  1. I just went to the link and the comments do end on June 22 as stated under the topic, however all the comments are closed. I must say the few I can see are pretty lame “arguments”. I will look again to see if their is an area to complain or protest the premature closing of comments. People will always find endless ways to hurt them selves but we can’t all run around in duct tape and bubble wrap either. That being said, Homeopathy has never “killed” 330,000 people a year or seriously “injured” 6.6 million a year as does the commercial medical establishment, now, THAT is what ( “We’ve had tremendous growth in the market and also some emerging safety and quality concerns,”) gives me tremendous concerns for safety and quality with the modern medical treatments. Maybe it is REALLY time to re evaluate THEM. I find that giving my body the tools it needs (nutrition), to be the way to stay strong and healthy. I have NEVER been ill because I lacked an essential CHEMICAL. We are indeed mysteriously and wonderfully made. The day that “food” is made illegal we all die. This is ridiculous! Get the government out of my kitchen and my life!It’s all about informed consent…..oh, and control

    1. Diana Clifft-Bramblett says:

      Amen and well said. I will choose to get what I need somewhere else some how. Take out heopathics and other alternatives and you will see many more sick. Maybe that’s what they are after. Homoeopathy saved my life. Unless I am in trauma, another DRUG will not enter my body. I’ve been without pharmaceutical care for over 23 years! Don’t intend to go back.

    2. I just went and left a comment so try again.

    3. FeminineScientist says:

      Agreed! Except the “control” bit. It’s not about control, it’s about money. Pharma Money.

      1. Michelle Lee says:

        Yeah, it is also about control of everything!

      I just left a comment at the link given in the article. Not sure what’s going on, but you might want to try again. Also, I thought the comments were sufficiently intelligent rather than “pretty lame”. At least the ones I saw.

  2. Isn’t it time to stop ‘fighting’ and just bypass all this lunacy? None of the “war on xxxx” approaches work – they are a diversion to keep us preoccupied. Why are we playing (or even listening) to pharma rules? If enough people just ignore / refuse stupid laws, we can render it all irrelevant. Seriously, what other choice is there?

    1. Michelle Lee says:

      True, but they will make it so there wont be any place to buy it

  3. ExperienceJOY says:

    where is the petition? How do we support this?

  4. Natalplum says:

    I may have gone a little overboard…but screw them.

    1. Linda Willoughby says:

      Please, make your point without using foul language.

      1. Natalplum says:

        Please, mind your own business.

      2. Michelle Lee says:

        Be a grown up, stop acting like you are a kindergartner, seriously what is wrong with you?

  5. Madeleine says:

    There should be an immediate petition to sign in regard to this topic.

  6. Hi everybody, check out the Moringa tree, its powder and leaves. Do your own research – it has helped me tremendously. Safe and relatively inexpensive. I buy mine from Echo Farm bookstore, North Fort Myers, FL

    Many doctors, mine included, are now recognizing the benefits of holistic/homeopathics. For years, I had an allergist who gave combinations of certain minerals for pain, holding water, sleep aids, deficiencies etc. . This FDA attempt is in response, I’m sure, to pressures from the pharmaceutical companies who don’t want their bottom lines to hurt too much and nothing to do with medicine. The problem with this is that many of us were very sick people until we were switched to homeopathics and organic foods. Simple meds without chemical or other fillers react naturally with the body. The fillers were what I was allergic to and for years could take almost NO medications. Please FDA stay out of natural remedies.

  8. M.A. Johnson says:

    Cancer is still on the rise with all the chemicals used…there are so many natural plants etc provided by Mother Nature. But of course someone has to butt in for the sake of money not really caring about healing.
    Why are Humans so stupid and I am FOR all natural healing…not to say we don’t need doctors and nurses, because we do, but to keep people healthy and happy in a natural way would be the best. The Medical field will always be needed. Drug, pill makers(Pharma) need to get over their Money grubbing attitude..

  9. Natural remedies are where nearly all pharmaceuticals are based from. Additionally, on the arch of things, when they aren’t strong enough, pharmaceuticals are normally sought out. The cost savings to the CMS and the insurances paying out enormous amounts of money could be reduced, by frontline natural alternatives, that would eleviate most issues dealing with the bodys health an wellness. These options would not be available to the industry as a whole if these safe low level health alternatives are controlled by big pharma, or other agencies. The natural remedies have been used by the Maya, and H’men of old. Dr. Micheal Balick from New York, spent years documenting over 3000 rain forest species that have been proven to cure many ailments that afflict the himan body. The New York Botanical Garden has much of his work under their care. What the fear may be, is that the big industry “thinks” they may loose profits, and dependently ill people from purchasing their “scientificly proven meds”. Which many are addictive, and harm the major organs in human beings that use them long term. Natural vs Unnatural, why is there even a question regarding what is obviously better for natural born human being?
