Freedom of Choice in Healthcare, Part 1
February 23, 2016
Jonathan Emord, famed Washington DC attorney and staunch defender of freedom of choice in health care, weighs in on government regulation of medicine and the supplement industry: Is Omamacare quashing innovation in medicine? Does it stigmatize practitioners who think “out of the box” and stifle innovation? Will gifted young people eschew arduous medical training and the prospect of increasingly bureaucratized health care to pursue more lucrative and less demanding careers? What do new laws governing compounding pharmacies mean for patients who need custom medications? Do supplements really need to be more strictly regulated? How might supplement pre-approval hand a monopoly over nutritional products to BigPharma, making supplements more costly, as well as limiting choice? Why aren’t truthful claims about supplement benefits based on legitimate scientific research not permitted? Are we really at a “Paul Revere moment” when it comes to the threat of impending regulations that will curtail our health freedom? What role does the Alliance for Natural Health (www.anh-usa.org) play in upholding consumer rights? Click HERE for part 2.
