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:

    This monument, so imposing and tasteful, fittingly typifies the grand and symmetrical character of him in whose honor it has been builded. His was “the arduous greatness of things done.” No friendly hands constructed and placed for his ambition a ladder upon which he might climb. His own brave hands framed and nailed the cleats upon which he climbed to the heights of public usefulness and fame.
    Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)

    The belief in a supernatural source of evil is not necessary; men alone are quite capable of every wickedness.
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
