Its time that we take control over what we find acceptable as individuals. It's not anyone else's place to be dictating to us what we can do to keep healthy. If our food had not been messed around with we would not need so much supplements. They have created this situation and now they want to compound it.

ENOUGH is more than ENOUGH! This control of food based Supplements REEKS of Big Pharma (a number of their patnets have fnished this year and they have no new Super drugs to be released and the use of Food based Supplements have increased+++ as people find that broken medicine combined with Meds that frequently cause further illness and only band aids Signs & Symptoms are being discarded and ignored by the generalpublic. This lobbying is now resuttoing in control by the few of what the majorithy want and need. Individuals require varying amounts of ingredients in Supplements and given the poor soils and very stressful lives resulting in chronic illnesses then the EU MUST remove themselves from this utger control of peoples right to choose and freedoms. There is enough for intelligent people and informed practitioners to make their own decisions not s afew politicians and Bureauocrats who are only being informed by big business interests.

Give people the right to choose what they want to take. It's not right that any one should be able to dictate what another person does with their health. I think its time that this is made more public what they are trying to do.

people are becoming more aware of the value of micronutrients and the triage theory makes a good argument for them.

It should be a basic human right to chose how we manage our own health & alleviate disease

Pharmaceutical drugs are 62,000 times more likely to kill you than vitamin/food supplements. Focus on the drugs. Leave people free to add nutrients, healthy foods and herbs to their diets in safety. They will improve their health so that they have less need of the NHS and save the country money.

The way the EU parliament is taking away peoples' choices around their own health is scandalous and driven by the big drug companies. It is not right and ultimately will be seen to be by all.

Back off our rights to choice regarding natural whole botanicals and their helth giving properties. Moving natural herbs in to the hands of big pharma will fail.

Freedom of choice when seeking healthcare and healthcare products...vitamins, herbs etc. Education and information should be available to all regarding these matters. Tackle obesity and use and abuse of drugs/alcohol...

No interference in the amounts of Vitamin E I can take by faceless bureaucrats which favor the pharmaceutical industry and its lobbyists! Vitamin E can even be taken for a long period of time up to 1000 mg a day although one normally takes less. We the people are knowledgable. Stop meddling and killing natural health supplements which are vital for all esp. in these times of pollution and polluted foods.

We can't trust the government to make these choices for us. Our history is littered with the bad choices they have made in our name and we are still suffering from them now.

Thank you so very , very much for everything you are doing . My mother died from side effects of Statins and Avandia in 2010 ... it's a shame drug companies aren't reporting honestly on the test trial results of drugs , as confirmed by many Doctors in several books .
