben was split into Bayer, BASF and Hoechst and some of its
managers were sentenced for starting a war against international law, mass
murder,
> exploitation and plundering of private and public property in foreign
> countries and other crimes against humanity. The history of the corporate
> background behind the second world war is documented in a book by Josef
> Borkin 'The Crime And Punishment Of I.G. Farben' which is documented on
the website of our Foundation. Thus, from the very onset of my unmasking
> strategy the pharmaceutical industry was on the defensive. Thus, it comes
> as no surprise that they never dared to retaliate or start a lawsuit for
libel and slander. In the meantime, my decade-long efforts to unmask the
> pharmaceutical industry as a multi-trillion-dollar fraud operation have
> been confirmed in a lead article in Europe's largest News weekly "Der
Spiegel".
> This article openly accuses the pharmaceutical industry of fraud,
> deception, risking the lives of people, damaging the economies of countries
around
the world in the magnitude of billions of dollars and of many other
accusations I made over the previous years. It took more than 5 years between my
first
> public tribunal against the pharmaceutical business with disease and the
> large media coverage now confirming these facts. This is no surprise since
> this article also confirms that the pharmaceutical industry is closely
> connected to the highest political decision makers in the world. This
> article also reveals that even now, if a government wants to take action
> against the pharmaceutical business with disease, the US embassies are
> directly intervening on behalf of the US government! I take delight in
> having been a pioneer not only in the area of natural health but also in
> unmasking the pharmaceutical business with disease. The article in "Der
> Spiegel" of March 31, 2003 is the first domino stone that will bring the
> walls of the pharmaceutical industry down within the foreseeable future.
> Other media will follow. And this is good. It simply cannot be that the
> health of millions of people and the economies of the countries of the
> world is sacrificed to a handful of investors who consistently renew
themselves
> by supporting more and more unscrupulous politicians, including the present
> administrations in the United States and Great Britain, with the primary
> purpose to still artificially maintain this multi-trillion-dollar fraud on
> our planet.
>
> Are your books available everywhere in the world?
>
> My books have been translated into more than 10 languages and they are
> available in most languages in printed form. We also offer these books
> online on our website so that everyone interested can read this
information there. We are making every effort to continue spreading this
life-saving
> information for millions of people, including the natural prevention and
> therapy for cardiovascular disease, cancer and other common health
> problems.
> This information is so fundamental that it should be spread worldwide
> immediately. We welcome every newspaper, radio channel, TV station and
> other media who understand the importance of this message and assist in
> disseminating it. The three most prominent books are "Why Animals Don't
Get Attack Heart Attacks - But People Do", describing the breakthrough in the
> area of heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, heart failure,
> irregular heart beat and other cardiovascular problems. The book "Cancer"
> describing the breakthrough in the natural control of cancer. This book
> describes for the first time that cancer is no longer a death verdict. The
> third book I wrote is a documentation of my 10-year long fight against the
> pharmaceutical cartel. It has the title "In The Name Of Mankind".
>

