In The News, Spring 2010: Free Speech Amendment
Legislation to allow food and supplement manufacturers to promote potential health benefits of their products has been introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives. Congressmen Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) and Jared Polis (D-CO) have sponsored the Free Speech About Science Act (H.R.4913), which would let the natural health community share peer-reviewed, scientific findings with the public. Under the bill, legitimate studies showing therapeutic benefits could be referenced without requiring a healthy food or dietary supplement to be classified as a drug.
