Looming on the Horizon is also a Scheme to Regulate Supplements GloballyBy Scott C. Tips, NHF PresidentDecember 3, 2024 On my way to Geneva for Codex meeting Under overcast skies but with Winter’s icy grip not yet present, the 47th session of the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) met for six days from November 25-30, 2024, in Geneva, Switzerland at the CICG hall. CAC Chairman Steve Wearne presided over his last meeting as he was unfortunately termed out after three years and could not … [Read more...] about ASPARTAME, PESTICIDES, AND NEW CODEX LEADERSHIP

Ban BioWeaponization Research & Investigate Public Health’s COVID-19 Corruption
Americans Must Not Permit Another Weaponized Pandemic Abolish Biolab Weaponization and create an independent Commission to investigate Public Health Regulatory Capture One of the big changes following the year-long COVID-19 hysteria is the absolute decline in vaccine enthusiasm, with majorities of health professionals flatly refusing the shot in institutions worldwide [1], and former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Scott Gottlieb admitting most Americans don’t want the experimental … [Read more...] about Ban BioWeaponization Research & Investigate Public Health’s COVID-19 Corruption
Restoring Trust in Health Authorities
By devolving National Health Bureaucracy to the 50 states, and clarifying Medical Freedom for All The harm committed by America’s government against many millions of its own people in response to the 2020 COVID-19 hysteria made only the last straw in a train of abuses from a century of federal involvement in healthcare. Trust has collapsed with health authorities, so the time has come to respect the 1824 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Ogden when Chief Justice Marshall wrote, “Reserved … [Read more...] about Restoring Trust in Health Authorities
Stop FDA Threat to Consumer-preferred Dietary Supplements
The 86% of Americans using dietary supplements will not be pleased to learn that Congress and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are colluding to threaten consumer access to cherished, natural health care – and during a declared Emergency when supplements rise in importance to save lives.[1] Will you please cosign Representative Duncan’s letter urging deletion of the “Dietary Supplement Listing Act” from the FDA User Fee Reauthorization bill (S. 4348)? When considering government … [Read more...] about Stop FDA Threat to Consumer-preferred Dietary Supplements
Make pHARMa Liable for Vaccine Harms!
Life insurers found 40% excess deaths in 2022 (pointing to COVID-19 vaccination), which has led over half of Americans to admit in a Rasmussen poll that they fear vaccine injury.[1,2] Government and corporations mandated these vaccinations for doctors, nurses, soldiers, pilots, workers, and ever-younger students. Now, families are learning to their chagrin that the “Vaccine Court” set up for COVID-19 vaccination injuries contains fatal flaws rendering compensation nearly impossible.[3] For … [Read more...] about Make pHARMa Liable for Vaccine Harms!
Demand Safe, Non-Wireless Utility Meters
Utilities can Spy & Coerce Behavior with Dangerous Meters for Gas, Electricity & Water Right before the 2022 Thanksgiving holiday, an electricity monopoly left half a dozen families without power because they preferred not to be polluted with Radio Frequency Microwave Radiation (RFMR) emanating from a Smart Utility Meter.1 After a 2009 law in response to the Great Recession included a provision unleashing smart meters allegedly to “conserve energy,” Americans revolted, leading to … [Read more...] about Demand Safe, Non-Wireless Utility Meters
Protect Nutritional Supplements from State Over-Regulation
Every year respiratory diseases kill many hundreds of thousands of Americans. Yet, even despite the added respiratory problems induced by COVID-19, the government has never promoted the type of prevention, such as nutritional supplementation, that could boost immunity. Worse, the Federal government and several States are proposing punitive policies to hurt supplement access. We need to mount strong opposition to these attacks upon our health, and extract a new commitment from taxpayer-funded … [Read more...] about Protect Nutritional Supplements from State Over-Regulation
End Vaxx Coercion in States
One of the big changes following the year-long COVID-19 hysteria is the absolute decline in vaccine enthusiasm, with majorities of health professionals flatly refusing the shot in institutions worldwide [1], and former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Scott Gottlieb admitting most Americans don’t want the experimental shot.[2] With threats of vaccine mandates and individual, physical tracking in order for any of us to carry out life’s basic requirements – such as working, traveling, and … [Read more...] about End Vaxx Coercion in States
Expand HSAs & Insurance Alternatives for Patient Empowerment
In response to the declared pandemic, Congress passed in 2020 a law (the “CARES” Act) that expanded a popular health benefit (“Health Savings Accounts”) to subsidize medicines bought “Over-The-Counter” (OTC), i.e., without having to get a doctor’s prescription to purchase. It was thought easing patients’ access to medicine via OTC would stem harm from the pandemic.[1] But what about natural treatments like dietary supplements? The National Institutes of Health (NIH) found 90% of COVID-19 deaths … [Read more...] about Expand HSAs & Insurance Alternatives for Patient Empowerment
End Licensing Barrier to Better Practitioners
States should enact Safe Harbors & Competitive Certification After growing from 1 in 20 workers in 1950 to almost 1 in 3 workers today, the proportion of occupations requiring licenses today is suffocating. In 2015, even Barack Obama proposed State repeal of licensing barriers that “keep people from doing the jobs they have the skills to do by putting in place unnecessary training and high fees.”[1] It’s not just the expense of licensing that bars entry into occupations, but licensing laws … [Read more...] about End Licensing Barrier to Better Practitioners
