:Will the Codex shut down world health freedom?

In August 2005 the EU Food Supplements Directive (FSD) will ban natural vitamins such as mixed tocopherols (natural vitamin E), carotenoids and b-12 methylcobalamin, all forms of sulphur, boron, vanadium, silicon and most trace elements, the most readily absorbed and safest forms of calcium, magnesium, zinc, selenium, chromium and molybdenum. It will severely limit the doses of vitamins and will remove all high-dose products from the market. It will include future restrictions on nutrients such as fatty acids, amino acids, enzymes, probiotics, phytonutrients, etc. The directive will dramatically limit future innovation in the supplements industry, and seriously impact retail outlets, complementary practitioners and consumers who choose to take responsibility for their own health and let food be their medicine.

The draconian EU Directive is to be used as the blueprint for establishing international dietary supplement laws at Codex, which our government unlawfully has made us part of. Codex will outlaw or severely restrict virtually everything millions of us have grown accustomed to using safely every day. National borders don't mean much anymore; we are witnessing the rapid unification of the world into a new global government with Europe at the helm. When the World Trade Organization (WTO) was given teeth to enforce international trade laws in the early 1990s, all WTO member nations agreed to harmonize their trade laws to new international laws so every nation operates by the same set of standards. Since then, every single ruling that the WTO has made has gone against the environment, against the public health, against consumer rights, against labor rights, and against human rights.

Germany, the largest pharmaceutical manufacturing nation on earth, dominates the EU which hosts the Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods For Special Dietary Use, and is leading the charge to railroad our dietary supplement laws into international harmonization. The European Union is the blueprint by which our would-be rulers intend to form a global totalitarian state. What they're doing with the EU is their first project; they're trying to make and control similar regional trading blocks all over the world. For example, they're trying to create the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) through which they're trying to harmonize the laws between Canada, the U.S., Mexico, and Central and South America.

Once a Codex vitamin law is finalized, it will supercede any member country's supplement laws. The only way for a country to truly protect its vital interest on this and other matters is to get out of the U.N. and the WTO entirely.

In Hawaii, we are developing a land-based spiritual community to be able to grow food and medicine for our survival and to serve in healing. We participate in the Reinstated Kingdom of Hawaii and the Kingdom of Heaven, neither of which is tied to the U.N. or W.T.O.
