This IS good news, and a step in the right direction.
I must say I didn't hold out much hope that even this would happen - the drug companies hold an enormous amount of power and weight.
I must let my brother-in-law know - he owns an independent health food shop. Mind you, he probably knew as soon as the news broke.
Thanks for sharing, Stephen. :)
