such a way that they're going to remove from the marketplace all of the new dietary ingredients that were introduced after october fifteenth one nine hundred ninety four they've also tr value of nutritional supplement dietary supplement industry is under siege by the f d a drug mob ias do not want the american public to have access to low cost totally safe nutritional supplements that compete with pharmaceuticals the f d a uses stop like tactics when it decides to take action against a watch why you point guard in the raid on rossum involved no less than five government agencies in the past three years there have been at least eight government raids across the u s involving raw dairy the u s food safety and modernization act would give the f d a more money to hire engines and begin arresting small organic gardeners raw dairy farmers people who provide food to local farmers markets taking control of the way in which we choose to manage our own health the f d a is obviously following drug company instructions and that's really the basic problem that we have here in america if they implement all the power they already have we will live in the food fascism world it's almost guerrilla tactics it's very threatening in how our staff and intimidate the process is broken his country are not always approved based on scientific data or proof based on who has the right political connection it's obvious that the food and drug administration should be subjected to a real housecleaning by outraged famil there are many drugs the food and drug administration has approved that are unsafe at least to unsafe for the f d a zone medical reviewers to agree that they should be on the market rather than have confidence that the drug approved by was over five hundred percent and yet the drug company making vioxx covered that information up where there is criminal activity by executives of drug companies they frequently get away with paying a fine and have no major american public if he in my opinion is probably killed more americans and this country than all the wars us has ever fought combined how can it possibly be that a branch or a division of this government is not beholden to the constitution in the relationship between government approved standardized medicine and all the other healing arts we can see a pattern that goes back all the way in i think about fifteen forty parliament passed a law the first medical licensing at it said nobody may practice medicine within the city of london unless they are first examined and approved by the college of physicians and surgeons under the bishop of london and of course it was fifteen forty six it was in the thirty fifth year of the reign of henry the eighth and that charter which was intended stated it was a charter for all times and it applied not just to the realm of england but to the kings other c hence of course that means to the american colonies and those american colonies when they became free independent states adopted the common law of england as our common law all the common law of that of that time is part of our common law unless the legislature explicitly changes it and so the herbalist charter which reviews the history of the relationship between the physicians and the the wise women and the herbalists and the others it's time that we would call  alternative practitioners or as i like to say advanced health care practitioners healers understand the charter and understand that it's part of a very long tradition of healing within the community and that tradition is one  which we are humbled by about one hundred years ago things were really beginning to change in the united states we were changing from an agrarian economy to an industrial economy titans of industry really wanted to be able to control the world financial system as a whole when the rockefeller's took over the allopath of medicine there were many types of medical education in the united states there were homeopathic doctors and there were natural path and doctors who were using natural medicines to heal and they were having very good outcomes once the rockefeller's took over the system they closed down those others and they only promoted the sale of their drugs they promoted surgery and they promoted radiation the rockefeller's were also in charge of the oil industry in the chemical industry and they also made an alliance with a huge german concern called i g pharma which is a big chemical industry in germany and of course in the early part of this century people wrote about some of the terrible things that were happening with the meat packing industry and in the food industry in general that the drugs were big advertise all over cocaine more faded other types of opiates and they were being told that they're even on the label so they forced a labeling there was a lot of mischief going on in the food industry and the f d a was set up to correct that problem they evolved into regulating drugs medical devices and a disappoint they regulate just about anything that goes into the human body and then i'd hundred thirty nine hundred thirty eight you sixty two by dr kennedy at that point the f d a was large the captive of industry the f d a does no clinical testing of drugs itself that relies entirely on submissions made to it by the drug companies this would appear to the average person to be a gross conflict of interest and in fact it is there is a concern right now that the f d a has been influenced by pharma in such a way that they're going to remove from the marketplace all of the new dietary ingredients that were introduced after october fifteenth one thousand nine hundred ninety four and regrettably those are some of the most of the active supplements that americans are now taking we're talking about residue or troll we're talking about you bit one all form of coenzyme q ten there have been substantial improvements made in the quality of dietary supplements drug companies are seeing as they're seeing their profit margins threatened