Defund Attacks on Health Freedom
Appropriations Riders can Defund Harmful BureaucraciesDefunding bureaucracies via the annual congressional spending process makes an effective way to achieve policy goals when an actual bill on the matter fails to pass. In 2023, and in any year for that matter, the National Health Federation (NHF) – the World’s oldest health-freedom organization, going back to 1955 – supports the following Appropriations amendments to cut spending and restore health freedom:GLOBAL PREEMPTION. Defunding the World … [Read more...] about Defund Attacks on Health Freedom
Stop WHO Pandemic pHARMa Subsidies and Quit Global Government Entirely
Since the defeat in May 2024 of the World Health Organization’s (WHO) campaign to exploit pandemic responses in order to subsidize pHARMa vaccines, most health-freedom advocates have stopped prioritizing global threats.1 This has proven to be a mistake, as just in September 2024, the WHO’s parent agency – the United Nations (UN) bureaucracy itself – passed the “Pact for the Future,” pushing a sustainability project called Agenda 2030.2 Most of the Pact’s 17 goals also promote health via vaccine … [Read more...] about Stop WHO Pandemic pHARMa Subsidies and Quit Global Government Entirely
Fighting Chronic Disease – the REAL Epidemic
The REAL epidemic stems from regulatory capture, resulting in pollution of our air, water, land, food and medicine. The term “Chronic disease” covers a spectrum of diseases from illnesses as acceptable as allergies to life-ruining autism; and chronic disease has exploded from afflicting 10% of Americans in 1990 to 50% by 2010. By coincidence, Americans for the first time in a century expect to live shorter lives than their parents. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a report that … [Read more...] about Fighting Chronic Disease – the REAL Epidemic
Stop Polluting our Atmosphere!
Aviation-induced Cloudiness makes a bigger threat than Climate Change With COVID-19 corruption leading half of America by late 2023 to lose trust in scientific authorities, Americans are less gullible than ever to government declarations about problems that matter most, such as chronic illness – the real epidemic now affecting over half the population.1 The explanation for the real epidemic given by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. appears more reliable: synergistic toxicity from the pollution of our … [Read more...] about Stop Polluting our Atmosphere!
Stop Poisoning Our Farms
...via Pesticides, GMOs, over-vaccination and a dangerous reliance on Wireless Tech Many now correctly blame chronic disease – the real epidemic – on synergistic, environmental pollution of our air, water, medical treatments, food, and land.1 The latter two suffer from factory-farm abuse of pesticides and genetic modification, vaccination of livestock (and crops!), and increasing reliance by farmers on radiation-emitting technology. The National Health Federation urges opposition to aggravation … [Read more...] about Stop Poisoning Our Farms
More WIRED Broadband, Less Dangerous WIRELESS
Telecom’s Antennas Will Trap Us in a Digital Gulag Viewing with avarice Telecom money for advertising, reelection and funding, reporters, politicians, and academics – respectively – are supporting WIRELESS bills to bridge a so-called “digital divide” between those with and without “broadband internet” connectivity. These bills ignore a few inconvenient facts: * Safety: The FCC’s claim of adequacy of its limits on Radio Frequency Microwave (RF/MW) radiation exposure was remanded in 2021 by the … [Read more...] about More WIRED Broadband, Less Dangerous WIRELESS
Pass the Medical Freedom Amendment
When it comes to matters of health, the Medical Freedom Amendment (MFA) is necessary to protect all of us from the overreach of government. Currently, the World Health Organization (WHO) has gained control over medical policies and actions for the World. Each and every government member is now obliged to follow WHO’s directions when it comes to health “emergencies.” Our government is the major financial engine behind the WHO and willingly commits itself to those actions, medical decisions, and … [Read more...] about Pass the Medical Freedom Amendment
Stop FDA’s attack on Natural Homeopathy & Compounding!
Mainstream Medicine has failed Chronic Disease Government’s exploitation of COVID-19 fear to abuse Americans has collapsed whatever remaining trust ever even existed in institutions such as the government, media, big business, and health authorities.1 And with mainstream medicine’s failure to stem the real epidemic – chronic illness – families are increasingly demanding more natural treatments to gain health.2 Government should not, therefore, be persecuting alternative-health approaches like … [Read more...] about Stop FDA’s attack on Natural Homeopathy & Compounding!
Americans’ Right to Decline – and have Truth about – Vaccination
And Congress must compare disease outcomes between the vaxxed & unvaxxed - to determine their role in aggravating the REAL espidemic: CHRONIC illness At the end of 2021 a majority of voters told Rasmussen that they are justifiably worried about vaccine injury.1 This came even before the recent statistical confirmations of excess death post-COVID-19 vaccination.2 Indeed, 90% of Americans had rejected COVID-19’s booster late in 2022.3 Why then is the media still promoting vaccination and … [Read more...] about Americans’ Right to Decline – and have Truth about – Vaccination

Tips, NHF President I first met Durk Pearson and his new wife Sandy Shaw 55 years ago at a Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) convention in Saint Louis, Missouri. Durk and Sandy had just turned 26.
