Subj: FDA Threatens *Supplements - Please Read To Take Action And Keep
Supplements Free



Friends and supplement patriots, congress is threatening to give new *
powers to the FDA. This bill Food Safety *Accountability Act (S. 3767) is in the
Senate and adds provisions to give the *FDA power to imprison supplement
manufacturers for up to 10 years for *"adulteration and misbranding". *Sounds
logical except, something so *simple as forgetting to fill out a form could
get you labeled as "adulterating *and misbranding" a supplement. *Giving the
FDA to push for criminal *penalties would mean that they can strong arm any
small company that doesn't *have the money to fight. *

Please email your Senator and tell them *to stop this horrible bill from
passing. *This is URGENT, we need your *help. The Senator who introduced the
bill is trying to rush this through bu *October 12th and hopes it goes
through unopposed. *Please take action by *joining our friends at Life Extension
Foundation and email your Senator *today! *

Please do it now, we *need your help!

People will notice, they'll notice when they can't buy supps anymore, lol.
if they take such action it will remove innovation from the supplement market b/c it will become too risky to put out supps that may contain a trace of something thats considered illegal

I think Delta is probably right. The supplement industry is taking in a decent piece of the pie, but they aren't reinvesting to payoff the right folks at the top. If you don't have a big lobby that throws lots of money around, somebody else that wants your piece of the action does.
