The impact on consumers will be higher prices and reduced efficacy, along with the horrific side effects associated with many FDA-approved medications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We&#8217;ve Already Won Some Congressional Support<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Two powerful senators and longtime friends of natural health, Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) and Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), wrote to FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.anh-usa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/HarkinHatchFDANDI.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">formally asked the FDA to withdraw its guidance document<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Rep. Randy Hultgren (R-IL) recently made a speech titled &#8220;Over-regulating Dietary Supplements Endangers Americans&#8217; Jobs and Health&#8221; on the floor of the House of Representatives, urging the FDA to go back to the drawing board and ensure that they do not limit Americans&#8217; access to dietary supplements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ask Congress to Stop this Insanity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Health freedom groups have devised a unique strategy to save our supplements from central government prohibition.<\/p>\n<p>As you may know, the comment period for the New Dietary Ingredient Draft Guidance is now closed and the FDA will be reviewing all the comments they have received. During this period, we want to make the Draft Guidance such a hot-button political issue that the FDA will be forced to take notice and will address the public&#8217;s serious concerns.<\/p>\n<p>By accessing our convenient\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.capwiz.com\/lef\/issues\/alert\/?alertid=60932236&amp;type=CO\" target=\"_blank\">Legislative Action Site<\/a>, you can ask your senators and representative to make a one-minute floor speech opposing the FDA&#8217;s plan to sweep many supplements off the shelf.