because people can go and use a dietary supplement and lieu of a prescription drug and perhaps get a better benefit with no risk of side effects recently the f d a promulgated  a thing called the new dietary mcgreevy and guidance in the first decade of application of the new dietary ingredient guidance f d a took a rather conservative view of what a new dietary ingredient was they would say oh well if it was in the food supply and you can show that it's in the food supply we will allow you to sell it and not prohibit you from selling it not require you to make a scientific submission well increasingly in the ninety's the f d a took a more restrictive approach increasingly requiring the submission of new dietary ingredients petitions before would allow substance in the market and in expanding its definition of the new diet touring reading keeping more things out of the market as a consequence the purported purpose for the guidance is to help create more safety for consumers out there that are consuming dietary supplements the interesting thing to note is that there have been zero deaths from dietary supplements as long as the c d c has been keeping track supplements are very safe they're based on food congress recognized the state to supplement when they grandfathered all the supplements to date in one thousand and four when they passed the dietary supplement health and education act legislation that governs the regulation of supplements now congress did at that time say any use of laments that were to come into the marketplace would be required to notify f d a so that f d a could keep track of what was happening going forward well ninety percent of the diet of the  has issued a guidance that not only requires notification it goes above and beyond by requiring basically a pre approval a system and puts in place something akin to a food additive program that requires such enormous barriers to entry so to speak that it will eventually according to our analysis by a lot an economics professor john shepherd believe emory it will result in a loss of almost thirty thousand supplements to the american public would cost somewhere between one hundred  fifty thousand dollars to one point two or three million per n d i submission they've all said that an approval of an n t i new dietary ingredient for one  not be transferable to any other company even if it made the same product as a consequence they require every company that sells the very same product to submit a new dietary ingredient titian so there are going to be literally the purpose of that is to try to push him out of business just to make room for a total but obvious bad drugs the american public will be at the total mercy of the pharmaceutical industry if they want a drug that  before they can be used and what is so interesting is that this is right at the heart of the draft guidance itself been that the f d a is now trying to push through congress passed the dietary supplement he education act that legislation basically stated that dietary supplements were to be treated as a food and not tracks and f d a was directed to create some guidelines around that new dietary ingredient notification process but f d a sat on their heels and waited it's been seventeen years and f d a is just now coming out with this draft guidance and f d a has gone very far above and beyond congressional intent in the draft guidance aim of the agency has been to restrict the access of consumers to those products and to limit what can be said about them the f d a tried to circumvent it they didn't like the idea that supplement companies were now able to inform the public about peer reviewed research documenting safety and efficacy of nutritional supplements so you see this rule is calculated by the agency to have a devastating effect be another weapon in their arsenal to take down the dietary supplement industry is cleverly masked with a public safety rationale point of fact the rule doesn't operate to protect public safety so it's i think a very strong strategic plan on their part they're trying to keep this out of the courts because that way and many of those situations and the sections of the guidance they just don't have a leg to stand on a few years ago get basically doesn't require an additional regulation burden for those products that are already safe and effective fear that the dietary supplement industry has is that if the f d a is given the power to restrict americans access to natural new ingredients these are ingredients that people are ingesting as part of their diet for the most part and then when a company extracts that and puts it into a capsule  wants to come in and say well now you get approved was that that safe and effective even though there's no evidence that it's not safe and effective the fear is that the f d a will try to do an end run around all the legal and political victories and been won over the last twenty years and be able to restrict americans from having free access to dietary supplements to nutrition to natural approaches to preventing and treating disease that compete against pharmaceutical interest the food safety modernization act makes the situation of the f d a even worse than it has been up until now the f d a does not have the capacity to figure out how products that are not clearly unsafe or clearly safe should be regulated the a modernization act two thousand and seven gave the f d a unprecedented power over food and gave it a power to ban the interstate commerce and any food which had ever been studied for medical use we fought very hard two more money to hire agents to canvass the countryside cross usa and begin arresting small organic gardeners and begin intimidating raw dairy farmers and intimidating even people growing food in their own yards in their own gardens people who provide food to local farmers markets all of these people are about to be assaulted by a new regulatory wave of intimidation and oppression that is really targeted against those who