Ah. This is part of an orchestrated campaign. Note that just last week, McCain started pushing to give the FDA jurisdiction over all vitamins.
If you control the food supply and housing, they control you. This is all an effort to centralize all sustenance and control it so they can dictate to you and remove your freedom. Slavery is making a big comeback..
Recently, there have been a couple of stories reporting how dangerous it is to take multiple antioxidants, high levels of Vitamin C, cereals enriched with vitamins, etc. I believe these stories are just setting the stage for a FDA takeover.
When a drug company wants to push a drug, such as a drug for breast cancer, the media is flooded with stories about breast cancer and Dr. Gutpa is interviewed on TV. Lo and behold, miracurously, a new breast cancer drug appears on the market. Same with cholesteral drugs, anti-depressants, etc. “Ask your doctor if you should take blah, blah, blah.” Half the time, the TV viewer doesn’t even know what the drug is for, but he’s supposed to ask his doctor for it.

TRI CARE FOR LIFE This from a google search:

This option would help reduce the costs of TFL, as well as costs for Medicare, by introducing minimum out-of pocket requirements for beneficiaries. Under this option, TFL would not cover any of the first $525 of an enrollee’s cost-sharing liabilities for calendar year 2011 and would limit coverage to 50 percent of the next $4,725 in Medicare cost sharing that the beneficiary incurred. (Because all further cost sharing would be covered by TFL, enrollees could not pay more than $2,888 in cost sharing in that year.) http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/99xx/doc9925/12-18-HealthOptions.pdf

Tricare fee increases imposed last week by the Defense Department will be repealed by a provision of the compromise 2010 defense authorization bill unveiled Wednesday by House and Senate negotiators.
Snip The fee increases were announced on Sept. 30 and took effect on Oct. 1, but the defense bill, HR 2647, includes a provision barring any fee increases until the start of fiscal 2011.

Retired Army Maj. Gen. Bill Matz, president of the National Association for Uniformed Services, said the announcement of fee increases was shocking considering that the Obama administration promised earlier this year to hold off on any new fee Tricare fee increases until fiscal 2011.
“President Obama and DoD assured NAUS and the entire military family earlier this year that there would rightly be no increases in any Tricare fees” in fiscal 2010, Matz said. “We took them at their word, and I can’t believe that a co-pay increase like this was allowed to go forward,” he added.
It seems to me that this is the opposite of the McCain-big-government solution. When someone does you harm you take them to court. If you prove your case you get compensated and the one who did the harm gets the publicity. The free market solution.
“This is part of an orchestrated campaign. Note that just last week, McCain started pushing to give the FDA jurisdiction over all vitamins.”
I think you may be right. Today I read an article how Chinese herbal medicines are poisonous and kill people.
I can’t say that you are wrong, but many ‘supplements’ contain artificially synthesized ingredients, rather than natural substances from once living sources, and that turns the idea of food supplements on it’s head.
Also, much of the fish oil on the market is useless crap from farmed fish that contains almost no value at all.
