Care about your health choices still being there for you?
This lens has been created to inform the public about the crisis regarding our health choices, the attempt to limit or eliminate them, and places to go to find out more.
The Most Important Thing
Our health freedoms are at great risk. From the Codex Alimentarius to big Pharma, Agri, and Biotechna businesses to the AMA and ADA to our own FDA, this is happening now and must be stopped before we lose our physical and psychological sovereignty. We do have the power to turn this around by taking action.
Our Health Rights at Risk
Are We in Trouble?
From the Codex Alimentarius to the FDA's conflict of interest with the big Pharma corps, it hasn't been looking too good for keeping the right to choose in the area of our health.
There is a risk, make on mistake on that. Big pharma keeps on pushing the lawmakers to ban our access to not only information on supplements, herbs, and other alternative healing modalities, but also to these items as well.
Alreay, in the EU, many countries are starting to limit or ban them. Vitamins, minerals, herbs etc. (and only artificial low dose ones) are to be only obtained through a doctor's prescription. Drugs (many toxic and expensive) are to be considered the first line of healing. Big profits are considered before someone's health. The is the job of the Codex Alimentarius. The FDA wants to harmonize with Codex and do the same thing. It has already issued a guidance towards this.
Are our bodies to be owned by the state? If you care about your freedom to choose what you take, foodwise, and what kind of therapy you seek, especially if it preventative, then please educate yourself with the information provided in this lens.

It Seems That Only One Congressman Cares....
This is a Quote from Congressman Ron Paul from Texas
"Health FreedomAmericans are justifiably concerned over the government's escalating intervention into their freedom to choose what they eat and how they take care of their health.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), in order to comply with standards dictated by supra-national organizations such as the UN's World Food Code (CODEX), NAFTA, and CAFTA, has been assuming greater control over nutrients, vitamins and natural health care providers to restrict your right to choose the manner in which you manage your health and nutritional needs.
I have been the national leader in preserving Health Freedom.
I have introduced the Health Freedom Protection Act, HR 2117, to ensure Americans can receive truthful health information about supplements and natural remedies.
I support the Access to Medical Treatment Act, H.R. 2717, which expands the ability of Americans to use alternative medicine and new treatments.
I oppose legislation that increases the FDA's legal powers. FDA has consistently failed to protect the public from dangerous drugs, genetically modified foods, dangerous pesticides and other chemicals in the food supply. Meanwhile they waste public funds attacking safe, healthy foods and dietary supplements
I also opposed the Homeland Security Bill, H.R. 5005, which, in section 304, authorizes the forced vaccination of American citizens against small pox. The government should never have the power to require immunizations or vaccinations."
Here is a Preview of Coming Attractions....
That is, if we do nothing.
This is from the Natural Solutions Foundation: California Forced Chemo CaseYou may recall that last month the Natural Solutions Foundation broke the story of a 17 year old California boy facing Court-ordered chemotherapy and surgery in California for a malignant melanoma he did not have any longer and his mother's efforts to keep her son from being poisoned by unnecessary drugs.
Because mother and son were under a Court-imposed gag order, we were not able to provide specific names, and case particulars about this frightening and potentially lethal invasion of privacy and violation of civil rights. In some rather naive circles, this even led to speculation that the story was an urban legend or a myth.
Nothing could be further from the truth and if you click here (http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/wp-admin/post-new.php?posted=434) or here (http://tinyurl.com/2bnrfr) you can read the latest information on Laurie Jessop, the mother, and her 17 year old son, Chad and the harrowing - but not unique - nightmare they have endured because the State of California believes that it, not Laurie or Chad, owns their bodies and can do with them as it wishes.
Congratulations, Laurie and Chad, for Persevering and Remaining in Charge of Your Own Health!
We cannot allow the FDA, AMA (which is bought by Big Pharma), and the pharmaceutical corps to make our health choices for us. As you can see from the above article, this can end up costing us our freedom, our health, and a great deal of our money.
That is why I have created this lens with this information and links to the many sites for organizations that are leading the way to our solutions to this crisis. I urge anyone who is reading this to check them out.
Codex Alimentarius: A Primer
What is it and why is it so critical to our health freedom
The following is an excerpt from Dr. Rima Laibow on the subject:"The modern history of Codex began under the prompting of certain mostly German businessmen (some more or less straight from Allied internment camps) who became active in international post-war pharmaceutical consolidation and regulation. In the early '60s the WHO and FAO jointly established Codex Alimentarius as a UN agency. The Codex Alimentarius Commission and its various committees and working groups oversee a series of Standards defining various items in the food trade and Guidelines relating to the processes of the trade.
The Codex Statute puts food safety on an equal par with promoting world food trade. Codex, unfortunately has become the playground of various large commercial interests and the governments with which they cooperate, thereby allowing the degradation of organic standards, increased allowed levels of toxicity, un-labeled irradiation and use of genetically modified ingredients. But even worse, the Codex VMG - Vitamin and Mineral Guideline - treats natural dietary ingredients more akin to drugs or industrial chemicals than the foods substances that they are, subjecting nutrients and natural remedies to an impossible standard for making simple nourishing health benefit claims."
What is so outrageous is that the FDA plans on harmonizing with Codex. We could even be forced to comply with its regulations or suffer trade sanctions. Yes, it could go that far.
Forced Vaccinations? In a Free Country?
Something to look forward to if we do nothing....
It seems that compulsory mandatory vaccination and medication is gathering steam in some places. Yes, in some locations in this country, your body and your children's body belongs to the state (and the corporations).
In Prince George's County, Maryland, 2300 children were forcibly vaccinated. The parents were given the choice of that or prison. They were not even told that they could file for an exemption to this by the prosecutor in the court.
Vaccines have been proven to not be what they are touted to be. Instead of aiding the immune system, they actually suppress it. There are proven health risks when they are used, especially in young children. The mercury alone is bad enough, which, in more and more cases comes with the wonderful side effect of autism. Vaccines are a cocktail of toxic substances that you wouldn't want to put in your body. The Pharma corps know this since they had themselves indemnified in one of the bills that was made law in recent years.
Even the state attorney Glen Ivey doesn't buy the "vaccines are good for you" lie. He has refused to vaccinate his children. No one is going after Mr. Ivey. Position hath its priviledges.
This is just an intro to this massively misscarried piece of injustice. For more on this I suggest the following links:

Compulsory Vaccination In New Jersey
Bit by Bit Big Pharma is Mandated Into Our Lives
It happened in Maryland, now New Jersey. Merck has received the best of all Christmas gifts, access to more childrens bodies.
The flu vaccine is now required for preschoolers and the pertussis and meningitis vaccines for 6th graders. Yes, the most vulnerable of us to nerve damage from mercury in the vaccines will be getting theirs. The Commissioner of Health, Dr. Fred Jacobs, noted that he was concerned about protecting "working moms" from the problems they would face if their kids got sick. How very thoughful of him. But, I bet it will be worse if a child is permanently damaged (autism or any of the other vaccine injuries: asthma, auto-immune disease, ADD/ADHD, or all the other cataclysmic - and now emerging - reactions to from these vaccines) and not recourse if that happens. Pharmaceutical companies cannot be sued! Big katchingies especially in the midst of the Vioxx scandal and payouts.
There might even be an emerging conflict of interest developing on this as well since Merck's HQ is in Whitehouse Station, NJ. The coincidence is that Jacobs is leaving his post at the end of December, ostensibly for "personal" reasons. I'm just waiting to see if he ends up on the board of Merck or something similar. We shall surely see.
So which state will step up for poor Pharmaceutical companies at our expense next? Anyone care to take a wild guess?

Don't Irradiate My Supplements
Killing Their Effectiveness
I have just received an alert that I just couldn't ignore. The FDA is bowing yet again to big industry and wants to irradiate all supplements when it is not needed. I guess if you can't at first ban them, then make them unusable, which irradiation will do. They want to use 3 to 30 times higher that is currently allowed for all but two food categories. Talk about overkill.

