International Advocates for Health Freedom Fri, 27 Feb 2004:When confronted with IAHF's information about how the FDA has set us up to lose in a future WTO trade dispute via which our dietary supplement laws are scheduled to be overturned in a similar trade dispute, most Americans ignorantly turn a deaf ear saying "that could NEVER happen HERE".
Failing to grasp whats happening in the world, all too many American vitamin consumers have been turning a deaf ear to my plea that we need to assist the Alliance for Natural Health to overturn the EU Food Supplement Directive due to its global implications.

ANH needs grass roots support to take their legal battle to overturn the EU Food Supplement Directive on to the EU Court of Justice in Luxemborg. Please donate to them at www.alliance-natural-health.org.
