Exactly. That is the major reasoning behind all of this.
The pharmaceutical industry does not profit from people being healthy.
Herbs and vitamins are the enemy.
Pesticides, disease, poisons, and denatured and irradiated foods treated with growth hormones and other unnatural chemicals are your friend.

So there's no motivation for the Director of the "Natural Solutions Foundation" to go against Codex? give me a break.

It's about interpretation.

Codex calls for standards and toxicological testing. It says that when you market a "vitamin" or "mineral" it must be objectively shown that said vitamin or mineral actually has what it says. In addition, it must be proven that taking 10,000 mg a day of super-concentrated "eye of newt" will not be harmful. If these standards and demands cannot be met, a company cannot market the product.

Thus, codex is not "banning" or "making illegal" vitamins and minerals. It just says, if you can't show the testing, you can't market it. If you are a natural herb marketer you scream: "The testing is too expensive, they are BANNING my herb", when in fact, they are not.

If you bothered to look on the codex website, you can see that codex will make standard the MAXIMUM amount of homrone contained in any meat. Other than seeing the quote: "Codex will make hormone replacement a REQUIREMENT" posted over and over from websites selling vitamins, I don't see where this is coming from.
