Hi all,
Please excuse the off-topic post, but this is really urgent.
If you work out regularly like me, or just want to be able to use your
right to take nutritional supplements to stay healthy you need to take
action in the next several days.

Tyranny over natural health supplements iminent: May 29 ACT NOW!
http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=55403
and

The FDA is about to promulgate* a rule whereby all natural
supplements and substances, including water in some cases, will
become regulated drugs which you will be able to obtain only by
prescription from an allopathic doctor
(an M. D.) Your right to treat yourself, take what you want when
you want, to control your own body in this way will be violated.
This is quite an emergency. We need to call our Congresspersons
and Senators quickly to stop this--and it absolutely has to be
stopped. FDA also has a comment period until May 29; the phone number
is 1-800-216-7331.
The case docket number is 2006D-0480; it should be mentioned when
calling.
There is also a comment form at:
http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/oc/dockets/comments/COMMENTSMain.CFM?EC_DO\
CUMENT_ID=1451&SUBTYP=CONTINUE&CID=&AGENCY=FDA
All individual choice and natural treatment options will be gone
if this rule goes into effect. The supplement industry that millions
depend on for natural health options will go out of business almost
overnight.
The supplements available then will only be ones made by
pharmaceutical companies, and will likely be of extremely poor quality.
You can get contact info for your Reps. and Senators at
www.house.gov and www.senate.gov .
Even if the rule goes into effect, Congress can pass a law
overturning it at any time, so it's still very much worth
contacting your representatives in Washington.
*Promulgation (of executive branch rules): an unconstitutional
process where Congress long ago illegally delegated its lawmaking
power to executive branch agencies, such as the FDA, which issue
regulations having the force of law.
The legislative power was granted to Congress in the Constitution,
not the Executive Branch, which the FDA is a part of. Do not limit
your response to the unconstitutional "comment" to the FDA!
