PROTECT
YOUR SUPPLEMENTS - S3002
New legislation in the U.S. Senate would mandate that every dietary supplement would have to go through a brand new process of government review in order to stay on the market.
If this bill, S. 3002, the Dietary Supplement Safety Act, becomes law your health care choices will be drastically reduced, and many of the supplements available today will become illegal. This and other provisions of this misguided legislation affect ALL dietary supplements, including vitamins, minerals, herbs, sports, and diet products.

HEALTH FREEDOM:
We all have friends, relatives, customers, etc. in other states. This is a good way to pass along information to people you know in other states. Make sure you check your state update to see if there is anything new. I also have the yahoo group set up so that you will receive important alerts as they are released. Just send a blank email to: FYHF-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
Please remember that each state has different laws and regulations regarding what you can and cannot do when it comes to complementary and alternative healthcare.
With the new passing of a Health Freedom bill in New Mexico, there are now seven states that have health freedom laws. These are: Minnesota, California, Rhode Island, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Idaho and New Mexico. If you live in one of these states, you need to know the laws regarding health freedom, what you can and cannot do, and what disclosures you may need to provide to your clients.
There are 15 states and the District of Columbia that license or regulate naturopathic physicians. If your state is one that regulates naturopathic physicians, you need to know what that law says in regards to what you can and cannot do. These states are: Alaska, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Montana, New Hampshire, Oregon, Utah, Vermont, Washington and the District of Columbia. Minnesota passed a registration bill for naturopathic physicians that took effect July 1, 2009.
