"WHY should we be dictated to? The freedom to manage our own health has been taken away" - your headline over the story about a European ban on some supplements (July 14).
As much as I feel greatly for these shops, and people involved in this regulation of food supplements, let's try putting that same headline on the top of a page that included the words "Yes! To Clean Air" or "a total ban on smoking in public".
I am sure this headline would not appear above either because it does not conform to the small mindedness of the bored, vindictive people that have nothing else to moan about.