produce real food in america the idea that we would treat something that's essential as if it were harmful and require that it have all the kinds of double blind placebo controlled studies that underlie drug testing is designed to undermine the health of the public to remove choice for the individual consumer and to take responsibility away from us for taking care of our own health so i think there's a authority is what they've done with all the authority that had up until now and that is to argue that every product that comes on the market should be assumed to be an unsafe product it's old people manufacturing that product prove that the product is in fact safe that's a good standard for something that's intrinsically harmful like a like a drug or you want a food and it is not a good standard for products such as herbs and nutrients which are intrinsically but nine and which are products that have been used for thousands of years and are essential for our health this is a government of tyranny it is a government where the parties that under the constitution are supposed to have the branches of the government that are supposed to have exclusive legislative executive and judicial power and delegated those powers to  elected individuals who are not restricted in their actions by any serious limitation in statutory law or the constitution itself the f d a uses what could reasonably be described as gestapo like tactics that decides to take action against a dietary supplement company or a food company the agency can come in everything that i own of any value and do it without any advance notice to do with weapons out of their holes barge into business that are up against the wall and kick them out of business seize assets so they freeze your bank account seize all the products seize all of the material inside the offices frequently taking everything who futures on paper all files even before a trial on the merits even before i've been convicted of any crime all based on  allegation and they can utterly destroy unlike business they can ruin my client relationship and they can make it impossible for me to afford my defense against charges that may be civil and criminal and could result in a incarceration for as long as a life hundred ninety three they raided jonathan wright's clinic the pioneering doctor who's made so many of the breakthroughs that we know now the be safe and effective available to the american public he was so successful medical practice that the f d a had to take action because he was getting results that they weren't seeing with f d a approved pharmaceuticals he was selling injectable vitamins he had a number of different compounds that simply weren't in the a approval directory and they shut him down for a period of time but there was somewhat of a problem there his patients were getting benefits and it resulted in a citizen's uprising and the result was the passage in  therapeutic effects you will like we have a rule awakenings first you will receive a warning letter united states attorney will then go into a federal court having acquired information frequently from a clandestine nonpublic investigation by the f d a office of criminal investigations then that information goes to a judge to tell the judge that you're a threat to public health they present an affidavit from an f d a inspector that says that you're selling a substance that  approve new drug maybe nothing more than vitamin c he issues a warrant she usually a search warrant and a seizure warrant one of the principle outrages occurred in the out early one nine hundred thirty s that turns out that if one looks up the archives of the los angeles times one will find that there's a celebre torrie dinner held in los angeles a par non doctor by the name of royal rife and the celebrant tory dinner was attend faculty members from the university of southern california all of whom had signed affidavits to the effect that cancer patients they had sent to royal rife treated by royal rife with energies had all been cured all right what happened why is cancer such a problem now if royal rife could curate a law suit was instituted against mr wright the lawsuit dragged on all the way in his place that manufactured his quip mysteriously burned down i two thousand and eight i had a very long and it's back to that my office and that was it lasted like three to half days  and their research on the benefits of cherries in terms of treating gout i believe so f d a looked at that website there were no health claims on that website but it is a link to another website that discussed scientific research and f d a determined that that was sufficient to be making an illegal health claim f d a went after the cherry growers literally with guns blazing knock down their doors forced them to sign a consent decree and agreed never to share any information about the benefits of cherries again at the risk of all sorts of legal proceedings and at essentially loss of their company when it wants to censor someone from speaking out about cancer or when it wants to exterminate  company that is providing nutritional supplement to the marketplace the f d a will stop at nothing it will violate laws it will violate civil rights it will violate due process it will commit international crimes i didn't realize until it was to protect citizens from businesses and businesses from arbitrary and capricious regulatory activity it states clearly that businesses that are regulated by the federal government must have a clear understanding of in alternative medicine if you're involved simply in producing a healthier more natural food f d a doesn't always like that because the processed food companies they don't want the competition f d a will respond by literally sending in armed officers to raid the makers of healthy natural products who don't have the wherewithal to defend themselves the major producers dairy producers lobbied the food and dr administration to rid the marketplace of an emerging new competitive