Nutritional Supplements Under Attack and Your Right to Health Freedom

Copyright © John Soulliere

After weeding through tons of “the sky is falling” types of comments regarding supposed attacks on nutritional supplements, I have isolated three main and real attacks on our health freedom.

Health food and supplements are a huge threat to the pharmaceutical industry. Healthy people give little or no money to drug companies. Nutrition and health companies are competition to the Pharmaceutical companies.A study released in May 2004 from the National Institutes of Health showed that 1/3 of all American adults use some form of alternative therapy, spending tens of billions annually.

Those of us who sell nutritional products know this. Americans now spend more on complementary and alternative types of products and therapies than they do on conventional health care professionals. This document has no doubt been seen by the pharmaceutical companies; which is why they have escalated their attack on health freedom.

Let me explain how this happened – it’s important.

A grassroots movement is one that is started and continued “by the common people” instead of by politics and businesses. The Health Freedom grassroots movement came about because people did not like the options they were being given by conventional medicine - options like drugs, surgery, amputation, chemotherapy. People decided to look for “alternative” choices. Those alternative choices, such as nutrition, herbs, chiropractic care, raw fruit and vegetable juices, etc., were much more palatable.

The Health Freedom grassroots movement has continued to grow to where now 1/3 of adults in the USA are using some form of alternative therapy.

The drug companies will not “roll over” and let this happen without a fight. They are using all resources available to them – money, media and political contacts. But NEVER forget that this started and can be won as a grassroots movement - as long as those that are part of the movement actually fight for their rights.
