How To Commit Nutritional Anarchy! Resistance Through Food Self-Sufficiency

Once upon a time, if we felt we needed to, we could go to the pharmacy or department store, select a bottle of vitamins, and feel pretty confident about the actual contents of the bottles.
Nowadays, real vitamins are so hard to track down that they might as well be on the endangered species list. In fact, most of what is sold as “vitamins” in the United States actually contains toxic ingredients and nutritional content that isn’t readily bio-available. Just going to the drug-store and buying one of the brightly colored bottles off the shelf may actually be worse for your health than being bereft of the nutrient. And matters may soon get even worse, as the US government “harmonizes” with an overbearing set of rules called Codex Alimentarius.
Before spending your hard-earned money on candy-flavored chewables or much-advertised over-the-counter vitamin imposters, do some research.
In 2013 Sayer Ji, Wake Up World contributing writer and founder ofGreenMedInfo.com, wrote about the hazardous chemicals found in a popular brand of children’s vitamins in his articleTop U.S. Brand of Children’s Vitamins Contains Aspartame, GMOs & Other Hazardous Chemicals:
“Kids vitamins are supposed to be healthy, right? Well then, what’s going on withFlintstones Vitamins, which proudly claims to be “Pediatricians’ #1 Choice”? Produced by the global pharmaceutical corporation Bayer, this wildly successful brand features a shocking list of unhealthy ingredients, including: Aspartame, Cupric Oxide, Coal tar artificial coloring agents (FD&C Blue #2, Red #40, Yellow #6), Zinc Oxide, Sorbitol, Ferrous Fumarate, Hydrogenated Oil (Soybean) and GMO Corn starch.”
“[However] on Bayer Health Science’s Flintstones product page designed for healthcare professionals they lead into the product description with the following tidbit of information: ‘82% of kids aren’t eating all of their veggies. Without enough vegetables, kids may not be getting all of the nutrients they need.’ The implication? That Flintstones vitamins somehow fill this nutritional void.”
Unfortunately it gets even worse than the deception waged by Fred, Barney, Betty, and Wilma…
With the approach of a world governed by the Codex Alimentarius standards of foods, food production and food safety, natural supplements will become regulated to the point that you will no longer be able to acquire a therapeutic amount without taking nutritionally pillaged vitamins by the handful. In the United States, the FDA is in charge of implementing these standards and over the next two years, with the Food Safety Modernization Act, they will be doing just that. According to a Natural News article by Dr. Gregory D’Amato, the following standards are on their way of being implemented to allow the US to “harmonize” with Codex:
* All nutrients (vitamins and minerals) are to be considered toxins/poisons and are to be removed from all food because Codex prohibits the use of nutrients to “prevent, treat or cure any condition or disease”…
* All nutrients (e.g., CoQ10, Vitamins A, B, C, D, Zinc and Magnesium) that have any positive health impact on the body will be deemed illegal under Codex and are to be reduced to amounts negligible to humans’ health.
Soon legitimate vitamin supplements will not be readily available – only the toxic Big Pharma options will be sold. Because of this, it is imperative that we figure out how to provide proper nutrition for ourselves naturally.
An article by American lawyer, author and activist Alfred Lambremont Webre suggests that once Codex is fully implemented, most vitamins and nutritional supplements will require a prescription.
Drug companies can exploit this process by trying to patent common dietary ingredients as drugs before supplement companies have an opportunity to submit their NDI notifications. Once a drug company investigates an ingredient for drug purposes and publishes their findings, the ingredient can no longer be used in supplements.
This has happened before – it happened with the pyridoxamine form of vitamin B6 we mentioned above. In other words, what was once a supplement available to consumers at low cost will now be an expensive prescription-only drug, if it is available at all. (And it’s not only the drug that costs more: you’ll need to pay your doctor for an office visit just to get the prescription!)
The draft guidance also states that a synthetic copy of a supplement constituent, or an extract of an herb or other botanical, is not considered a dietary ingredient at all (much less an NDI). Isn’t this good – isn’t it better not to be an NDI? No. If the FDA says it is not an NDI, that means they are saying it can only be sold as a drug – period. This could knock out a number of important supplements currently sold.
The guidance discusses at length the evidence required for a notification (approval) – and the requirements are extensive, including a strong recommendation to include human studies. We sometimes forget that human studies, in addition to being very costly, do not always fit supplements.
