Which is why, here on the farm, we are working to preserve as much food as we can, ourselves. We know what's put in the food. And it's completely healthy.<br />Keep on posting all that you learn.

LOL<br /><br />Everything in this house is made from scratch, all the way down to sauces and dressings. Flour is organic and ground by hand.<br /><br />I go to great lengths to avoid preservatives--I think they are one of the many culprits of our society's health problems.<br /><br />We are a healthy bunch in this house, rarely getting sick at all. None of us has had the flu that I can ever remember and we don't get the flu shot.<br /><br />A good naturopath can be one of your greatest assets--do you have one yet??Grandma Tillie's Bakeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04347610921670487366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559227461484344655.post-62792041657551210832009-08-23T12:24:31.362-07:002009-08-23T12:24:31.362-07:00Well said!

"you live by yourself, buy a can of soup and save yourself the effort already!" ... and live without a microwave and a tv. I firmly believe we were healthier and happier when life was slower and simpler, and do what I can to maintain that for myself.

Processed foods and pesticides are two culprits I try to avoid. <br /><br />Congratulations on having a boss who recognizes your true potential and station in the nursing profession.<br /><br />Kudos to your college coed!! Really, $1,500 is a bargain per semester even for a JC nowadays.

She has always been a vegetarion--not of philosophy, but of taste. When we go out to eat, she asks for a "to go" box when her food is served and at the beginning of the meal cuts each item in half, stowing it for tomorrow's lunch. She does all things in moderation: eating well moderately, stopping with one cup of coffee in the morning or one glass of wine occasionally at dinner. What she does NOT do in moderatoin is LIVE...she ballroom dances each weekend and is a social butterfly.<br /><br />So, the evidence piles up, your honor--we are what we eat...<br /><br />Thanks. Loved your post. It has inspired me to return to my blog and post about my senior partner!!

I couldn't agree with you more but I am of the belief that it is too late to turn back, the damage is done. I have never been a slave to the fast food/sugar/soda craze but I suffer many maladies..I agree with you that we must start somewhere and do what we can to make better lives for our families.

The child becomes the man and life moves on...<br />We will see our children die before us if something doesn't change. I'm very pessimistic about this, but I don't think much will change. It's all about money and blaming others these days.farmladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10516462251842458511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559227461484344655.post-18282845061093584972009-08-22T17:29:21.339-07:002009-08-22T17:29:21.339-07:00I agree with the link between diet and disease.

I am no longer able to buy organic, but we still don't eat processed foods or at restaraunts. It is a compromise in the middle, but it is what I can do. :)Triciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00349785408418170356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559227461484344655.post-67991192646398152252009-08-22T13:34:37.136-07:002009-08-22T13:34:37.136-07:00I love how you lay it all out there.
