I'm not sure if anyone knows about Codex, but I heard it's going to come into play in 2009 or 2010 I believe where they will stop all organic fruits and veggies? Does anyone have any information on this?

CODEX serves the economic interests of massive multi-national corporations, most notably the pharmaceutical and chemical industries who stand to madly profit if your food is controlled and your access to natural health products is compromised. We are talking about corporations that are as corrupt as Enron (and me and my colleagues would say even more so) .

CODEX would make many of the choices in health products and treatments that you take for granted today (such as Vitamin C above 200mg per day) illegal. And the purpose of that is to eliminate the competition that natural health products and clean food presents to pharmaceutical drugs and pesticide manufacturers. You can guess who would benefit from such elimination of natural health products and increased use of pesticides.

And the pharmaceutical and pesticide industries are just two industries worth mentioning among a few others, such as the biotechnology industry's massive profit from unlabelled GM (Genetically Modified) products as CODEX would allow genetically modified organisms in food products to go unlabelled.

You know what this sounds like? It sounds like the drug companies got together at a party and got to drinking and dreamt up a hypothetical "perfect world" for themselves and then someone said "Let's make this pipe dream into law!"

It sounds really terrifying, but it could be the best thing that ever happened, if there was a backlash and it made people really take charge of their health. Then the pendulum would swing back in the other direction. I.e. "It has to get worse before it can get better"
