YOUR FOOD MATTERS


Why is it we're willing to accept our American health crisis, as if it was normal, which it's not, but unwilling to do what it takes to
​stop the problems from 
occurring
 in the first place?

The cure is prevention and the road to recovery starts today!

What to do? 
  • Spend some time researching the issues.
  • Eat local organic!  Or food produced without chemicals on healthy living soils.
  • Make a difference with your dollars.  Don't support companies that aren't looking out for your health.  
  • Encourage every farmer you know to grow without chemicals, in living soil.
  • Write to Congress, ask them to stop supporting approval of Roundup Ready crops and disallow its usage on all crops just prior to harvest.
  • Support lobbying groups that are looking out for you.  All the major companies have lobbyists, you should too.
  • Write to your favorite major food manufacturers (there really aren't that many) - ask them to go all organic and stop using toxic chemicals.
