EMERGENCY HEALTH FREEDOM ACTION REQUIRED

FDA SAYS "NO SHIPMENT ACROSS STATE LINES IF STUDIES ABOUT SUPPLEMENT HAVE EVER BEEN PUBLISHED!"

FDA, both domestically and through Codex, has been trying to make information about the relationship of food and food components to health forbidden speech. That includes supplements, of course. As if that were not bad enough, they have come up with another ploy to make it illegal to ship supplements across state lines IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY PUBLISHED HEALTH STUDIES ABOUT ANY INGREDIENT!

And we have only 5 days to stop them. This is a diabolical, but clever, drug company-inspired double whammy:

Whammy Number 1: Under proposed FDA/Codex rules you cannot tell anyone about what nutrients and supplement can do for them because they are, say the bureaucrats, not "supported" in the scientific literature (despite the science called "Biochemistry" and millions of peer-reviewed journal articles)

Whammy Number 2: You won't be able to get supplements if what they can do for you has ever been documented in the scientific literature, as part of any medical study.

It's Actually Even Worse Than That

In July, 2007, The FDA Amendments Act of 2007, Public Law 110-85, was adopted by the US. Congress. With your support, Natural Solutions Foundation Health Freedom advocates fought hard to convinced Senator Harkin (R-IL) to force inclusion of language exempting dietary supplements from the provisions in the law. That protective language is the law of the United States of America, enacted as section 1011, the DSHEA Product Rule of Construction.
The failed and corrupt FDA, however, in its relentless crusade to eliminate the rights of Americans to learn about or use the most significant economic competitor to pharmaceutical drugs has no respect for the law and no interest in either your freedom or your health. They are currently promulgating regulations which would make it illegal to ship supplements across state lines. This would accomplish both definitions of "Nutricide".

Nu tri cide (3 syllables):
1. The death of the body of knowledge about the relationship between health and nutrition
2. The death of large populations through the manipulation of the food [and supplement] supply.

URGENT ACTION REQUIRED NOW

Comments close on November 25, 2008 on a new regulatory sneak attack against supplements. FDA regulations will, if the FDA succeeds, make the shipment of supplements across state lines illegal - get this - IF THE SUPPLEMENT HAS BEEN THE SUBJECT OF A CLINICAL STUDY.

If you value...

*Your access to supplements and nutrients*Your health*Your freedom to determine what goes into your body*Your First Amendment Rights ...then I urge you in the strongest terms to click below NOW to help make sure that the FDA, at least this once, obeys the law of the land.

Last time the FDA tried something this awful, through the 2007 "Draft CAM Guidance", the Natural Solutions Foundation alerted health freedom lovers. Time was very short then, too but as a result, 588,000+ people came to our site to tell the FDA not to continue with its plan to turn nutrients into "untested drugs" and therefore make them all illegal. The FDA system "accidentally' crashed so "only" 198,000+ people got their comments in but FDA got the message and backed off.

We said at that time we counted their backing off as a triumph but that they would be back. Well, they are back and they are sneakier and meaner than ever. We have enormous power in the aggregate. Now it is time to use it. Again.

It is imperative that you tell your friends about his and have them take action, too. Forward this email NOW to your entire list with a little note at the top telling them that taking action now is vitally important to their health and to their freedom.

Force FDA to Obey US Law Protecting Supplements. The FDA's Disregard for US Law Must be Controlled. Take Action to Prevent Regulations Banning Protected Supplements From Interstate Commerce.

Despite clear protection for all supplements covered by the 1994 Dietary Supplements and Health Education Act (DSHEA) in the FDA Amendments Act of 2007 (Public Law 110-85), the FDA is once again seeking to impede the right of Americans to access, choose and use health products and nutrients.

DSHEA classified supplements, nutrients and herbs as substances which were to be treated as foods, not drugs. As such, their dose and composition was a matter for personal choice and market forces to determine since they were not to be regulated as drugs. This legal protection has been anathema to the FDA which declared after DSHEA's adoption by unanimous consent by the US Congress that it was the worst law ever passed.

FDA's continuing assaults on dietary supplements and related protected substances has been consistent and unrelenting. Natural Solutions Foundation ascribes this to the enormous influence of the Pharmaceutical Industry on the FDA since low cost, safe and effective nutrients are the single most significant economic competitor faced by high cost, toxic and often lethal drugs.

