Dietary Supplement Trade Group Promotes Food Coloring Use

The International Alliance for Dietary/Food Supplement Associations (IADSA) is actively supporting the use of food coloring in dietary supplements, guidelines that are being written up for the proposed Codex guidelines that pose a grave threat to free access to dietary supplements in America.

"Our aim is to ensure that the adopted levels are both safe for consumers and consistent with those widely used by the global food supplement industry," said David Pineda, IADSA's Director of Regulatory Affairs.

Excuse me Mr. Pinhead, food coloring comes from coal tar and is a poison. It has no business being in dietary supplements in any amount. The only people who put it in dietary supplements are big drug companies that make vitamins (Bayer - One-A-Day and Wyeth – Centrum). I wouldn't put food-color containing vitamins in my body even if they were the last supplements left on earth - which is the goal of Codex. It is obvious that IADSA and Codex are nothing but European drug company efforts to control the sales of nutrients in America and around the world, ensuring that garbage synthetic vitamins are sold as natural and junk chemicals are allowed in products.

When will the traitors in the U.S. trade groups wake up. The Natural Products Association (NPA, formerly NNFA) is a member of IADSA and has supported the IADSA/Big Pharma positions. NPA is leading its members down a booby-trapped path that has nothing to do with the principles of natural health. NPA is failing to warn its members regarding the extreme dangers CODEX poses to Americans.