> Why did we not hear about these breakthroughs before?
>
> The answer is obvious. The pharmaceutical industry is not an industry that
> is naturally grown. It was artificially created by investors who, in order
> to make money from diseases, had to block natural, non-patentable medical
> treatments from becoming available throughout the world. At the beginning
> of the 20th century the Rockefeller group already controlled most of the oil
> business in the United States and many other countries. Based on these
> trillions of dollars in revenues, this investment group defined a new
> market place: the human body. The profit or return on this investment was
> dependent on the patentability of the pharmaceutical drugs invented. The
> trillion-dollar profits of this new investment industry were used to
> systematically convert medicine into a pharmaceutically driven investment
> business. Within a few decades, medicine was controlled by these interest
> groups through their influence in the medical schools, in the media and in
> the political arena. One of the primary problems this industry faced was
> the competition from natural health products. Between 1920 and 1935 most of
the vitamins and essential nutrients required for optimum cell metabolism were
> discovered. It was clear to the scientific world that, without these
> essential molecules in cellular metabolism, these cells would not function
> properly and would be the origin of disease. The pharmaceutical investment
> strategists realized that and embarked on a global campaign to block this
> life-saving information from becoming widely available to the people of
the world. But silencing this information was only the first step. Further
> strategic steps to build up the fraudulent pharmaceutical business scheme
> included discrediting health information about these natural,
> non-patentable therapies and eventually outlawing any preventive and
therapeutic
> statements about natural therapies. All of these measures had one purpose
only: to
> protect the pharmaceutical investment industry based on patentable drugs
> that merely cover symptoms from natural, non-patentable therapies that are
> essential for maintaining cellular health. In sharp contrast, the
> scientific facts about natural molecules essential for basic cellular
functions and
> described in the textbooks of biology became a matter of life and death of
> this entire investment business. If diseases could be prevented by
> optimizing cellular health with natural non-patentable molecules this must
> threaten the very basis of the entire pharmaceutical investment business
> with diseases. A disease that is prevented or eradicated is simply no
> market anymore.
>
> Of particular importance is to reflect on the influence of the
> pharmaceutical industry on the medical profession. Through the foundation
> of private medical schools in the United States, including the so-called "Ivy
> League" universities like Harvard, Yale, Mayo Clinic and others, the
> pharmaceutical investment industry simply bought medical opinion
worldwide.
>
> At an increasing rate, the teaching of medical therapies focused on
> pharmaceutical drugs and - at the same time - natural health treatments
> were effectively banned as "outdated". Hardly any doctor graduating from
medical school during the last decades learned that the first Nobel Prize for
the
> role of Vitamin C in cellular metabolism was awarded in 1937. Thus,
> throughout more than half a century, generations of doctors - millions of
> them worldwide - left medical school without any knowledge about the life
> saving role and health benefits of vitamins, minerals and trace elements.
> Everyone can immediately understand the devastating consequences of this
> investment strategy on global human health by looking at the following
> facts. Hardly anyone among the 6 billion human beings living today knows
> that the human body does not produce Vitamin C. Now it has become a
> scientific fact that it is this same vitamin molecule (that is known to
> protect the arteries from the 'sailor's disease' scurvy) that is also the
> primary factor to prevent heart attacks, strokes and other cardiovascular
> health problems. Thus, the simple banning of this life-saving knowledge
> from the medical profession in the interests of the pharmaceutical investment
> industry deliberately created the cardiovascular epidemic, the number one
> health epidemic in the industrialized world as well as in most urban areas
> of the developing world. Hardly any of the people living on earth today
> know that the human body does not produce the natural amino acid lysine, an
> essential building block of proteins. Now it turns out that it is this
> natural molecule lysine that is one of the most important factors in
> preventing cancer cells from spreading in the body. Cancer is the second
> largest epidemic in the industrialized world and the pharmaceutical drugs
> sold during the last month of a cancer patient's life are one of the most
> profitable markets of the pharmaceutical business with disease. Thus, at
> the beginning of the 21st century, mankind is waking up from a nightmare. With
> the dissemination of simple health information about the molecules needed
> for optimum cellular function but not produced by our body, two out of
> three lives in the industrialized world and in threshold countries could have
> been saved. And we also have to realize that the fact that the people of the
> world were 'asleep' for an entire century is not because we are not
> intelligent people. We have to realize that for the deceptive and
> fraudulent pharmaceutical business to work it spends billions of dollars for
deception and to create an artificial façade as 'the benefactors of mankind'. To
> reach that goal this industry has spent twice the amount on 'marketing' that
it
> spent on research. Donald Rumsfeld, the current minister of war of the
> United States has been the chief executive officer of several
> pharmaceutical multinational companies. He received several awards for service
to this
> industry before being appointed to his present position in the Bush
> administration. There is no question that Rumsfeld and the all executives
> of this industry - including the Rockefeller investment group - know these
> facts. They are shaking in their boots that the truth about the
> pharmaceutical business with disease is spreading worldwide like a
> bush-fire. If that happens, their fate is sealed: They will be held
> responsible for the death of millions of people from diseases that could
> have been prevented if not for their deliberate decisions. They know:
> either they take down mankind in a war and a global 'Big Brother' scenario, or
> mankind will take them down. There is no middle way. This is the
background of the current war. This is why they take on the entire planet. For
more
> than a century the multi-trillion dollar pharmaceutical fraud scheme had
as a precondition, the banning of life-saving natural, non-patentable health
> information in the prevention of today's most common diseases. So no one
> should really be surprised that they did just that and that we did not
hear about these breakthroughs before.
>

