The Health Freedom Protection Act
Stop FDA Censorship
Support the Health Freedom Protection Act
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is censoring health information. The
pharmaceutical companies are the winners. You and your family are the
losers.
The FDA is censoring health information. For example, the FDA prohibited
the claim that folic acid reduces the risk of neural tube defects for four
years while the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended every
woman of childbearing age take that supplement. Thus, the FDA contributed
to an estimated 10,000 preventable neural tube defects.
An estimated 300,000 Americans die each year from sudden-death heart
attacks. That number, however, could be reduced by 40% if people were
allowed to know that fish oil treats heart arrhythmias and heart thrombosis.
An estimated 20 million Americans suffer pain and debilitation from
osteoarthritis. That number, however, could be reduced substantially if
people were allowed to know that glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate treat
osteoarthritis. An estimated 50% of males over the age of 50 suffer from a
benign enlarged prostate. That number, however, could be reduced if men
were allowed to know that saw palmetto extract treats benign prostatic
hyperplasia. The evidence for these dietary ingredients claims is
overwhelming -- yet the FDA bans them outright!
In 1994, the U.S. Congress ordered the FDA to let the public have access to
scientific articles and publications on the role of nutrients in disease by
passing the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA). In
addition, four federal court orders have condemed the FDA's practice of
censorship as a violation of the First Amendment. Yet, censorship by the
FDA goes on!!
The Health Freedom Protection Act would prevent the FDA from censoring
Americans' right to know about truthful, health-enhancing benefits of foods
and dietary ingredients.
Congressmen Ron Paul and Walter Jones will introduce the Health Freedom
Protection Act on Wednesday, November 9th. Please urge your U.S.
representative to become an original cosponsor of this legislation. Go to
