200 years ago Thomas Jefferson – the third President of the USA
and author of the Declaration of Independence – must have seen the
future writing on the wall when he said “if people let government
decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their
bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as are the souls of those
who live under tyranny”. Well, we would have to
say that we have reached such a time.
Unfortunately most of the control is about creating benefis
for trans-national corporations - often at the expense of
consumer health. The irony is that it is the notion of consumer
safety that is sold to the public, whilst their freedom of choice,
one of our most fundamental rights, is taken from us.
Codex Alimentarius, means 'food code' and
whilst the name hardly rolls off the tongue, we all need
to get very familiar with it if we care about our ability,
and that of future generations, to manage our health through the use
of high quality food and concentrated nutrients derived from
nature. Codex is the mechanism for implementing the
control that is effectively giving power to governments,
worldwide, to control what we put in our bodies. They do this
in cahoots with some of the biggest and most powerful
corporations the world has yet seen.
Thomas Jefferson's words have become a reality and
the liberty and freedom he stood for, a distant, but
favoured, memory.
For those of you able to make it to the West Country of England
in late April, please consider joining us at the first UK
event to be convened specifically to raise public awareness on the
ramifications of the global phenomenon of Codex.
The Alternative View (25-27 April 2008), Totnes, Devon,
UK promises to be an enlightening and entertaining
conference with a mix of lectures and workshops to suit all
tastes.
Among the high profile speakers present are Philip Day, Rob
Verkerk and Tony Gosling. The amazing Lucinda Drayton of Bliss
and hit album 'A Hundred Thousand Angels' will also be
performing.
From the ANH, Rob Verkerk will be presenting a lecture entitled,
'Double jeopardy against natural health - the conspiracy
that is no longer a theory' and Meleni Aldridge will
present a workshop entitled 'Accepting the
Mountain'. Full details
on both the lecture and workshop can be found at The Alternative View
website.
Please see the official press release from the conference

Totnes Civic Hall – 25/26/27th April
2008
Codex Alimentarius is not a phrase you are likely to hear
or read in the mainstream media. The phase simply means ‘Food
Code’ or ‘Food Law’, yet the 27 committees of the
International Codex Alimentarius Commission are advancing global
legislation which will effectively eradicate Organic Farming, in
favour of irradiated GM products; and will destroy the Complementary
& Alternative Health Community by making it illegal to
prescribe, or even recommend, nutritional supplements,
vitamins, herbs or other natural health remedies.
This
pernicious attack on our Health Freedoms is being driven by the
corporatocracy of Big Farmer & Big Pharma … yet few people are
aware of the Codex steam train coming down the tracks at an alarming
rate!
