No longer will they have to compete against the herb industry because they will control both! Ephedra was just their foot in the door! Next it will be diuretics or any other supplement they will claim is a public health concern. Not having studied herbs as their profession, see how doctors have figured a way to pay themselves for just that while giving themselves as much time as they want! All they will need is a few articles, papers or published references on an herbs' benfits or risks as they see them, to begin prescribing. Direct access to dietary supplements, including natural anabolics, has always been about responsible use. All plant seeds contain steroids for their own growth! The bill's language defining "precursors and precursors of precursors" can be taken all the way back to corn, beans and cabbage! The general public doesn't know or understand this will affect the whole dietary supplement industry, not just anabolic distributors. The question occurs why the government wants to ban one of the most common chemicals and building blocks of all animal life-- testosterone! (maybe only reserved for military/delta forces.) This works in very well with WTO Codex agendas.
Well said.I wrote my politicians before the Ephedra ban.They all voted to ban it.I ofcourse am going to vote AGAINST them all next election as I told them I would do if they voted to ban ephedra.
They want to ban anything that also raises your testerone because their MASTER the Pharmaceutical companies that run America are starting to worry about loseing money.
I salute you in your effort and I hope people write letters but the ban is on its way.BOTH PARTIES ARE WORTHLESS WHORES.They give the masses great speeches but in the end BOTH sell us out.
