Do you take vitamins / food supplements? Please read

I have only just heard about this, its crazy! I rely on herbal supplements and vitamins as do so many of us, and to be told we might not be allowed to take them as and when needed if this law is passed is outrageous!

Codex Alimentarius is a law designed to hand over the control of natural remedies to the pharmaceutical giants. One more attempt to regulate - with potentially dire consequences. Unless we take this last opportunity and act now we will not be able to buy vitamins or health/nutritional supplements without a doctor's prescription - they will be banned.

You may think this can't happen, you may think "why haven't I heard about this before". The reason is that there are vested interests - giant multinational pharmaceutical companies - and its not in their interest that you know about and oppose this. They and our lawmakers in Europe are banking on public apathy. Despite considerable pressure already exerted our government is still planning to implement this law.

Like many health and safety matters this was started with good intentions, in 1962 by the United Nations, to establish international free trade foods but has become a major threat to our civil liberties and freedom of choice.
