CODEX: Fact Sheet Update
Copyright 2004 by http://www.organicgreens.us and Loring Windblad. This article may be freely copied and used on other web sites only if it is copied complete with all links and text intact and unchanged except for minor improvements such as misspellings and typos.
My friend Linda sent me the following “Heads up” regarding the CODEX and its status in Canada. How it fares in the US remains to be seen but there is hope in that when then President Bill Clinton tried to bring it in in the early 90’s it was defeated by the Gray Panthers – the retirees – who showed Billy C “where the power really was”!
But, for now and in Canada, “We have won”! There will be no $60 price tags on 30-pill bottles of vitamin C at a max 500 iu’s each – at least not in the near future. Nor for other “health food related vitamin and mineral products”.
Here’s what I received over the Internet this morning from Linda:
Good news! Linda http://www.medicalbotanyresearch.com/
-----Original Message-----
The Natural Health Products Directorate has heard from many concerned individuals regarding misinformation on Codex. Because vitamins and minerals are considered natural health products in Canada, Codex will not apply in this country. For more information, please go to our Web site for the latest Health Canada Fact Sheet on Codex: http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hpfb-dgpsa/nhpd-dpsn/codex_fact_sheet_e.html
If you have already downloaded one or both of the CODEX articles I have had posted here, please discontinue its use (keep it in your files for reference, however) and update it with this article.
And remember, we must remain eternally vigilant re: CODEX because there is no mention of herbal food supplements above.
