Codex Alimentarius (Codex for short) means “Food Code.” This world food code is a United Nations agency, jointly sponsored by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). It has existed for nearly 50 years and its International Statute gives it a joint mission: protecting food safety and promoting world food trade. Codex Alimentarius have helped our world through their mission. It regulates and controls every aspect of how food and nutritional supplements are produced and sold to the consumer. It is solely about trade and the profits of multi-national corporations. Since the WHO and FAO are supposed to be about health, there is conflict of interest because In 1994, the same year DSHEA was signed, Codex had nutrients declared to be toxic and poisonous. And as poisons, they claimed people must be protected from them through the use of toxicology and risk assessment, under which scientists test small doses on animals until they are able to discern an impact. Codex poses a significant threat to the food supply, according to Dr. Robert Verkerk, founder and director of the Alliance for Natural Health. About 300 dangerous food additives that are mainly synthetic will be allowed under Codex, including aspartame, BHA, BHT, potassium bromate, tartrazine, and more.
For the Codex, if they will have conflict or they’ll know that the nutrients are toxic and poisonous, I recommend that they should let the whole world know about it.
For the food security, I recommend that restaurants shouldn’t sell or trade double dead meat because some restaurants or “karenderya” do. They sell these because they will have more profit.
I also recommend for the food security that stores should inform people if their food or the lard that they used has pork in it because we have our fellow Muslim friends and other
