This can't be too good. They have probably figured out that those who do not vaccinate rely on homeopathy and looking for pretext to make remedies less readily available. Sure there is always Helios, but if FDA starts regulating it, then what?

FDA is seeking participants for the public hearing and written comments from all interested parties, including, but not limited to, consumers, patients, caregivers, health care professionals, patient groups, and industry.

Although it would be nice to stop the use of “homeopathic” labels for those combo remedies like stress tabs that are in a mint base, for example. Not homeopathic, just potentized ingredients.

Victoria: I think this may also have something to do with the TOP SECRET TPP trade agreement. Obama's trying to get the US Congress to give him Fast Track authority to negotiate for CORPORATE AMERICA. If my hunch is right and it is about TPP, then it's BIG PHARMA and the other multinationals going after a bigger share of the profits!

Call your congressional delegations and put in your "ask" for a NO on TPP Fast Track.
