Under strong personal and political pressure and against all odds he refused to abandon his convictions. With the threat of the loss of his license he started a grass roots effort to educate leaders on his observations and experience in treating patients with alternative nutraceutical therapies . His direct statewide efforts led to the creation and support of national legislation written by Sen Orin Hatch to change how the FDA would regulate nutraceuticals.
