It makes any natural food and nutrition illegal by law.
Well that's not quite what it says. It says they want to stop so-called natural foods from being sold as medicinal or therapeutic items without valid claims. Simply because something is 'natural' does not mean it is healthy or beneficial.
Arsenic is natural - there's a lot of it in the water in the region where I live. It's deadly.
Botulism is natural. It's deadly.
Belladonna is deadly at some levels and helpful at others.
Many ayurvedic traditional 'medicines' have large amounts of mercury. It's deadly.
Synthetically made vitamin C is exactly the same as 'natural' vitamin C.

I did see a video from a woman from this Bauman College or something and she says that if this law is passed people will die of starvation and preventable deceases. She says 3 billion, if I'm correct that's half of the world's population.
Total and utter nonsense.
We have this thing called 'science'. It's proven rather good at making the world a better place when applied properly. Even if one were to utterly cynical about the motivation of Big Pharma (oooh, scary) what possible motivation could they have to push for laws that would reduce their customer base by half? Sheesh.
