Did you know that:

A drug company petitioned the FDA to ban a B vitamin in order to protect its own drug product?

Or that the second largest drug company in the world is using the FDA’s citizen petition process in order to try to prevent any dietary supplement product from making weight loss claims.  The company wants weight loss claims to be re-classified as disease claims!

If you’ve been reading our efforts to stop Wyeth from working with the FDA to ban bio-identical estriol, then you’re probably not surprised that the FDA is being used to try to ban natural products.

But did you also know that you can help keep natural, safe products on the market by simply writing Congress and the FDA and telling them you’re supportive of Vitamin B6 and that you don’t want the FDA restricting free speech?  (continue reading for The Details...)

Act now!

It is important that as many messages as possible be sent to the FDA opposing these petitions.  Since the FDA has made it more difficult for citizens to contact them, we will be personally hand-delivering the messages).  It is also important that members of Congress hear from their constituents on this important issue as well.   In order to send the message to the FDA and your congressional representatives, click here.  Don’t forget to personalize your letter.

To write directly to the FDA (but not Congress), click here and go to the FDA website (it can be quite confusing though).  A reminder - whatever method you use, the FDA will often publish citizen's letters with full contact information, do not include your social security number).