When Public Law 110-85 was being debated by the US Senate, Natural Solutions Foundation health freedom advocates prevailed upon Senator Harkin (R-IL) to introduce language stipulating that nothing in the bill should apply to prdoucts and substances protected by DSHEA. That language was adopted and preserved in the final bill under as adopted by the US. Congress. Natural Solutions Foundation Health Freedom advocates fought hard to convinced Senator Harkin (R-IL) to force inclusion of language exempting dietary supplements from the provisions in the law. That protective language is the law of the United States of America, enacted as Section 1011.1, Rule of Construction:

"Nothing in this title (or an amendment made by this title) shall be construed to affect-- (1) the regulation of dietary supplements under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (Public Law 103-417)"

None the less, the FDA is currently promulgating a Draft Regulation which would make it illegal to ship nutrients and supplements in interstate Commerce if any scientific study existed about that substance, considering that such study is, in and of itself, sufficent to classify this product or substance an untested drug. Clearly, this thinly veiled, and thoroughly illegal, attempt to destroy the supplement industry serves to demonstrate clearly the vigorous opposition of the FDA to both health freedom and to being restrained by US law when it does not serve the interest of industrial forces which determine FDA policy. Please join me, during the few days that we have remaining, in sending your strong opposition to this unwise and illegal regulation. Please join me, too, in sending this information to everyone on your contact list urging them to protect their health and their freedom to make their own health choices at the same time.

MRSA - Drug-Resistant Staph At Pandemic Proportions In US

MRSA - Drug-Resistant Staph At Pandemic Proportions In US
By Jesse Hargrave

The press is reporting drug-resistant staph bacteria picked up in ordinary community settings are increasingly acquiring "superbug" powers and causing far more serious illnesses than they have in the past, doctors reported Monday. These widespread germs used to be easier to treat than the dangerous forms of staph found in hospitals and nursing homes. "Until recently we rarely thought of it as a problem among healthy people in the community," said Dr. Rachel Gorwitz of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Now, the germs causing outbreaks in schools, on sports teams and in other social situations are posing a growing threat. A CDC study found that at least 10 percent of cases involving the most common community strain were able to evade the antibiotics typically used to treat them. "They're becoming more resistant and they're coming into the hospitals," where they swap gene components with other bacteria and grow even more dangerous, said Dr. Keith Klugman, an infectious disease expert at Emory University. "It's really a major epidemic."

The germ is methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA. People can carry it on their skin or in their noses with no symptoms and still infect others — the reason many hospitals isolate and test new patients to see if they harbor the bug. MRSA mostly causes skin infections. But the germ can be life-threatening if it gets into the bloodstream, lungs or organs. Pneumonia, sinus infections and even "flesh-eating" wounds due to MRSA are on the rise, doctors reported Monday at an infectious diseases conference in Washington.

About 95,000 serious infections and 20,000 deaths due to drug-resistant staph bacteria occur in the United States each year. To treat them, "we've had to dust off antibiotics so old that they've lost their patent," said Dr. Robert Daum, a pediatrician at the University of Chicago. The old "antibiotic" is not being openly discussed due to special interests who cannot gain control of the ingredient - silver. The most advanced solution is in a category called UPCOSH™ (Uniform Picoscalar Concentrated Oligodynamic Silver Hydrosol™) copywritten by Burk-Elder, Hale, Third, the owner and developer of UPCOSH™ and the product BIONAID™, and is available to the public as a dietary supplement.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention notes that some two-million patients become infected in American hospitals—and some 90,000 die as a result of their infections. Such hospital-derived conditions are known as "nosocomial infections." It has been recently reported that more people are dying from MRSA than AIDS. So why isn't the CDC speaking about Uniform Picoscalar Concentrated Oligodynamic Silver Hydrosol in their literature?

The number one culprit is a bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, which has developed resistance to almost every antibiotic we have to fight it. "Staph," says Dr. Jonathan Jacobs, of the Weill Cornell Medical Center, "is one of the most common infections that we encounter."

An investigation in the Chicago Tribune places much of the blame on dirty hospitals and health care workers who don’t wash their hands. Doctors admit that poor hygiene on the part of hospital personnel is a factor in the infections. "It’s very easy to transmit these organisms, and it doesn’t take much of a lapse in hygiene to do it," says Dr. Jacobs.

Experts also note that hospitals should not be thought of as "safe havens" One expert, Victor Yu, M.D., of the VA Medical Center and University of Pittsburgh, says, "For the first time in perhaps maybe 50 years, the microbes probably have an edge. It’s scary." Antibiotics may have contributed to this return of the microbe, it’s relieving to note that oligodynamic silver’s track record at destroying over 100 strains of Staph is legendary. We shall see in a moment the evidence for this.

One hospital worker (who wishes to remain anonymous for job security) reported the following:
"In one of the surgery centers I'm a principal in - we had an outbreak of MRSA among our postoperative patients a few years back. We went in with chlorox and other disinfectants and swabbed every damned surface. Those we could not get to (underside of the OR table, underside of drawers, etc., we sprayed with a diluted version of the disinfectant solution. The results were the whole place tested "clean" when we did over 1000 swabs (to send to the lab) per area. We did random places ranging from the inside of a sink drain opening to the tops of trays on which a sterile drape and then instruments would be placed. We even checked the inside of our medical waste receptacles (the ones you line with the red bags) and they were "clean". Not one hint of MRSA remained in the entire place. We shut down for four days, cancelled all surgery, and required that all staff come in for at least four hours during the period to undergo lectures and training, etc., while we were cleaning. When we were "done" with the cleaning process, we went in with steam units and blasted the whole place with 300 degree plus steam as the "final" step. Then we tested again. Still clean. So far, so good.

