Organic vs. Inorganic

There are still great benefits to eating fruits and vegetables regardless of wether they are organic or inorganic. Someone brought this to my attention and I have to say organic would be the best way to go if it's available to you and if you can afford it. Fruits and vegetables have the SAME micronutrients, performing the same way in our bodies, if they are organic or not. Don't set invisible barriers that keep you from eating healthy foods. Simply scrub inorganic fruits and vegetables with a clean sponge and a dot of dish soap and rinse very well. It's not as bad as it sounds. Remeber your path to a disease free life is fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and beans every day.

Anti Cancer / anti disease blog

There is so much to say, however the most important  is that "DISEASES and CANCERS are better prevented than treated" ( Dr Joel Fuhrman).This small sentence has changed my life. If you knew someone who suffered from Cancer, Diabetes or Heart Diease you know this is to be true.
It's not going to cost you any more than you already spend on food and it's not going to disrupt your life. Small subtle changes and your committment is what it's going to take for you to prevent yourself and your children from dreadful diseases later in life.
Start today! Start by cooking one meal today! The only rules are: Add a green vegetable and Substitute your  processed white flour for whole grain or whole Wheat products. I will have receipes available to help you on our website.
Today I am making my Basil Pesto Pasta Salad with Grilled Shrimp, and a Mix Green Salad with Mushrooms and Red Peppers.Who wouldn't like this for dinner? You can swap out shrimp for grilled chicken breast and it wouldc still taste great and be good for you! It's so rewarding to feed your family a healthy meal... you're well on your way! Talk to you soon. Toni.
