Europe To Ban Herbal Supplements; U.S. Food Act To Follow?

Follow up on: NWO Dictatorship Update: New Food Act Takes Global Control 12-29-30 "...the FDA will "harmonize" the U.S. food and dietary supplement industries with global Codex requirements which outlaw virtually all healthy doses of vitamins and minerals." [see post]

Europe to ban hundreds of herbal remedies

Hundreds of herbal medicinal products will be banned from sale in Britain next year under what campaigners say is a "discriminatory and disproportionate" European law.
With four months to go before the EU-wide ban is implemented, thousands of patients face the loss of herbal remedies that have been used in the UK for decades.
From 1 May 2011, traditional herbal medicinal products must be licensed or prescribed by a registered herbal practitioner to comply with an EU directive passed in 2004. The directive was introduced in response to rising concern over adverse effects caused by herbal medicines.
Herbal practitioners say it is impossible for most herbal medicines to meet the licensing requirements for safety and quality, which are intended to be similar to those for pharmaceutical drugs, because of the cost of testing.
According to the Alliance for Natural Health (ANH), which represents herbal practitioners, not a single product used in traditional Chinese medicine or ayurvedic medicine has been licensed. In Europe, around 200 products from 27 plant species have been licensed but there are 300 plant species in use in the UK alone.
The ANH estimates the cost of obtaining a licence at between £80,000 and £120,000 [$125,000-$187,000] per herb. They say this is affordable for single herbal products with big markets, such as echinacea, a remedy for colds and flu, but will drive small producers of medicines containing multiple herbs out of business.

re: "EU-wide ban"

Nobody operates outside the Big Brother system. Unless the herbal remedies are 'Big Brother-licensed' and the providers are 'Big Brother-registered' the herbal supplement-ers are out of business.

It was only one year ago that the EU passed the Lisbon Treaty which morphed the 27-nation alliance into a prototypical NWO 'Superstate'
[here]. This has made possible the "EU-wide ban" on herbal supplements.

But the global agenda extends beyond Europe of course which is why the U.S. Congress just last week passed the so-called "Food Safety" plan [see 'update' above] which submits America to the exact same thing i.e. the "global codex requirements". Take note. Exactly what is happening in Europe in four months will also happen here in the U.S.A. before long. Big Brother will be the supplement monopoly over the entire earth. That is what it is all about.
