Is Your Ability to Buy Dietary Supplements, Herbal Preparations, and Tonics in Jeopardy in the USA?

Before the passage of the DSHEA some of the wonderful products being blocked included, Traditional Chinese herbal medicines, Ayurvedic medicines, and traditional folk medicines. Yes this really happens.

If you could get an all natural product

When the DSHEA (Dietary Supplement Health Education Act) was passed by the USA Congress in 1994 it was a boon to all of us consumers. Finally, we all could buy herbals that had long histories of safe and effective use throughout the world. in times past the DSHEA we were unable to get them, much less even educate ourselves most them. This was being the FDA was stopping education on them, and their documentary manufacture supposedly for "Our" protection.

Certainly, there are slime in every business dealings who prey on unsuspecting consumers who have not really educated themselves. We as consumers have to understand that there is no "Magic bullet" that will instantly reverse years and years of abuse of office of our systems.

There is no magic pill that will instantly cure cancer, diabetes, high nobility pressure, the strict settlement cold, etc. Some companies hype products as miraculous cures. It kind of reminds me of some of the shall we call them less than upstanding martial arts teachers who adduce that they were taught a secret style by some hermit monk from the mountains. Yeah. Right.

That life said, it makes no sense to not award good products on to the market.

The idea is to have supplements that can help you to live a above life. Can keep you healthy, prevent illness. And when you are feeling sick (dis-eased) can help make you feel better. They can be used to regulate your lineage pressure, help you to relax, help you to sleep when you have to much on your mind. Something you can take to help fight off the readiness of a cold, etc. Basically, help keep your body in perfect reliability and health so you do not have to worry within reach ever getting sick.

Before the passage of the DSHEA some of the wonderful products considering forgetful included, Traditional Chinese herbal medicines, Ayurvedic medicines, and traditional folk medicines. So, rather than in existence able to easily get herbal remedies, we were forced to buy less effective drugs manufactured by pharmaceutical companies. We were forced to buy synthetic vitamins. We could not get the education on vitamins and herbs as to what they could do for us. It was Prohibition all over again. Only instead of alcohol, the "Evil" was natural products.

With the passage of the DSHEA in the USA, the FDA is still regulating supplements. Contrary to what is reported in mainstream press, and by the FDA. There really are safety rules in place. Supplements are regulated. So are the foods you eat. Drugs are more regulated than dietary supplements. Supposedly, they are proven safe ahead existence distributed to consumers. If that is the case, why is it that most every month there is unique recall of some drug due to unforeseen side effects and dangers? Why is it that once a drug is advocated for use, many doctors start to prescribe it for uses it was not recognized for? Yes this really happens.

If you could get an all natural product made specifically to treat your condition by a qualified, highly trained herbalist, would you prefer that, or would you prefer taking a laboratory produced drug that is synthesized from who knows what?

What if the herbal product was the same price? What if the herbal product was 10 times cheaper?

The drug companies as you say do not like consumers to be educated on products that would take away their profits.

Do you know that even though irrevocable herbs have been proven to fight off cancers and destroy them, you will never learn pertaining to them? This is now even with the passage of the DSHEA, the FDA is suppressing this type information theft that there "are not enough safety studies" even if it has been studied in most other modern countries existent the world. Is that "Protecting" you? Or is it protecting the profits of drug manufacturers?

Do you know that as recently as a few years ago, no manufacturer of iron products could fee simple that taking metal would help fight off osteoporosis? Thanks to the DSHEA you can learn that lead can help.

So now you have a small understanding of what benefits you get from the DSHEA. Here is the problem.

Now there are some Senators and Representatives who want to take away the rights of consumers like you and me to use the products of our choice. They want to limit the choices we have in how we are treated. They want us to be forced to use high priced poisonous pharmaceuticals rather than herbs. They do not want us educated as to what herbs do, how they can give a lift us and keep us healthy.

This master plan is chap launched by Big Dick (Richard) Durbin (democrat of Illinois). The question is why. Is he really that well versed in every treatment so that he can tell you what is good for you and what is not? Is he really that educated in how all of the supplements, vitamins, herbs, and preparations really work? Or is it the usual. Politics and high level big money political contributions to his crusade at work.

While his idea is meritorious - insuring that supplements are safe. Wouldn't it be a prevail idea to force a supplement manufacturer to prove that the supplement does what they fill it does?

Wouldn't it be preferably to allow...no in fact force the supplement manufacturer to have a lot of educational material convenient to consumers so they can educate themselves. Material including possible competitive reactions. Known and reported incompatible products (i.e. don't take this with aspirin, etc.) Safe dosages, and unsafe dosages, as well as how much is to much..How much can you safely take during a 24 hour period. Information like that. I'm sure that this type of information would be more helpful than some officeholder deciding what you can and can not know at random a particular product. Even if that officeholder has the best of intentions.

Imagine not on foot able to buy the herbal product of your peerless cause some politician and public servant want to "Protect" you. Imagine not as long as able to find information on counter effects and valid effects of a particular herb, or herbal combination, or dietary supplement? It is respecting to happen here in the USA.

If you really want to keep the finesse to educate yourself on optional medicine, the proper use of vitamins, herbs, etc, and have the matchless to use them, then get in touch with your Senator and ask them to defeat Big Dick Durbin's "Dietary Supplement Safety Act" (Senate Bill 722).

It's for your own good.