threat from organic farmers and to eliminate this threat they did with many many large companies do they and reached their k street lawyers on regulatory agencies and on capitol hill and the upshot of that was the adoption by the food and drug administration of a rule that categorically prohibit yes the interstate transportation ship in interstate commerce what's going on over there to police have nothing better to do when l a then raid organic food stores well the los angeles times broke this story and what's shocking about this story is that police officers are going into this grocery store at the co op organic raw food store guns drawn and we put this up on surviving the live t v and it's basically created a firestorm on the internet people are really really shocked that the police and the district attorney don't have anything better to do but to wrastle local co operatives you know engaging in sharing food that the agency has become much more dracon an in defense of these economic interests from the large dairies what they have done is they have a national systematic campaign of enforcement going after raw milk producers coordinating with state officials and doing these raids and this approach is being used all across the united states so the f d a maliciously is actively working against the idea that we should have access to really healthy foods so that we could become healthy human beings the food and drug administration has been quick to go after the producers of pomegranates cherries any product that is in any way associated with  communicates that information to american consumers and the f d a and the federal trade commission become involved the federal trade commission goes after them for deceptive advertising to destroy them because they had the audacity to health made arguments against proves that against cranberries all of these things that people in their common sense could use for their benefit the f d a is putting bears up in front of the woman growers are not permitted to tell you about the benefits of walnuts the people who manufacture nutrients are not permitted to tell you what the nutrients do in a clear and unambiguous and truthful method they ban absolutely the right to make treatment claims for any non drug product and in this way they keep people largely ignorant of the point of sale so that they are dependent upon drugs as their only means of achieving a therapeutic outcome even though the overwhelming scientific literature supports the conclusion that food fundamentally influences our health and influences our ability to overcome disease if you tell the public that your food has these kind of health benefits that food then transforms into a drug and since the f d a has not approved that food as a drug for that indication it's an unapproved drug the f d a doesn't want you to know that foods like oranges and celery have anti cancer elements or that you can drink raw broccoli and actually prevent breast cancer tumors or prostate cancer tumors especially if you combined it with other nutrients but the truth is health is available in abundant intensive form and diseases go away when the body gets what it needs at every level and one of the ways that it needs to cure itself is intensive nutrition selling of humans for vile are immense and in a variety of unthinkable in human activities fritz germy year after he was released from prison called together pharmaceutical executives whom he had worked with and they asked the united nations to take over the world's food supply as a way of moving their world domination agenda forward the united nations said what a good idea codexes mandate is to promote world trade and promote safe oftentimes what is written in the law books and what's really happening on the side instead we have an agency which is now controlled by the worst of the crony corporatist interests the worst case scenario for codex alimentarius if it were to be implemented in the united states would be for the almost complete suppression of vitamin mineral supplements in this country that is all of the high potency all of the great variety of dietary supplements that we see would be no longer on the market instead what you would see is just more low potency vitamins fred flintstone kind of vitamins nothing that would really help a person in terms of the f d a is involved is what are they doing on the international stage and of course within the food environment the the international food is basically a tickle a forum that the f d a gets its chance to have input into systems that govern the way in which food will be controlled and the trade in food will be managed and how the consumers of foods will be protected what is interested me over the years and attending meetings is the f d a is one of the major controllers of policy whatever the united states wants pretty much codex goes along with and what does the united states want the united states wants what big guy great big supposed to do but in effect what they're doing is giving a free pass to a lot of the industry to push the use of poison through people who were side in europe and frankly other countries in the world where pharmaceutical interest have had so much power that they're able to raise the potency of dietary supplements down to levels that are so low that the supplement no longer has any efficacy what americans have free access to are  available to europeans there is no doubt that the move by codex to put maximum permissible upper limits on nutrients that can be traded internationally and that are permitted in food is a genocidal maneuver those levels are below the levels necessary to prevent the chronic deficiency disease of a variety of nutrients that all of us need if day united states were to sign on to code x once they've gotten to the end of their process in terms of determining values of supplements that are going to remain available that impacts the r t a as and the level so for example you may only get you know enough beta