The Alliance for Natural Health (ANH-USA) has announced that Jonathan W. Emord will now serve as its General Counsel. This decorated constitutional lawyer has successfully challenged the FDA on numerous occasions, making him an excellent choice to help the organization pursue its goals. ANH-USA aims to protect the rights of natural health practitioners and the rights of consumers in choosing the treatments they prefer. They do important work in protecting alternative medicine, which is often unfairly derided by conventional medicine as untrustworthy and ineffective. They’ve been working to help promote the idea that a healthy lifestyle and diet and reduced exposure to harmful chemicals can go a long way toward avoiding the need for surgery and medication. Emord boasts four decades of experience protecting Americans’ health freedom, and his efforts will include using the recent overturning of the Chevron doctrine by the Supreme Court to protect natural health access. In a press release, ANH-USA noted that Emord has had more victories over the FDA in federal court on constitutional grounds than any other attorney in history. He is also an author and columnist who makes regular appearances on national TV and radio. “The gathering pace of globalization and centralized protection of big corporate interests, coupled with the recent overturning of the Chevron doctrine, point to this being a critical time for concerted action to protect health freedom and related rights,” the organization stated.

ANH-USA has carried out numerous successful initiatives to protect Americans' health

They’ve already accomplished some very impressive feats, defeating hundreds of bills throughout the nation that would eliminate or restrict vaccine exemptions or implement unreasonable mandates. They also developed a popular full-length documentary about the risky HPV vaccine, a topic that the mainstream media is unwilling to cover. They’ve defeated several efforts by lawmakers to restrict people’s access to supplements, and they’ve also made inroads in ensuring access to affordable CBD supplements. Their efforts to improve price transparency at hospitals led to an administrative rule that requires all hospitals to post a list of their standard charges online, and they’ve also helped consumers by calling for better warning labels on risky medications. One of ANH-USA’s recent efforts is a campaign to protect probiotics from the FDA’s efforts to axe them via New Dietary Ingredients guidance that uses broad language that could keep these products off the market and raise costs for consumers who want to protect their health naturally. These supplements support the growth of beneficial microorganisms and “good” bacteria, and it’s not surprising that the healthcare industry would feel threatened by their potential to prevent diseases that bring in a lot of profits via medication and surgery. They also carry out important work in warning Americans about the many dangers in our environment, from pesticides to PFAS and other endocrine disruptors. Emord, who is also known as the “FDA Dragon Slayer,” is now in a prime position to help the alliance protect our freedoms and rights at a crucial time, when the government is increasingly taking steps that threaten our health freedom and our access to natural health remedies. Praising ANH-USA’s Executive and Scientific Director Dr. Robert Verkerk, Emord stated: “Under Dr. Verkerk’s leadership, ANH will litigate in the post-Chevron era to break down regulatory barriers that violate freedom of speech, deprive Americans of due process, and impose arbitrary and capricious barriers on access to information, products and services.” Sources for this article include: ANH-USA.org ANH-USA.org
