Jim Donovan, the Ageless Boomer

The following was provided by the Life Extension Foundation, one of the few sources watching out for health and freedom of health choices.

During the heated political campaigns prior to November 7, members of Congress would not dare pass a bill that would interfere with consumers’ free access to dietary supplements.

Now that the election is over, there is an attempt to attach a new law onto an existing bill that would give the FDA greater powers to remove dietary supplements from the marketplace and put a heavy burden on smaller dietary supplement companies.

This ominous Senate Bill—S.3546—is deceptively titled Dietary Supplement and Non-Prescription Drug Consumer Protection Act. The charade behind this title is that it would largely function to protect large pharmaceutical companies against the low cost competition they are encountering from makers of natural alternatives to their toxic drugs.

As many of you know, this year’s election was one of the closest on record. If the re-elected members of Congress know how outraged citizens will be if S.3546 is passed, it will almost certainly be killed.

To conveniently inform your members of Congress to vote NO on S.3546 and any House companion bill, just click here to go to the Life Extension Foundation site and voice your opinion:
