REFERENDUM FOR NATURAL THERAPIES!
Say no to a worldwide ban on vitamin therapies!
To the heads of state and governments of the nations of the Earth!
To decision-makers at the UNO and the UN- suborganisations!
To the members of the Codex Alimentarius Commission!
To members of the European Parliament!
To members of parliaments all over the world!
To all political decision-makers worldwide!
To the representatives of my interests and all political decision makers.
It is with great concern that I have learnt that, under pressure from the
pharmaceutical industry, vitamin therapies and other natural treatments are to be
banned for millions of people in Europe and throughout the world. To protect the
interests of the billion-pound industry in purely symptom-oriented and often
dangerous pharmaceutical drugs, my right of access to effective vitamin therapies
and natural treatments and also my fundamental right to health and well-being are
being seriously violated.
The European Commission's "Directive on Dietary Supplements" and the UN's
"Codex Alimentarius" plans solely serve the pharmaceutical industry's interest in
artificially sustaining its billion-pound markets in now superfluous pharmaceutical
drugs. Obviously the pharmaceutical industry lobby does not shy away from the
abuse of the highest political bodies in the world in pursuit of its unscrupulous aims.
These attacks on the human right to health come at a time when ever more
widespread diseases and public health problems can be successfully combated by
vitamin therapies and other natural treatments free of side- effects.
I myself am interested in natural health. I am aware that vitamin deficiency is the
main cause of the most widespread health problems of our time. I also know that
heart attack, stroke, cancer, osteoporosis, diabetes and other public health problems
could be reduced to a tiny fraction of their current frequency. The saving of millions
of human lives is dependent upon one single factor: how quickly can the live- saving
information about the health benefits of vitamins and other natural therapies be
spread. This makes all legislative efforts to censor and ban the spreading of natural
health information knowledge all the more unethical and contemptible.
According to the statistics of the UNO, two billion people suffer worldwide from
vitamin deficiency - both in industrialized and in developing countries. In light of
these
figures it is irresponsible for this same global organization to allow itself to be
abused
by the pharmaceutical industry lobby in its aim of blocking the dissemination of this
vital information. The spurious argument that these censorship laws are to protect
consumers from the alleged side-effects of vitamins is a lie. Worldwide, several
hundred thousand people die every year from the harmful side-effects of
pharmaceutical drugs - but not a single person has ever come to any harm as a
result of vitamin therapies.
Worse still, the deadly side-effects of cholesterol-blockers and other pharmaceutical
drugs have become the fourth- most common cause of death in the industrialized
world - surpassed only by heart attack, cancer and stroke. The planned laws banning
vitamin therapies and other side-effect free natural health treatments are not
improving my health, but only of the billion-dollar "business with disease". If you,
as a
political decision-taker, support these laws, you are knowingly risking the
unnecessary deaths of millions of people.
I am appalled to find out that these censorship plans are to be unscrupulously forced
through on behalf of the pharmaceutical industry whilst the war against terror is
making all the headlines, without any public discussion and against the express will
of the people! I condemn the fact that neither the EU Commission nor the so-called
"Codex Alimentarius" Commission is an elected body or is subject to any form of
democratic control. It is significant that this same EU Commission was recently
dismissed by the European Parliament for corruption and for taking bribes from
multinational companies.
I realize that I have to take responsibility for my own health. My health and the lives
of millions of my fellow human beings are more important than the share prices of a
handful of pharmaceutical industry speculators and their political lackeys.
By signing this I am taking part in the largest referendum of all time and call on you,
as a political decision-maker, to:
Stop the Codex Alimentarius and the EU Directive on dietary supplements, as well as
all related censorship laws on national and international level!
Commit yourself to giving all people in the world free and unrestricted access to life-
saving information about the health benefits of vitamin therapies and other natural
treatments.
Commit yourself to the fight to make natural health a fundamental right enshrined in
your country's constitution and also as a basic human right within the UN Charter.
I demand the immediate launch of a referendum for the fundamental right to natural
health!
I will no longer cast my vote for any politician who does not commit himself or herself
to free access to natural treatments! I am counting on you! I look forward with great
interest to your reply and statement.
