April 2006 Meeting

'Codex' - What it Means to You!

Who: John Hurley

John has spent the last 20 years researching nutrition and the politics of Health Care and its delivery. Having spent 10 years working for the Fauldings drug company providing GP's, Doctors etc. with a wide variety of pharmaceutical products, he has a wealth of personal experience in this area, and is also a qualified Chiropractor (Diploma of Chiropractic).

John believes that we face many areas in which 'security' is being imposed on us at the expense of our freedom. In particular, the part of our freedom that is under threat is our access to natural medicines for gaining/maintaining our health without the toxic consequences of patented, synthetic drugs.

The presentation will focus on;

• Establishment vs Natural Medicines - A History of Conflict.
• Drugs vs Herbs - How are they Different?
• Synthetic Chemicals and our Environment - the Future of our Planet.
• Growth of Alternative Medicine in the last 25 years.
• The Drug Industry in Trouble - It's about Survival in a Trade War.
• European Union, then Codex, then the World - Strategy and Global Consequences - What You Can Do!
