Trem,

If this is true it could be a warning that the feds will try and shut down any and all food supplement industries eventually. Notice how negative press is slowly creeping its way into the media about such things as Vitamin C. Soon, all of our natural alternative remedies will be available by prescription only... or not at all. God help us....

I am constantly amazed that anyone out in the Cyberbog is not by now fully aware of CODEX.

But, it's too late now, anyway. A brief summary of the decisions made this last two months are:

1. Virtually all of the top 500 dietary aids are now classified as drugs. Only a Medical Franchisee (M.D.) will be allowed to prescribe such dangerous things as Echinacea, Vitamin E, Spirulina, Lecithin, Vitamin C.

2. Even Franchisees are complaining that the "allowed" dosages are silly. They are divided by a factor of 10.

3. Very substantial penalties are already in place for anyone ( MD or not) who cures the top moneyspinners like Cancer, MS, Sugar-Diabetes. Canada leads the way with 15-25 years for trafficking in things like CS. Implementation is late 2005.

4. It will be a catchall situation on providing ANY form of advice "intended to coerce a person into anything claimed to be health beneficial" with very harsh penalties.
