Hundreds of herbal products to be outlawed across EU in early 2011

Hundreds of herbal products to be outlawed across EU in early 2011

(NaturalNews) The global effort to outlaw herbs, vitamins and supplements is well under way, and in just four months, hundreds of herbal products will be criminalized in the UK and across the EU. It's all part of an EU directive passed in 2004 which erects "disproportionate" barriers against herbal remedies by requiring them to be "licensed" before they can be sold.

It's called the Traditional Herbal Medicinal Products Directive (THMPD), Directive 2004/24/EC.

The licensing requirements, however, were intentionally designed to make sure that virtually no herbs could ever meet them. It costs from $125,000 to $180,000 to license a single herb with the EU, and since herbs cannot be patented and don't have the monopolistic pricing found in pharmaceuticals, there's simply not enough profit margin in most herbs to justify such huge expenditures from any one company.

But that's sort of the point. Governments of the world have been conspiring with the pharmaceutical industry for decades to destroy the competition by outlawing nutritional supplements, herbal remedies and many other forms of natural medicine.

what you should know about Natural health products:

Natural health products are used throughout the country to treat a range of ailments and medical conditions: echinacea for the prevention and suppression of cold symptoms, ginseng as a stimulant and St. John's wort for the treatment of depression, to name just a few.

According to a 2005 Ipsos Reid report, 71 per cent of Canadians use these forms of alternative medicine. Health Canada says $4.3 billion was spent on natural health products in 2004.
What are natural health products?

Natural health products comprise an assortment of substances including vitamins and minerals, herbal remedies and teas, homeopathic medicines and probiotics. They are made from a range of materials: plants, including bark and roots, algae, fungus, or non-human animal materials such as elk antler or shark cartilage.
How are they regulated?

On Jan. 1, 2004, the Natural Health Products Regulations came into effect, the first attempt at policing the industry. It grants licenses in the form of a Natural Product Number to natural health products approved for sale in the country.

Prior to this, they were identified as either food or drugs but as alternative forms of medicine became more popular, the government created the special designation. Natural health products are now considered a subset of drugs under the Food and Drug Act.

licence rule Herbal remedies face

licence rule Herbal remedies face

Hundreds of traditional and imported remedies on the shelves of health food shops and herbalists are set to be banned under new licensing rules.

The EU directive aims to protect users from any damaging side-effects that can arise from taking unsuitable medicines.

Only high quality, long-established and scientifically safe herbal medicines will be sold over the counter.

Some traders who sell products imported from outside the EU say their business will be hit.
Popular

Herbal medicines - with names such as Cascara Bark and Horny Goat Weed - have become popular.
But from the first of May an EU directive will be enforced, under which all such products must be licensed, following fears that some products could cause harm.

Producers and independent health store owners say the directive, passed in 2004, is draconian and skewed in favour of the largest European manufacturers.
Selwyn Soe runs The Herbal Factory, a contract manufacturer of herbal remedies in Croydon, south London. He believes smaller firms like his own will be squeezed out altogether.
"Unfortunately it looks as if we will have to close down because of this legislation," he said.
