The EU Food Supplements Directive

As of 1st August 2005 The EU Food Supplements Directive bans 300 of the roughly 420 vitamin and mineral forms used and marketed in Europe and demonstrated to be safe.The EU Directive came into force in July 2002 and the UK Government was required by British and EU law to implement it by the end of July 2003. This was done by a set of food supplement regulations approved by the House of Commons. The House of Lords voted against this legislation and the public are against it.“If Labour had voted the way their constituents wanted then the legislation would not have gone through” John Redwood MP. This legislation destroys freedom of choice. In the face of public opposition the government has forced it through. Protect health freedom worldwide.Who benefits from this legislation ? Who loses by it ? Overwhelmingly the pharmaceutical companies benefit from it. They don't like it when people can cure themselves of their ailments with a few pennyworth of vitamins and minerals, which they cant patent. It disrupts their money cycle: which works to this formula: find a substance that doesn't cure an illness, but can be patented, to suppress the symptoms. The customer doesn't get better and so requires his/her symptom suppressor long term. By and by they develop side effects from having their symptoms suppressed by toxic chemicals, and they become a customer for more chemicals to suppress the symptoms of the side effect. A nice little long term earner preying on the chronic sick.

Who loses ? Many health based firms will go out of business,the Pharmaceutical Companies will profit again by picking up some of the alternative business to which they will add their own patented nasties. Many people who had maintained their health with natural vitamins and minerals will become ill. And no these vitamins and minerals, aren't in our food any more. The mineral content of our vegetables has roughly halved over the last 50 years. Many foods are irradiated, not very fresh or microwaved so the vitamin content cannot be guaranteed. “21st Century man requires more vitamins and minerals to deal with modern pollution and stress, rather than half the amounts iron age man had.

What do the minerals and vitamins do specifically, that makes the pharmaceutical companies want them banned? Ask yourself first what are the major life threatening illnesses of this age:

• Heart Disease
• Cancer
• Diabetes

To cure or prevent Heart Disease you need : Magnesium, Vitamin C, Vitamin E and Calcium. To cure/prevent Cancer you need Vitamin C, Lysine, Selenium, Magnesium and Zinc To cure/prevent Diabetes you need The correct balance of healthy oils, broad spectrum minerals and elimination of junk foods and junk fat(margarine)and sugar,and to eliminate aspartame which causes diabetes.

To manage schizophrenia you need Vitamin C, Niacin, B6, Magnesium and Zinc. To manage PMT you need Magnesium, B6 and Calcium.

The more the public become aware that the healthy option for avoiding the major killers of the century is eating healthily and taking the right minerals, the less business the Pharmaceutical companies will have marketing their patented symptom suppressors. Why would your government be so stupid as to do this, just because they have been lobbied by the multinational pharmaceutical companies ? The people who own the pharmaceutical multinationals are the same ones who own the big oil and the arms industry, and if they don't mind causing wars to get the oil and sell their arms, it is naïve to think that all they want from their pharmaceutical companies is to take a small profit while curing the world of its ills. These people “the Illuminati Elite” are quite open about their plans to reduce the world population from 6 billion to 1 billion, and these people who own the world's oil, banks, pharmaceutical companies and press control your government and own the EU.

Don't worry if you are upset by all this...the government will still let you poison yourself by stuffing your teeth full of mercury, give yourself cancer, brain tumours and epilepsy by using aspartame and nutrasweet, and encourage you to destroy your thyroid and give yourself cancer, gum disease and bone disease with fluoride. So much for their concern that you could harm yourself with herbs and vitamins...just stay clear of doctors and you will have avoided one of the major causes of death today. In “Death By Medicine” Null and Dean draw attention to the American statistics for the leading causes of death in the USA in 2001: heart disease 699,697,for cancer 553,251, while for medical interventions 783,936 making Doctors more deadly than Cancer. I remember that years ago it was noted that when doctors went on strike the death rate went down.

How does this affect you, if you are a healthy junk food eater who has never touched a vitamin in your life, and are happy to pop whatever junk your doctor and the pharmaceutical companies pass your way? You should still give this subject your attention, because millions of people across Europe voted against this Directive, their interests were ignored to the extent that they were not even allowed one representative to argue their case, but the pharmaceutical lobby were not shut out, and the experts used were not free from links to the Pharmaceutical Industry. Demonstrating beyond a doubt that the EU is corrupt and has no interest in the rights of the Individual,doesn't know the meaning of the word Democracy and is a Fascist Corporatocracy as defined by Mussolini: “Fascism should be more appropriately called 'Corporatism'because it is a merger of state and corporate power”. Though massively powerful and adept at lobbying our governments and owning an enormous amount of the wealth of the world, Multinational Corporations pay very little tax, the burden of which falls on the ordinary man whose interests are listened to less and less by their so-called representatives who appear to have totally forgotten the meaning of the phrase “No Taxation Without Representation.”
