health freedom movement
The health freedom movement is a coalition of alternative medicine organizations, consumers, activists, practitioners, and producers of products who campaign for wider availability and decreased regulation of alternative practices. In particular, the health freedom movement wants to avoid having alternative health practices regulated as if they were conventional medical practices.
==Concept==
The concept of health freedom is based on the idea that conventional medicine covers a relatively small subset of existing techniques. By definition, the remainder all fall into the category of alternative practices. The health-freedom movement is based on the idea that individuals have a right to choose their own treatment, rather than having it imposed upon them, even when this treatment is outside the mainstream of conventional medicine.〔('Legal Matters: Impact of International Product Regulations on Consumer Access to, and the Manufacturing of, Dietary Supplements: The Need for Health Freedom Advocacy' ) Diane M. Miller. Alternative & Complementary Therapies. 1 February 2008, 14(1): 43-47. . Published 1 February 2008. Retrieved 25 May 2008.〕
One objective in the movement is to prevent alternative products such as vitamins, minerals, herbals, botanicals, amino acids and other food supplements from being regulated as if they were drugs. Instead, the dietary supplement industry wants them to be treated more like food.〔(Eating Well ) New York Times. Published 15 December 1993. Retrieved 7 February 2009.〕
The belief that supplements and vitamins can demonstrably improve health or longevity is not widely accepted in the medical community, because there is felt to be insufficient evidence to support such beliefs.〔(Counseling for Vitamin Supplementation to Prevent Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease ), from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. Released June 2003; accessed 28 September 2007.〕 Very rarely, large doses of some vitamins lead to vitamin poisoning (hypervitaminosis).〔(2004 Annual Report ) of the American Association of Poison Control Centers Toxic Exposure Surveillance System.〕
