Codex Alimentarius

The Codex Alimentarius Commission is currently setting world standards in a variety of areas that affect your Health Freedom. This includes the addition of acceptable levels of GM to organic produce which remain unlabeled on the product, the capping of nutrient levels in vitamin supplements to ineffectively low non-therapeutic levels and the addition of thousands of synthetic chemicals to food, many of which are known carcinogens. Codex represents one of the greatest risks to Health Freedom globally. Become informed and share your new knowledge of this potential trespass on our Human Rights.

The Codex Alimentarius Commission (referred to as Codex) was created in 1963 by FAO and WHO to develop food standards, guidelines and related texts such as codes of practice under the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme. The main purpose of this Commission is stated as protecting health of the consumers and ensuring fair trade practices, promoting coordination of all food standards work undertaken by international governmental and non-governmental organisations.

Health Freedom NZ is part of an international coalition calling for reform in the structure and principles of the Codex Alimentarius Commission. Codex does not folllow a democratic process of decision making and the New Zealand representation has no voting rights yet, as an OECD nation we will be expected to live by it's rules.
