Putting Money Infront of People's Health

John Powers
Due to pervasive and dangerous rulings, Codex captains have their hands in the pollution pie. 176 nations looked at the chemicals in their environment and established that there were 12 persistent organic pollutants, nine of which are pesticides, all known to cause human disease. These nations determined that they would target the reduction in such chemistry to protect their citizens. Codex has manipulated these mandates via the chemical industry and has advised that seven of these twelve should once again be allowed. As you know, this could save the petrochemical, pharmaceutical and agricultural industry trillions of dollars over time.

In our combined eight decades of practice, we have never seen an assault upon the human race of this magnitude. Being moderates who are far from the conspiracy theory, our views are significantly altered when contemplating this issue. Economics seemingly is more important to a small group of misguided "leaders" than the future health and viability of the human race. People are becoming sicker every day yet if this unthinkable agenda is employed, we will look back on these times as the good old days.

Why would any country sign on to this? If two countries went to the World Trade Organization for a trade dispute, the country who is Codex-compliant automatically wins the dispute, regardless of the case. Most European and all North American countries have used common law for their practice of food and nutritional supplementation. Under common law, anything not forbidden is permitted. This new contorted paradigm appears worryingly Napoleonic; i.e. anything not permitted is forbidden.

We petition each of you to thoughtfully and thoroughly contemplate what the world would be like if the food we eat, the nutrients with which we nourish ourselves and the environment that protects us were all completely controlled by corporations. In the United States, the Department of Agriculture has now ruled that all almonds coming from their source in California must be cooked before national distribution, making them nutritional voids. Many effective herbs throughout the European Union have already been removed with many more to come. When will it stop?

Codex can be defeated if enough money is raised to create an international lobby to vote against it, which is under UN control. For example, the African nations know they will be hit hard if Codex is put into effect. Through proper education - and we know only $200,000 is needed to create an inter-African conference - Codex can be conquered. The Natural Solutions Foundation estimates that we need between $2 and $3 million to win this battle and save the world.

There is no more important subject than health freedom. Those of you reading this must be provoked to action. When your elected leaders receive a letter, they consider each correspondence as thousands of members of the general public. In the United States, if a single person writes, legislators perceive it as being 17,000 people in the society interested in the addressed subject. Write to your political representatives and to food manufacturers and distributors. Boycott any foods that are not organic, and encourage as many people in your family and community circle as possible to participate in the halting of this insane agenda. Get on the Internet and find organizations local to you that are fighting Codex, then fund, support and donate time to them.