carotene that you would get in half a carrot you know as opposed to the much larger amounts that we all need to stay healthy i take ten thousand international units of vitamin d three the level permitted by codex is ten that's a thousand fold difference if i believe that my body requires ten thousand return national units of vitamin d three as suggested strongly by numerous research studies why should i not be permitted to have that information codex says that that information has to be kept from me why should i not be permitted to have access to it on the shelves harm international units of vitamin d three per day unacceptable and unavailable indeed illegal daily reference nails can very easily turn into upper li the f d a website and say look we understand that there are a lot of concerns about codex but don't you worry we would never impose it in terms of our own national trade we would only have to pose it when we were to that it would harmonize with international standards even though was not yet promulgated so codex even if they hadn't finished its work would become the standard for all standards in the united states codex itself codex alimentarius commission in its own strategic planning statement they put out these booklets and they've had two or three own federal regulation it is indicated some years ago that it intends to harmonize american law to that of codex that of international law and we believe that if the u that compete with them because what do they do when they're faced with competition they either did it in the marketplace or they do what the time honored tradition is you run to the government you get laws and monopolistic rules and regulations industrialists are faced with that kind of pushback they step back every time simply pointing out the illegality of the  actions of these regulatory agencies affects nothing we need to put pressure on our lek did officials in congress and in the white house to put restra upon the regulatory agencies that's the only thing that will save us citizens even if they don't know this we have the ability to pass around laws in large numbers of municipalities and counties we have the ability to fire these corrupt politicians it's called recall these things are happening it's not a question of whether we're debating about whether people have sold the country down the river in order to benefit themselves they have done it and we're seeing a situation in which we form right now is really essential well now there's a series of bills that would literally change health and food freedom and justice in this country to important to remember that there are people in congress are willing to challenge the public has got to keep their congressman reminded they have to remind our congressmen are not going to tolerate what legislation being passed or f d a rules being put into a fact that nih them access to their dietary supplement it's an ongoing battle it just doesn't stop with one victory basically you have legislation by default downsize the government it is for the procedures that needs to be a bed so that the final final application of any new regulation needs to be actually approved by the actual vote of congress what we need is a regulatory system where the drug manufacturers are penalized both in terms of fines and in terms of responsible people going to jail actually take these executives from drug companies to court we actually require that drugs are new drugs a more effective than ordered drugs and when we have some nutritional fact interest that play a key role in the prevention of diseases that government should step in and finance research the move it needs to get better organized the f d a they've got teams they're all organized they got all this information and everyone else is disorganized because they're isolated here or there and they don't communicate as those central battle to plan a counter attack against this we're going to have a second revolution down the road but we need to start getting organized and very strategic about it right now two sectors of the movement need to come together one of them is the alternative health sector the people who see very closely how big pharma and the f d a are a serious threat to public health to our survival and the others are that it's the movement for alternative food and farming once we come together we have millions of people we have the capacity to and act around laws we have the capacity if we need to raise millions of dollars and statewide campaigns consumers have to let their voice be heard so that the hundreds of billions of dollars that the drug companies are in every single year does not allow them to perpetuate a monopoly on the health care system i'm a lawyer i'm used to the courtroom and to be able to win a case of people lend and show public support is just one of the best feeling anything that is making the system work and we need help we all need to come together and increase our ranks because we really need to  that those rights are protected once again our country was founded to protect the constitution the bill of rights they did you give them the mechanism to where a president and a congress can merely pass a law that is more powerful than the bill of rights of the constitution no they said you had to jump through hoops you have to amend the constitution to change it which we all know was probably a ten year process at the most they made it they wanted to make it difficult to do that and yet we blindly now i passing laws that that render the constitution the bill it's worthless documents and i feel vats where the trouble comes in you're not following the official documents of how our country used to run and if you don't do that then what do you stand for there's a really long answer why do you sell your why do you sell the rights why do you aband this country well you do it because you're a traitor because you value yourself more than country because you value your on and on the future more than you do the welfare
