SUNSHINE HEALTH FREEDOM FOUNDATION

Sunshine Health Freedom Foundation Donors and Participants:
A Victory Achieved Because of your Support and Participation with

www.CodexFund.com

November 19, 2009

All of our hard work has come to fruition this week. Senators Tom Harkin and Orrin Hatch took an official and public stand that CODEX would not undermine the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA). Persistence, teamwork and taking a stand for what is right have made all the difference. After months of delivering letters, educating legislators and staff in meetings, making phone calls, sending emails and at times being a bit of a pest, our lobbyist Beth Clay was able to get Senators Harkin and Hatch to include in their opening statements for the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee mark-up of the food safety bill S510 a declaration that Congress would continue to determine the laws that regulate dietary supplements in the United States and that CODEX would not undermine DSHEA.

Ms. Clay is quick not to take all the credit however, She worked in collaboration with lobbyists from other key organizations like the National Products Association and the National Health Federation to raise attention to the risk that the language in the original Food Safety bill (S510) regarding CODEX posed to DSHEA and the importance of acknowledging this in the hearing. "It really made a difference that so many people from so many states sent in letters when asked. Having the website
www.codexfund.com as a resource focused solely on this issue and focused on the facts rather than the hysteria helped our cause significantly," Ms. Clay stated.

Senator Harkin, who serves as Chairman of the Committee, was clear in his declaration that Congress was not asking the FDA to look at adopting CODEX guidelines affecting supplements. Senator Orrin Hatch, addressing Chairman Tom Harkin in his written comments, which he was unable to deliver personally but submitted to the record, stated, "Mr. Chairman, I too have recently heard from some of my constituents that they are concerned that standards adopted by the United Nation's Codex Alimentarius Commission will restrict their ability to purchase dietary supplement products in this country,
so I echo your statements and look forward to working with you and the other sponsors of the bill to make it absolutely clear that access to dietary supplements is governed by laws established by Congress, including DSHEA, and not by Codex standards."

You can rest easy that unlike some of the stories you have heard from other sources, your vitamins are not going to be banned by the FDA on December 31, 2009. But we remain vigilant. Ms Clay continues to work with Senate staff on language in the Food Safety bill and warns that Congressman Waxman, Chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, is positioned to launch an attack on DSHEA in 2010. We are going to have to keep working hard to make sure that none of the CODEX suggestions on setting maximum upper limits on vitamins and mineral supplements creeps into US regulations. Please visit the website (
www.codexfund.com) regularly to be kept informed.

None of this could have happened without the support of the following people:

The Sunshine Health Freedom Board:
President Joan Vandergriff
Vice-President Jim Jenks
Treasurer Jackie Pinkham
Secretary Kirk Bashaw
Board Member Dale Scott

The SHFF CODEX Fund Committee: Roger Price and Jackie Pinkham


NSP Managers and members who have been our biggest advocates, faxing in hundreds of letters some on a weekly basis. Every letter counted. Every donation large and small helped and continues to make a difference.

Chris Ritchason & Jack Ritchason, N.D., Ph.D., for donating the codexfund.com websites and the services of their amazing webmaster.

Dick & Joy Williams, NSP National President for energizing all of us and sending out timely information to keep the National Managers informed.

The NSP Executive Team, especially Denise Bird, Craig Dalley, Greg Halliday, Doug Faggioli and the Hughes Family, for encouraging NSP distributors to participate in SHFF and making time available at our conferences to share information.

And the biggest thank-you to our Legendary Health Freedom Activist Clinton Ray Miller, who serves as senior advisor to Beth Clay and has throughout the last year provided daily words of wisdom and inspiration and historical perspective on why protecting US dietary supplements against all enemies foreign and domestic is vital.

Clinton Miller stated, "We have won a major victory this week and should celebrate. I know from more than a half century of advocating that the battle for health freedom will continue. I look forward to continuing our efforts into 2010. As long as God keeps me on this earth, I will be fighting the good fight of liberty and preserving access to dietary supplements.

Sincerely,

Sunshine Health Freedom Board

Jim Jenks, Vice-President

Flu, Carbon Monoxide Symptoms Often Confused

carbonThe flu season is in full swing and so is the winter season, but those sniffles and achy muscles don't necessarily indicate the onset of a flu or cold. It's easy to confuse symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning for a virus. The winter months increase the potential for carbon monoxide poisoning because that is when fuel such as gas, oil, kerosene, wood and charcoal are burned to heat homes. Infants, the elderly, people with anemia or with a history of heart or respiratory disease are especially susceptible. It happened to one of April Cook's family members. "She thought it was the flu and it was not " said Cook, of west El Paso. "Her life was at risk."

"It scared her because when she went to the doctor and it came out that it was the carbon monoxide, it just made her wake up and realize the dangers."

Fire officials said flu and carbon monoxide poisoning have these symptoms: nausea, fatigue, headache or weakness.

Cook told KFOX her relative even took medicine for the flu.

"She had taken it, like, for a day or two and instead of getting better, she was getting worse and worse and worse," added Cook.

About 140 people across the country die each year from carbon monoxide poisoning, also known as the silent killer. It's a tasteless, colorless and odorless poisonous gas.

"It is surprising because you can just get confused and not know which one it is," Nathan Duran of west El Paso said.

But experts said there are key signs to look out for: Victims of the carbon monoxide poisoning don't get a fever. Several people in the home get sick at the same time, whereas the flu is usually gradually passed on from person to person. Indoor pets may also get sick and even experience symptoms first.

"It's just something to open your eyes now that you hear about it," said Duran.

Falling victim to carbon monoxide poisoning can be as easy as warming up your car in the garage, using your oven to heat up your home or having a faulty furnace.

It's important to install a battery-operated CO alarm or CO alarms with battery backup in your home outside of each bedroom.