Pediatricians, ABC and Censorship: Facts Are Scarier Than Fiction
By: David Kirby
Posted January 27, 2008 | 04:19 PM (EST)
On Monday, the American Academy of Pediatrics will release the contents of a foreboding letter sent last week to ABC/Disney executives, demanding they cancel the January 31 premiere of a new legal drama series, Eli Stone, because it features a family attorney who successfully argues in court that mercury-containing flu vaccine caused autism in one child.
The letter, signed by AAP President Renee Jenkins, borders on near-hysteria over a fictional television entertainment. It ominously warns that ABC "will bear responsibility for the needless suffering and potential deaths of children from parents' decisions not to immunize based on the content of the episode."
Dr. Jenkins calls on ABC to cancel the episode but, anticipating a refusal, urges executives to run a disclaimer that "no scientific link exists between vaccines and autism," if the offending network "persists" in airing the show.

The Many Fronts of Health Freedom Issues
Part 1
There are many issues and many fronts in the war for health freedom. We are being hit right and left from those in authority that wish to regulate these freedoms out of existence so that corporate (Big Pharma, Big Agri Business, Biotechs, and Chemical Industries) power is unchallenged.Here are some of the main issues that are being currently dealt with.
Codex Alimentarius
Codex Alimentarius was created in 1962 as a trade Commission by the UN to control the international trade of food. It was formed by and is guided and run by corporate interests, most notably the pharmaceutical, pesticide, biotechnology and chemical industries. There is more politics (power for the leaders) and economics (money for the corporations) than science in the guidelines being developed by the Codex Alimentarius Commission. (See previous postings) To learn more on this issue see: http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/index.php
The Many Fronts of Health Freedom Issues
Part 2
FDA and HarmonizationThe FDA has already stated its intent to cooperate with Codex. In fact, US reps (read Pharma etc) are pushing Codex along to the lowest common denominator. Nutritional claims for food (ex. cherries) are not allowed or they will be pulled from the market. (Then why do we eat food then?)
The FDA is working fist (a very greedy one too) in glove with big Pharma. Ex. The FDA is now sending letters to pharmacies to cease and desist from compounding bioidentical hormones for menopausal women. There is no real reason given for this, except that women should stick with the approved drug methods instead (actually Wyeth told them so since it is the biggest producer of hormone replacement drugs). It just tells them to just do it or else.
See: http://www.naturalnews.com/022595.html
And this is coming from an organization that has approved drugs that are mostly recalled (51%) because they are fast tracked to approval and market.
All of this is not too surprising since the head of the FDA is none other than Andrew von Eschenbach, that advocate of Big Pharma and Big Techna. With the recess appointment of this individual, the FDA has become nothing more than a branch of these industries with a great deal of teeth.
Here are a few links to explain our predicament better: http://www.wellnessresources.com/newsroom/index.php/content/articles/fda_news_060707/ and http://www.newswithviews.com/Richards/byron17.htm. Can you say "conflict of interest"?
More to come....
The Many Fronts of Health Freedom
Part 3
Bad MedicineDoctors are usually groomed and payed for (tuition, gifts, perks) by Big Pharma. They get a lot of their information from them (junk science)and usually over prescribe drugs and medications. Usually the doctor takes mere seconds or minutes (is that really enough?) for a diagnosis and the treatment usually involves drugs. Many of these drugs have harmful side effects and harmful interactions. With the exception of the few, they have become an extension of the industry. Only a few doctors have resisted these perks and owe nothing to these bad boys (and girls). See the link to www.nofreelunch.org for information on these kinds of doctors.
I am not saying that doctors have ill (no pun intended) intent, but that there is an enforced ignorance in place. Also, there is so much information to keep up with and so little spare time for them to keep current, that the protocols (drug, radiation, etc) that have been set up are the easiest route for them. And the FDA and AMA enforces the protocols. Deviations are punished often. Also, unfortunately, death by doctor (iatrogenic causes) has become a leading cause of death.
The Many Fronts of Health Freedom
Part 3a
To add to the prior part, a new report is being peddled by the mainstream media that mercury (which is an ingredient in themiserol in vaccines) is actually good for you. I am so relieved! All of those mad hatters of past days would be too. I will start supplementing ASAP! Brain and neurological damage be damned!
Mercury is good for you! - US Mainstream Media Report
The Many Fronts of Health Freedom
Part 4
Mandatory Vaccination and DruggingIt seems that Big Fat Pharma corporations want to mandate themselves as a regular part of our lives. Not only is it intrusive but it is presumptious and potentially harmful. Pharmas often create a need (some sort of imaginary illness) and then miraculously have just the right drug to "cure" it. Presently, there is a trend to attempt to medicalize normal aspects of life. The latest is a bill that has been introduced called "The Mother's Act" (S1375 IS). This is for medicalizing (monetizing) post partum depression using psychopharma drugs that actually increase the rate of suicide in those who take them. There has been an increase in children being diagnosed with some sort of emotional or mental problem, some of which were once considered just normal behaviour. There are mandatory mental health screenings to stick a diganosis on this behaviour. Of course, they have drugs to suppress these "symptoms". If parents refuse such screenings and druggings, they are charged with child abuse and the child can be taken away from them.
Quote:
"Thirty years ago, Merck's aggressive chief executive Henry Gadsden told Fortune magazine of his distress that the company's potential markets had been limited to sick people. Suggesting he'd rather Merck to be more like chewing gum maker Wrigleys, Gadsden said it had long been his dream to make drugs for healthy people. Because then, Merck would be able to "sell to everyone." Three decades on, the late Henry Gadsden's dream has come true."
- Alliance for Human Research Protection
Flouridation of our water sources has gotten more pervasive. This is just forced drugging of the population with toxic chemical waste. It is allegedly for the protection of our tooth enamel, but is nothing of the kind. Studies have shown that this OD of flouride can cause dental flourosis (weakening of the enamel) of the tooth enamel in children. Also, it is a known neurotoxin and results mainly in the pacification of those who partake of it.
The Pharma reps lobby Congress and State governments. They advise on (or outwright write the laws) to shove down our throats. They own the FDA. The head of this organization is none other than a Pharma rat. (See FDA section). This way, what is good for business will be deemed good for us, no matter how many are harmed in the process (human wastage and all).
Vaccinations, being such a huge money maker, are starting to be forced on the more helpless populations, which are the old, the young, and the poor. For example, the recent mandatory use of HPV vaccine for girls of 11 years of age. There really is no good sensible reason for this except profit.
Want your children to go to school, vaccinate them. Want to go to college, get vaccinated. Want to work in certain professions? Vaccines are a must. There are health, religious, and even some philosophical exemptions allowed. But, some states want to remedy that and allow absolutely no exemptions. So much for freedom.
There are currently laws on the books that if there is a pandemic or potential pandemic, it's vaccines all around and prison for those who refuse. Not with my arm you don't! And don't even think of bringing these Pharma Corps to court if you or someone in your family gets damaged or dies from one of these noxious concoctions! You don't have the right! Remember that. I just have to ask, what do they know about that they feel that they need to be immune from being accountable? What are they hiding? What is there to keep them honest and not tamper with the medicines or just be downright lax with them?
This is just a brief overview on this tangle web of medical control.
The Many Fronts of Health Freedom
Part 5: Denatured Food
GMO, Irradiated, Factory Farmed and SuchBig industrial farming couple with Biotechnas, the nuclear industry, and the pesticide industry have definitely created a Frankestein like monster. As a result, the soil has been overfarmed and denatured. Dangerous pesticides and herbicides sprayed liberally have made a toxic nightmare of our produce. Many or our staple foods are not even grown in this country. Banned pesticides and raw sewage sludge are used in their growing. (Yum) Genetic engineering has created foods that have been increasingly proven to be incompatible with our bodies. Growth hormones and antibiotics are given to cattle and chickens. (MORE) Irradiation (now misnamed pasteurization) has sterilized and neutralized the nutritional value of our foods (the latest being raw almonds). It kills the bacteria, but leaves the toxins too.
Many "foods" are processed with artificial chemical ingredients that you can't even pronounce (rule: never eat what you can't pronounce).
Viruses are sprayed on our cold cuts (mandated by the FDA) to supposedly kill listeria bacteria that may be lurking on them.
The FDA forbids the labeling of GMO foods because it states that "the truth could be misleading." Yeah, misleading me away from buying those products. Orwell lives!
These are just a small list of items on this aspect.
There are many excellent articles on this subject at http://www.mercola.com
This Moment's Activism
Urgent Issue (or This Just In)
ALL FEDERAL SHOTS WILL BECOME MANDATORY IN NY
Act now to stop the worst vaccine law ever proposed in New York since the invention of the mandatory schedule. Assembly Bill 10942 would make all vaccines recommended by the CDC mandatory for all children to attend school and, and for the first time vaccines would become mandatory for infants and toddlers.
The bill was introduced in Rules Committee at the request of Richard Daines, the Commissioner of the New York State Department of Health. The Rules Committee in the personal committee of the Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver (D-Manhattan).
A-CHAMP is calling for rejection of this bill and is demanding the passage of A5468/S3031, a bill that would give individuals a right to a philosophical exemption from vaccine mandates. This is no time to transfer vaccine decisions away from individuals and elected officials answerable to the voters and give it to obscure bureaucrats with financial ties to the vaccine industry.
Here are a few features of the proposed bill:
Our elected New York representatives would no longer determine the mandatory schedule of vaccines to attend school; decisions made by the federal Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices would
automatically become mandatory.
All children, infants and toddlers included, in New York would be required to get all vaccines recommended by the ACIP according to the ACIP schedule All children in New York up to age 18 would be required to get annual flu shots.
All girls in New York would be required to get a human papilloma virus shot.
All junior high school children and college students would be required to get meningococcal shots.
Doctors would be required to issue certificates for every shot given and parents would be required to maintain the records and provide them to school and other authorities.
The rules committee claims that the new laws would have no fiscal impact on the state despite the necessity of the state to spend tens of millions on purchasing new vaccines, a vast increase in mandatory record keeping and enforcement for schools, and a huge increase that could be expected in the number of cases of neurological damage, Guillian Barré syndrome and other vaccine-caused injuries.
\We only have a few weeks to defeat this bill. Let your Assemblymember and State Senator know immediately that a vote for this bill guarantees that you will do everything you can to get them un-elected. In addition to emailing and calling your local representatives, please call Speaker Sheldon Silver and let his staff know, politely, that this is a disastrous idea. While you are at it please call Governor David Paterson and let his staff know, politely, that this is a horrible law.

New Wikipedia on Health Freedom
The term health freedom movement is used to describe the loose coalition of consumers, activists and alternative medicine providers around the world who are pushing for unhindered freedom of choice in healthcare. The movement is critical of the pharmaceutical industry and medical regulators, and uses the term "health freedom" as a catch phrase to convey its message.

The FTC record room acknowledged today it received Natural Solutions Foundation's Citizens Petition about truthful and not misleading advertising of vaccinations. It has been given Miscellaneous Matter Number P002501.
The Petition requests an emergency halt to all vaccine advertising until the Commission can hold hearings and approve appropriate disclosures and disclaimers to prevent the public from being confused by false and misleading claims with regard to vaccines.
Members of the public should be given an opportunity to comment on the Petition and provide to the Commission examples of vaccine advertisements that confused them.
The text of the Petition is at:

I've just launched a new site http://njvaccinationchoice.org for the New Jersey Coalition for Vaccination Choice. We are working to repeal 4 new vaccine mandates for Sept. 2008 and to pass a NJ law for Conscientious Exemption from Mandatory Vaccinations.
Please consider adding a link to this site to your blog or website - this would really help to spread the word about this cause by increasing our search engine rankings as well as showing other people interested in this issue where to go to learn more and make a difference.
Just add link to http://njvaccinationchoice.org or get link code or graphics from http://njvaccinationchoice.org/linktous.html
Thank you so much! If you have any questions contact me, Lisa Mazzuca at webmaster@njvaccinationchoice.org
