Ron Paul claims CAFTA will require presciptions for Vitamins.
To be honest I haven't read the bill but how is he claiming that?
"Ron Paul claims CAFTA will require presciptions for Vitamins."
That would be good. Vitamins are a scam anyway. You get what you need in your normal daily diet (except for the dude that only ate Big Macs for a month).
Ron Paul is absolutely correct about CAFTA's connection to giving BigPharma the key to your vitamin cabinet. Look up keyword CODEX for a lot of information on Codex Alimentium, the UN's directive making vitamins and other nutritional products illegal except in miniscule doses, with larger doses becoming prescription drugs. Already, you cannot buy vitamins in Norway, and England's health food stores are now on the way out of business. So beware, This issue is so huge with me, I'll dump Bush and the rest of the republican party if they vote for this attack on personal freedom.
Does Cafta incorporate CODEX as american law? How are these two linked? More info:
"The seeds of our health freedom destruction are sewn inside Section 6 of CAFTA where members are forced to form a Sanitary-Phytosanitary Measures (SPS) Committee for the purpose of insuring ONGOING HARMONIZATION of our laws under the terms of the SPS Agreement in the WTO Trade Agreement."
This is very sneaky. But it means, in short, that the USA would have to adopt nutritional standards approved by WTO. Those standards are set forth in Codex Alimentarius. Codex makes almost every vitamin supplement on the market illegal and requires that only minimum (and woefully inadequate) amounts of vitamins be sold over the counter...
According to International Advocates for Health Freedom (IAHF, an organization that has full information on their site: http://www.iahf.com/index3.html
And I quote: "A group led by Dr Rolf Großklaus (Chair of the Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses) has just produced a (eugenics oriented) "risk assessment model" for deducing maximum safe levels of nutrients provided in supplements and fortified foods.
It's extremely important to understand that the Codex Commission has been funded in large part by Bayer, a German company, and other manufacturers of pharmaceuticals. .
The final "recommended maximum levels for food supplements" as recommended by Dr. Großklaus and his team, are as follows:
Vitamins
Beta-Carotene: 2-4 mg
Vitamin D: 5-10 µg
Vitamin E (equivalent): 15 mg
Vitamin K: 80 µg
Vitamin B1 : 4 mg
Vitamin B2 : 4.5 mg
Niacin: 17 mg
Vitamin B6: ?5.4 mg
Folic acid: 400 µg
Pantothenic acid: 18 mg
Biotin: ?180 µg
Vitamin B12: 9 µg
Vitamin C: 225 mg
Minerals
Sodium: 550 mg
Chloride: 830 mg
Potassium: 2000 mg
Calcium: 1200 mg
Phosphorus: 1250 mg
Magnesium: 400 mg
Iron: ?15 mg
Iodine: 200 µg
Fluoride: 3.8 mg
Zinc: 10 mg
Selenium: 70 µg
Copper: 1500 µg
Manganese: 5 mg
Chromium: 100 µg
Molybdenum: 100 µg

SUMMING UP: Codex, funded by pharmaceutical companies, is aimed at making vitamins, minerals, and other health enhancing products illegal on the open market. They will only be available by prescription and will only be manufactured by pharmaceutical houses. That's the financial aspect.
The other aspect of this dreadful plan is to weaken healthy populations--again, the pharmaceutical manufacturers (Big Pharma) will profit enormously when formerly nutritionally sound populations begin to suffer health breakdowns. Plus, the weakened population will become less able to resist world government.
In effect, Codex wants to make sure that Americans have nutritional levels roughly equal to that of Africans living in mud huts. No Thank you!
The solution is to immediately write to your congresspersons and tell them to vote NO on CAFTA. Immediately! Cafta is about to be passed.
