TOTAL INFORMATION ANALYSIS

Tuesday, November 13, 2007

An email dispatch from Dr. Rima Laibow of Health Freedom USA follows. Dr. Laibow is reporting on efforts of international bureaucrats to crack down on nutrition. She sends this stunnign expose' of Dr. Rolf Grossklaus, Chair of CCNFSDU (Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses:

"Rolf Grossklaus has a bad foot. He has admitted to taking illegal substances to help it heal: Boron, Vanadium (along with possibly legal doses of Calcium - legal, that is, IF the dose he is taking is low enough to satisfy the European Food Supplements Directive, a Codex-Compliant limitation of types and doses of nutrients used in Europe). You see, when I asked him what the problem was he said that he had apparently injured his ankle while playing with his 5 year old grandson. It is nice to know that such a warm, cuddly side exists, of course. When he cruelly and callously dismisses and humiliates people in public that's sort of hard to see.

Anyway, he told me that an MRI showed some damage and now he was in a walking cast to immobilize the foot. Nutritional physician to nutritional physician, I said to him, "I assume you are taking boron, vanadium and calcium to speed bone healing." and he answered, "Yes".

Nothing very unusual there in the US, of course, where nutrients are foods and no upper limits can be set.

But we are in Europe, land of the Codex-compliant European Food Supplements Directive where boron and venadium are not permitted and high dose nutrients are, likewise, forbidden.

So consider that for a moment!

Rolf Grossklaus, MD,:


The man with specialty training in nutritional medicine


The man who has driven home the false and dangerous (but pharma phriendly) idea that nutrients are toxins and should be treated that way via the toxicology tool called "Risk Assessment"


The man who runs a company which performs Risk Assessment for profit, mandating doses so low that they have no discernible impact on anyone


The man who pushed through Codex the Vitamin and Mineral Guideline (ratified in Rome, July 4, 2005) which states that their maximum permitted doses are "Upper safe limits of vitamins and minerals ... established by scientific risk assessment",

Rolf Grossklaus, MD, says that he is taking nutrients banned by the European Food Supplements Directive, lifted from the shelves of Europe. And they are not very important here in the EU anyway because, as the European Food Supplements Directive says, "Only vitamins and minerals found in, and consumed as part of, the diet should be allowed to be present as food supplements although this does not mean that their presence therein is necessary".

Yes, the very same man admitted to me that now that he has a bone injury, he takes nutrients for health and healing! Since he actually does have a scientific and medical education in nutrition, we can safely assume that the doses he is taking of these prohibited nutrients are high enough to do him some good - IF they were legal under the European Food Supplements Directive, that is.
Here is the list of the only minerals which Dr. Grossklaus can legally take because they are permitted under the European Food Supplements Directive (all others are prohibited):

Calcium, Magnesium, Iron, Copper, Iodine, Zinc, Manganese, Sodium, Potassium, Selenium, Chromium, Molybdenum, Fluoride, Chloride, Phosphorus.

Oh, my goodness! Boron and Vanadium are not among them! I conclude from this interesting information and conversation with Dr. Grossklaus, the tireless champion of nutrients-as-toxins, nutrients-subjected-to-risk-assessment, nutrients-which-must-have-upper-limits that what is very good for the Masters who want to control our health (and lack thereof) is most assuredly NOT deemed to be good for us, the Serfs who are also known, as a term of art by the people who created Codex, as "Useless Eaters".

Frankly, if your health and mine - perhaps our very survival - were not at stake what takes place here would be a farcical dark comedy, nothing more. Unfortunately, it is a great deal more.

The Natural Solutions Foundation is working for your health and health freedom. In fact, if you read my blog on the events of yesterday, you can see why we say that we are the only organization protecting your interests here at Codex.
YOUR SUPPORT IS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL

Hot off the presses information from Natural Solutions Foundation:

"HR.2900 is the House companion bill to S.1082, the FDA "revitalization" bill that breezed through the Senate last month. That Senate bill was amended to protect Dietary Supplements and we want to make sure the House bill will also be amended to protect supplements and natural remedies. To do that, HR.2900 must be "brought up under a regular order" so it can be fully debated and amended.

Currently the bill is scheduled for 40 minutes of debate and NO amendments, which means Ron Paul's important Health Freedom Protection Act, HR.2117 or other amendments, such as that proposed by attorney Jonathan Emord, would not be allowed to become an amendments to this bill.

We need your help in getting a message through to the House leadership. Please reference HR.2900 and ask that HR.2900 be "brought up under a regular order" to be considered by the House WITH amendments. The bill is expected to be moved on Tuesday, so this is an URGENT matter.

Speaker Pelosi's office in DC is: (202) 225-4965
Email her at: AmericanVoices@mail.house.gov

Email something akin to the following message:

"I urge the House leadership to allow HR.2900 -- the "Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007". -- to be brought up under a regular order so it can be fully debated and amended. I support Ron Paul's Health Freedom Protection Act, HR.2117.
