Codex Alimentarius and the War Against World Health
The very informative Dr. Rath Foundation contributed to this article.
The Codex Alimentarius Commission was created in 1963 by the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization(FAO) and the World Health Organization(WHO) and with strong influence from IG Farben. The publicly stated purpose of Codex Alimentarius is to develop food standards, guidelines and related texts such as codes of practice under the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme. The Codex Alimentarius (Latin for "food book") is a collection of internationally recognized standards, codes of practice, and guidelines relating to foods, food production and food safety.
These guidelines are not legally binding for any nation, but nations that are part of the World Trade Organization can be severely sanctioned. In 2002 a European Union Directive produced such guidelines for Codex. The EU uses them as a basis for the development of its own food policy and standards. EU legislation frequently refers to the Codex as the basis for the established requirements and has already passed anti-vitamin legislation.
International treaties such as the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the Free Trade Agreement of the Americas (FTAA), would cause Canada and the U.S. to be faced with serious sanctions if they don't adopt these European guidelines. Codex authority is already part of these treaty texts. As a result, Australia, Norway, Denmark and Germany have already adopted these "foods as drugs" guidelines. Texas Republican Rep. Ron Paul has said that the Central American Free Trade Agreement "increases the possibility that Codex regulations will be imposed on the American public." H.R. 1332: Safe FEAST Act of 2009 was introduced March 5, 2009, it includes recommendations to harmonize requirements under the Codex Alimentarius with respect to food.
The controversy with Codex Alimentarius is it's hidden agenda to make all vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and most other essential nutrients unavailable by re-classifying them as pharmaceutical drugs, eventually available by prescription only and manufactured by pharmaceutical companies. One can imagine the profits that will be made by major pharmaceutical companies like Bayer, who knowingly distributed a very large quantity of their product tainted with the AIDS virus. The drugs were dumped in Europe, Asia, and Latin America after it was told by the FDA that it could not sell it in the United States, and then tried to cover it up.
In the 1980s the policy of the US Food and Drugs Administration was to reclassify supplements as medicines. This even led to a farcical situation in which armed FDA officers would raid clinics looking for illegal caches of vitamins. Aparently, vitamins were the new crack, but public protest forced a change, and since 1994 the US has had a statute that guarantees both free availability of supplements and information about how they work. Similarly, in Canada, doctors in the 1990s were being struck off for prescribing vitamins and the government reclassified hundreds of herbal remedies as medicines. Following public outcry, however, they were all later declassified.
Codex Alimentarius is planned to come into full effect by the end of 2009, it is estimated that 3 billion deaths will result from its regulations. The following is what you can expect from Codex Alimentarius:
- Dietary supplements could not be sold for preventive (prophylactic) or therapeutic use.
- Potencies would be limited to extremely low dosages. Only the drug companies and the big phytopharmaceutical companies would have the right to produce and sell the higher potency products (at inflated prices).
- Prescriptions would be required for anything above the extremely low doses allowed (such as 35 mg. on niacin).
- Common foods such as garlic and peppermint would be classified as drugs or a third category (neither food nor drugs) that only big pharmaceutical companies could regulate and sell. Any food with any therapeutic effect can be considered a drug, even benign everyday substances like water.
- Codex regulations for dietary supplements would become binding (escape clauses would be eliminated).
- All new dietary supplements would be banned unless they go through Codex testing and approval.
- Genetically altered food would be sold worldwide without labeling.
Influential in the establishment of the Codex Alimentarius Commission was Interessengemeinschaft Farben, or IG Farben, which included chemical and pharmaceutical companies BASF, Bayer,and Hoechst. IG Farben was the largest donor to the election campaign of Adolph Hitler and the biggest profiteer of WW2. Interessengemeinschaft stands for "Association of Common Interests". Together these three firms owned 100% of IG Auschwitz, the largest industrial complex outside the borders of the German Reich.
The Auschwitz concentration camp was an industrial slave labor compound for IG Farben. Thousands of the prisoners died during human experiments conducted by these pharmaceutical companies such as the testing of new and unknown vaccines. The deceptive title "Codex Alimentarius" is no accident. It was devised by the same firms and the same individuals, who gave the Auschwitz concentration camp inmates the deceptive slogan "Arbeit mach frei" ("Work makes you free").
On April 14, 1941 , in Ludwigshafen , Otto Armbrust, the IG Farben board member responsible for the Auschwitz project, stated to his colleagues:
"our new friendship with the SS is a blessing. We have determined all measures integrating the concentration camps to benefit our company."
Telford Taylor, US-Chief Prosecutor, in his opening statement in the trial against IG Farben (BAYER, BASF, Hoechst) executives at the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal 1947:
"their purpose was to turn the German nation into a military machine so it could impose her dominion on Europe, and, later, on other nations beyond the seas. They were the warp and woof of the dark mantle of death that settled over Europe."
The Nuremberg War Criminal Tribunal convicted 24 IG Farben board members and executives on the basis of mass murder, slavery and other crimes against humanity. Amazingly however, by 1951 all of them had already been released, continuing to consult with German corporations. Fritz Ter Meer, the son of Edmund ter Meer, was the founder of a chemical company later becoming part of Bayer. Fritz ter Meer also worked for Bayer and later IG Farben. He was involved in the planning of Monowitz concentration camp, a satellite camp of KZ Aushwitz. He was sentenced to seven years prison by the Nuremberg Trials in 1948. After he was released in 1951 he became supervisory board chairman of the Bayer AG. He retired in 1961. In 1962, he became one of the architects of Codex Alimentarius which will helps Bayer and other pharmaceutical companies make huge profits from human suffering.

By 1963 these same Nazi war criminals were back at it again. They had once again taken control of the IG Farben companies and strategically developed Germany into a leading drug export nation. Cutting off the supply of vitamins and non-patentable natural health products was a key strategy to the development of the IG Farben companies. So, in 1963, the Codex Alimentarius was created, reclassifying vitamins as drugs.
This shouldn't come as a surprise to those who understand that our government is largely influenced, if not mostly controlled by, the worlds elite corporations and the largest financiers, schemers like the Rothschild and Rockefeller dynasties. It seems money, power, control, and greed are always at the root of every tragedy committed by man. Codex Alimentarius is nothing more than another system of control and plan for further population reduction used by the global elite to achieve their fanatical goals.
