You can still send your comment to the FDA on their latest attempt to take away our vitamins and supplements! We have a very narrow window of opportunity to stop their master plan cold in its tracks!

PLEASE say your piece in your OWN words… a “form letter” is not as effective. Here’s what I said:
“Docket: 2006D-0480 – Draft Guidance for Industry on Complementary and Alternative Medicine Products and Their Regulation by the Food and Drug Administration; Availability Temporary Comment Number: 118596
It is up to the individual consumer to decide what they want to use to enhance their health. Herbs, minerals, vitamins and supplements are simply put, ‘food.’ A government agency should not be able to decide what foods I choose to eat, nor should they be allowed to decide what vitamins I can take, or how much. It should be an individual right. My body, my decision. I am the person most responsible for my own health, not the government, not a doctor, not a nutritionist. I should be allowed to make my own decisions. This is what basic health freedom is about!”
I can’t say it strongly enough… PLEASE tell them what you think NOW!
This is what I sent:
Your guidance document states that “In the United States, the practice of CAM has risen dramatically in recent years.” The reason for the rise in use is that people are waking up to what conventional medicine is doing to them. We Americans pride ourselves in having the freedom to choose that which is best for ourselves. We do not need a government nanny telling us that we do not know what is good for us. I do not understand how an agency that claims it is regulating food and drugs “for our own good” can question the value of nutrients that are inarguably vital for health and well being (vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, amino acids, proteins, prebiotics and probiotics) and yet approve drugs that have been shown to cause irreparable harm and even death (Vioxx and Celebrex just to start with). With your poor track record for safety, I would prefer you keep your hands of CAMS. If you start regulating CAMS, our freedom to choose what is best for us would be eliminated and the health and well being of our citizens will be in grave danger. I am asking you to leave things well enough alone. Thank you.
Well said! Thanks for telling them what you think!
