Nutrition And Hiv: Loosing Rights to Choose Dietary Suppleme Posted: 11-02-04 12:48pm
Nutrition and hiv: loosing rights to
choose dietary supplements!
Are you aware you’re loosing your rights
to choose? Have you noticed your choices
of natural health products for optimizing
your health are disappearing?
Why? Because of legislation passed by
european union (eu) directive on dietary
supplements and the fact that other
countries are bound to the rules and laws
of the world trade organization.
In the early years of the hiv and aids
epidemic, there was no treatment. I was
witness to and learned from people who
were using vitamins, minerals, herbs and
botanical supplements to combat illness
and/or boost their immune system. When
the pharmaceutical drug azt was first
introduced as a treatment for hiv and
aids, instead I chose vitamin supplements
as a means to boost my immune system and
stay healthy. I did not take hiv/aids
medications for 13 years, out of the 20
years I have been infected!
It wasn’t until 1997, I first realized the
threat the codex alementarius posed.
Throughout the years I have watched
closely, signed petitions and written to
the canadian government expressing my
opposition to the german delegation’s
proposal to the world health
organization’s codex alementarius, the
committee on nutrition and foods for
special dietary uses.
I believed then, as I do now that if
regulations are put into place, my rights
as a consumer of nutritional supplements
will be jeopardized. Dietary supplements
which promote my well-being will become
more costly and harder to obtain, and no
supplements will be available for
therapeutic or preventative uses without
prescriptions. Dosages will have minimal
amounts with higher costs!
By august of 2005, 5,000 products will
disappear?
An imminent threat of being robbed of the
right to choose!
Fight to keep our supplements!
We are not only ill informed but
governments around the world are making
these deliberate legislative decisions
without informing the general public! The
mainstream media as well has avoided
coverage of this legislation!
That being said, you can look to the
internet for all the details on how this
legislation has been taking place, and get
involved!
