Attorney General Loretta Lynch wages total assault against nutritional supplements to protect pharma monopolies

by J. D. Heyes, Natural News:

The Food and Drug Administration has historically been the one federal agency that has wreaked havoc on the nutritional supplement industry, imposing rules and regulations that hamper, harass and strangle supplement manufacturers and sellers.

Now the Justice Department is joining the fray, as noted by the Alliance for Natural Health USA (ANH-USA), an advocacy group that promotes sustainable health through various natural means, including through the use of nutritional supplements.

In recent days, the group said, Attorney General Loretta Lynch released a video about supplements for National Consumer Protection Week (a quick read of her bio shows that she’s a Harvard-educated lawyer, but there are no medical qualifications listed in her resume, so what makes her an expert in nutritional supplements is a bit of a mystery).

Since she obviously is no expert on this subject, we have to assume that she’s relying on others for her information – or, as ANH-USA said in an action alert, “she must be relying on distortions and untruths she has been fed by other agencies of the government such as the FDA and Centers for Disease Control.”

For example, the group noted, Lynch, in her video, warns consumers against “ingesting substances whose safety and efficacy are not guaranteed” via an FDA study – as if this biased agency is supposed to be the gold standard for nutritional research or otherwise not compromised by presidential (read donor) politics.
