Sign the Petition:Government Stay out of my Vitamin Choices!
September 20, 2011 | Life Coaching, News
On July 1, the US Food and Drug Administration issued draft guidance for complying with the New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) notification protocols required by the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA)—seventeen years late.
The biggest problem is that this guidance will turn a notification system into an approval system—a terrible precedent that will utterly cut off the supply of nutritional supplements. It will also create such huge barriers for supplement manufacturers that it will be much more difficult and expensive to produce them. But of course, that means consumers would either have to pay much more for nutritional supplements, or else risk not being able to buy them at all if the manufacturer deems them too expensive to produce. Some of the natural supplements you take today will be yanked of the shelves…
The FDA has extended the period for you to protest this law until September 30.

FDA: You have so many things to do that you are not doing such as INSPECTING meat packing plants, inspecting food processing plants for pathogens, de-listing drugs that are harmful such as those in all vaccines! DO YOUR JOB and leave me to choose my supplements.