> But what about the role of the World Health Organization, did it not
> promote nutrition?
>
> The World Health Organization (WHO) was created more than 50 years ago
with the purpose to improve the health of the people worldwide. One of its
first focuses was to disseminate information on nutrition. Together with the
Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) the WHO issued annual 'Joint Reports
on Nutrition' - for about a decade. After that time the pharmaceutical
> investment interests had taken full control of the WHO. From then on it
was converted into its opposite. In 1963, only 15 years after the WHO had been
> founded to serve the people of the world, it had become an instrument of
> the global pharmaceutical cartel. In 1963, a new commission was launched to
> specifically fight micronutrients (vitamins, minerals and amino acids)
from being used to prevent, cure and eradicate diseases. The aim of the
> so-called WHO/FAO "Codex Alimentarius" (nutritional standard) commission was
to
> impose artificial "upper limits" to prevent the people of the world from using
> these natural health components for therapeutic purposes. This commission
> also embarked on a "holy war" against dissemination of natural health
> information related to the proven scientific benefits of these
> micronutrients. Thus the Pharma-Cartel abused the WHO as their global
> instrument to push the first globalization legislation - protectionist
laws to artificially secure the global health monopoly of patented drugs. Thus,
> for the past 40 years, the Organization created to improve the health of
> the people of the world has been abused by the profit interests of a handful
of investors to do exactly the opposite: keep the people of the world
> illiterate about life-saving information to prevent today's most common
> diseases. The publication of my 10-Point-Program "Health for All by the
> Year 2020" at the world summit in Johannesburg in August 2002 marked a turning
> point for this Organization. With more than 100 Heads of State being made
> aware of the fraudulent nature of the pharmaceutical business and the
> alternatives in natural health, the battle to regain the WHO and use it
for the benefit of the people of the world has begun. The developing countries
> from Africa, South America and Asia are leading this historic battle. But
> let there be no mistake. The forces of the pharmaceutical cartel,
> entrenched in the WHO, will not give up voluntarily. The people of the world
have to
> wake up to the fact that the interest groups converting the WHO into its
> opposite are the same interest groups who have forced the war against Iraq
> and the current international crisis on this planet. Thus, the war for
> control of the WHO will be fought with the similar brutality of any
> military war. The comparison is allowed - after all, the victims in both cases
are
> thousands or millions of people. The outcome of this battle for the
control of the WHO is certain: the people of the world, for their own sake and
for
> the sake of generations to come, will win this battle and retake control
of this world body. How long this will take, will lastly depend on the people
> of the world being informed about these developments and telling their
> governments to take action at the national and international level. In the
> meantime it is essential that there are organizations that cannot be
> bought, bribed or influenced in any other way. The Dr. Rath Health Foundation
was
> founded to make a contribution towards this goal.
>
> Can you explain more about the Codex Alimentarius Commission?
>
> Codex Alimentarius is a commission of the WHO and FAO. About half of its
> members are directly or indirectly related to the pharmaceutical industry.
> While Codex Alimentarius addresses a variety of questions related to food
> protection, the vast majority of its time, efforts and resources have been
> wasted in the battle of the pharmaceutical cartel against the
dissemination of natural health information related to vitamins, minerals and
other
> essential nutrients. After my discoveries of the scurvy-heart disease
> connection, the success of my book "Why Animals Don't Get Heart Attacks"
> and after a first attempt to outlaw natural therapies in the USA had failed in
> 1994, the drug companies revitalized "Codex Alimentarius" in 1995. Since
> then they have been leading a vigorous effort to protect the
pharmaceutical business with disease from effective, save, non-patentable
micronutrients.
> This commission now meets every year behind closed doors. Its primary goal
> is to outlaw preventive and therapeutic health statements related to
> vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients. These unscrupulous
> recommendations would be passed on behalf of the pharmaceutical cartel to
> the United Nations General Assembly and recommended to be become binding
> law for all member countries of the United Nations, that is worldwide. This,
at least, is the plan of the pharmaceutical cartel. For the past few years we
> have organized regular protests against the 'Codex'- plans of the
> Pharmaceutical Cartel, including scientific conferences, rallies and
> protest campaigns directed towards the members of the 'Codex' Commission and
the
> governments still supporting it. During the most recent protest campaign
> more than 600 million (!) protest letters reached the governments and
> members of parliaments of the countries still supporting this unscrupulous
> effort. On the eve of the 'Codex' meeting in November 2002 in Berlin we
had a conference of health experts from around the world, including South
> Africa. Not surprisingly it was at this 'Codex meeting', when the official
> delegation of South Africa unmasked for the first time the hypocrisy
behind 'Codex Alimentarius'. To understand the significance of this step the
> following facts need to be clarified:
> No one of healthy mind would support a ban on natural health just like
> that.
> The drug Cartel therefore needed to provide a pretence for the yet
> undecided politicians why they should outlaw natural health therapies. That
pretence
> was the invention of non-existing vitamin side effects. Of course, these
> side effects only exist in the imagination of the pharmaceutical interest
> groups and on the drawing boards of their global PR-machinery. Vitamins,
> minerals and amino acids are the building blocks of life and the body can
> eliminate any surplus of them without any problems. This is in sharp
> contrast to synthetic pharmaceutical drugs. Because they are synthetic,
the body does not know them and this is the reason why almost all
> pharmaceutical drugs are related to severe side effects. According to the
April 15, 1998
> issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association these deadly side

> At the beginning of the third millennium mankind stands at the crossroads.
> On the one hand are the interests of six billion people currently

> continue accepting the yoke of those investment industries forcing wars
and diseases upon us or we liberate ourselves from these burdens and start

> As our fundamental rights we proclaim:
