FULL PHARMCO FRONTAL ASSAULT ...
The Pharmaceutical Industry Pulls Out All Stop in An Attempt to Control the
Competitive Threat


THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCE FRONT...
Dietary Supplements: A Framework for Evaluating Safety...


"In this report, NAS has created so called "safety monographs" to encourage
the FDA to yank Melatonin, Saw Palmetto Extract, DHEA, Shark Cartilage,
Chromium Picolinate, and Chapparel off the market and to serve as "models"
for yanking still MORE products off the shelves.
"Its important to realize that the National Academy of Sciences is totally
dominated by pharmaceutical interests, and they're not part of the government
so they're not subject to the Freedom of Information Act. FDA often hires
them to generate self serving "reports" for this very reason- they're like
cockroaches scurrying around under cover of DARKNESS. Since NAS is not
subject to FOIA, we can't get the raw data they use to generate any of their
biased so called "reports."

In their intro, NAS says "In line with these findings, members of the
scientific and medical community have strongly advised that the regulatory
mechanisms for monitoring the safety of dietary supplements as currently
defined by DSHEA by revised. The contraints imposed upon the FDA with regard
to insuring the absence of unreasonable risk associated with the use of
dietary supplements make it difficult for the health of the American people
to be adequately protected."

Now that FDA has illegally yanked ephedra off the market, unless they're
successfully challenged in court via one or both of the pending lawsuits
against them over this ban, The FDA will start pulling a LOT of additional
products off the shelves using the NAS "model" as their "basis". We can
expect them to make all kinds of misextrapolations from animal data, and
engage in every sort of biased "reasoning" including banning dietary
supplements because they "interract dangerously" with GENUINELY DANGEROUS Rx
drugs." - John Hammell, IAHF
