I have previously referred to the problems with the EU and herbal medicines. Another issue we have with the EU is their proposed legislation over nutritional supplements. – vitamins, minerals, amino acids, chondroitin, and similar supplements.
Basically, manufacturers want to manufacture them up to a certain strength; and people want to take them. However, the EU is legislating (under pressure from the pharmaceutical lobby no doubt) to ensure that only supplements much weaker than this can be sold on the market legally.
I expect, surprise, surprise, that the stronger supplements will be made by drug companies and made available on prescription.
Here is an article I’ve written concerning the restriction of UK nutritional supplements by the EU.
