The National Council Against Health Fraud - Usefulness As A Source

Usefulness As A Source

The National Council Against Health Fraud is mentioned as a useful source for information by the United States Department of Agriculture, the American Cancer Society in their book "Cancer Medicine", and many other organizations and libraries.

The journal Dynamic Chiropractic, while highly critical of NCAHFs views on chiropractic, has written: "The National Council Against Health Fraud is considered a valuable information source for many agencies nationwide. They are well networked and, as demonstrated by their past history, are able to influence the efforts of various agencies and insurance carriers. The NCAHF's ability to publish its opinions and hold these types of conferences does make them a substantial "player" in the area of health fraud."

In 1998, the AMA's Council on Scientific Affairs used NCAHF board member John Renner as a contributing source for some of the content in their "Report 12".

Famous quotes containing the words usefulness and/or source:

    A public man must never forget that he loses his usefulness when he as an individual, rather than his policy, becomes the issue.
    Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)

    Man is a stream whose source is hidden. Our being is descending into us from we know not whence. The most exact calculator has no prescience that somewhat incalculable may not balk the very next moment. I am constrained every moment to acknowledge a higher origin for events than the will I call mine.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