"The above are the CDC methodology for decontamination of a medical suite or a surgical suite once the pathogen has been discovered in patients or on the surfaces. We had it in four different patients but never found any on surfaces - but we did the super clean routine and decontamination anyway. Better safe than dead.

"Finally after our shutdown and cleaning we "swabbed" the staff. Everyone from secretaries to physicians was required to undergo swab samples from the deep nases (way back in the nose), as well as throat, and groin swabs. (The crease between the pubic mound and the leg are notoriously hard to clear of staff once it gets a foothold there.)

"Four surgeons were positive on their nasal swabs! We were in shock! Four of them! Seems their constant exposure to patients and being in and out of other facilities had turned them into carriers. All patients who'd turned up with the disease were former patients of one of these four. Three of the surgeons (one woman and two men) said - "fine - what do we do to fix it?" - and we put them on a regime of 2% Murpirocin* ointment 2% to be swabbed into the nases four times a day for two weeks - and then retested. The docs could operate during this time but they could not have physical contact with a patient without protective gear - mask, gloves, gowns, etc. between them and the patient. They couldn't even shake hands with a patient ungloved. All three docs tested clear within one week but continued the treatment for another week just to be certain we'd knocked it out entirely. Eventually we did. It took an extra two weeks on one doc who was himself on Chemotherapy for a mild cancer and his immune system was impacted negatively. So for him, it took a little longer for the therapy to be effective."

Another prevalent infection is legionellosis. Numerous reports have been published within the past year regarding patient infections in long-term care facilities, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, and pediatric hospitals, says Dr. Yu. "The institutional water supply has been the source in all reports." Could Uniform Picoscalar Concentrated Oligodynamic Silver Hydrosol (UPCOSH™) be the Gold Standard?

In the August 2000 issue of Current Opinions on Infectious Disease, Dr. D.J. Stickler of the Cardiff School of Biosciences, Cardiff University, Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom, poses this provocative question, "Biomaterials to prevent nosocomial infections: is silver the gold standard?"1

In fact, many experts now consider silver to be essential to control of hospital-borne pathogens. Urinary catheters are impregnated with silver. The leading topical antibiotic today is silver sulfadiazine. Copper-silver ionization has displaced chlorination as the long-term disinfection modality of choice for prevention of legionellosis.

Oligodynamic silver’s performance (e.g., = 0.1 ppm concentration level) at destroying legionellosis in the tap water is now firmly established.2, 3

In 1994, it was shown that silver could combat bacterial colonization by Staph. The "reduced bacterial growth" of Staph. pathogens "indicates that the release of silver in tissues over time cause antibacterial effects in vivo," says Dr. M.K. Dasgupta, of the Walter McKenzie Health Sciences Center, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada.4

Today, nanotechnology has greatly improved over the previous kinds of oligodynamic silver preparations. The rich content of oligodynamic silver within Uniform Picoscalar Concentrated Oligodynamic Silver Hydrosol (UPCOSH™) has not only proven efficacy against all the most common Staph. infections, but notably destroys the most highly resistant ones as well. Both in vitro and in vivo studies confirm oligodynamic silver’s lethal effects against:

*Staphylococcus spp. (20 Coagulase-negative strains)5,
*Staphylococcus aureus6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14,
*Staphylococcus aureus (97 MRSA strains) 15, 16,
*Staphylococcus epidermidis17, 18, 19, 20,
*Staphylococcus maruslene21,
*Staphylococcus pyogenea22,
*Staphylococcus pyogens albus23,
*Staphylococcus pyogens aureus24, and
*Staphylococcus systeneriae25

During the years of 1977 - 1999 the World Health Organization (WHO) conducted tests to elimate HIV. Dr. Georga Carr conducted research in Belize with 100 patients that tested positive for HIV were tested and all 100 patients recovered. Some of the couples that were pregnant gave birth to babies that were HIV free.26

So the question remains, given the facts that NASA has contributed so much to this technology, as well as others, WHO, universities and other institutions have proven its effectivenes, and doctors have begun to state that we have a better alternative to vaccines, Why is the news about Uniform Picoscalar Concentrated Oligodynamic Silver Hydrosol being censored and vaccines continually being pushed upon the public?

This writer believes that parents opposed to giving their children vaccines need not seek to defend their avoidance of them just because they are so risky, but because there is an alternative that removes the risks altogether. This writer believes that parents opposed to giving their children vaccines need not seek to defend their avoidance of them just because they are so risky, but because there is an alternative that removes the risks altogether. The developer of Bionaiod has offered a $1million gold reward to vaccine/drug supporters to prove that their vaccines/drugs are more safe and effective than Bionaid and Zeoheal.
