Wot no Vitamin C? not quite but it will be reduced.
People should be aware by now that a EU food suplement directive will come into effect from 1st August 2005, upto 5000 products will eventually be removed or changed into a much lower dosage.
We're talking about simple things like vitamin c, cod fish oils.... basically ALL Health and Minerals suplements will be reduced,restricted or banned.
In France a seller of vitamins has already been to court for selling 500mg vitamin c, they say it is now called as medicine? true!.... There is no unsafe limit for Vitamin C
EU would like to ban or reduce dosage to around 100mg and you buy from their list of recommened pharma companies only.....lower dosage means more tablets needed, more money spent, more profit.....but you less healthly if you're unaware.
It's to late for UK so all I can suggest is buy more fruit, lots of it and eat less junk food, also check with health shops when any drastic changes will occur.
For US.... yes CAFTA will slip in these same laws, it will follow EU until there is a worldwide ban or reduction in health suplements, only you can actully get arrested for possesing something as insane as 500mg of vitamin c, you have until end of July for your fate.
@ALL.....you know something must be wrong when they allow something like Prozac(fluoxetine), cigerettes and alcohol over the counter, but stop or reduce products from making you healthy and live longer.
Be prepared, forewarned is foresight.
