From what I understand that's really the point of the bill. How many people are buying garbage "Natural health products," that at best serve no purpose to their bodies? I know it's in vouge to not trust drug companies and to seek out "Natural Alternatives" for even very serious conditions, but the way I see it is that on one side you have the drug companies that are actually held to account pre-emptively in some respect for the products they heave upon the world and the other side consisting of companies that aren't held accountable for what they sell at all, with their sales perpetuated by non-doctors declaring only anecdotal evidence. A leading manufacturer of "Natural Health Products" in Canada, Jamison, said in a statement that the only manufacturers who should be worried about this bill are those who aren't really on the up and up.
