Amino acids, essential fats and trace minerals: we need them to think fast, feel happy and experience mental clarity and alertness in school. This is good for learning. Why is it that so many of our lunches (at least the packaged ones) that we bring to work or school are completely devoid of these types of nutrients… How fast can you say “Sodium Stearol-2-lactylate”

Sometimes you need to do more than meditate and hope for the best. Over the past few years I have seen many friends that have taken their health into their own hands and have lost a little faith in conventional medicine.

This morning I struggled with a decision of whether or not to buy organic. I want to make 6 more litres of berry syrup and other beautiful fermented foods to squirrel away for the winter months. I phoned an organic farm to order 60 lbs of blueberries (I like to go big). Berries are something I try to only wild harvest responsibly or purchase organically because they can be so heavily sprayed but we are having a tight month and I felt tested. I decided to refer myself back to this Oldie but Goodie video about which foods are best to buy organic and which ones can be skimped on. Enjoy.
