PSA: At the bottom of page 29 of a discussion paper by a natural health product lawyer regarding Health Canada's coming "Self-Care Framework", is the following paragraph: "Under our current regulations, health care practitioners are free to prepare natural remedies for their patients on an individual basis. For example, if I visited a traditional Chinese doctor, that doctor could compound a remedy for me individually under the compounding exemption. It is not clear if this exemption will continue under the new proposals. In an email exchange I had with the Health Canada point person on the Self-Care Framework, Health Canada would not confirm or deny that the compounding exemption will survive." These changes don't stop me from offering natural health coaching from a Biblical perspective using wholefood as medicine, food that might be growing right outside your front door. But it does mean any recommendations I could have made to fellow Canadians regarding health products they could obtain at their local healthfood store, will be even less than what little I do already. General, common-treatment recipes will start to appear in my newsletter, so if you haven't signed up for it, now is the time to do so. Link is in the article. Change is here, and we can't afford to continue thinking that all our needs are met "at the store". Take charge of your health now! Unless they begin engaging in book burning, the dissemination of knowledge and the monitoring of how that knowledge is used, can't be halted. It can only be forced underground.
