In the book The Omnivore’s Dilemma, Michael Pollan points out that those running our industrial food supply system are more concerned with reducing production costs, obtaining more tons per acre, and increasing corporate profits, rather than the nutrient quality of food you feed your family.

 

     When it comes to the food shipped to your store, nutrient content is often sacrificed for the convenience of shipping and handling. As consumers, we are left with little or no choice at all. Even organically grown food has been shown to be lacking in ideal levels of nutrients, particularly the minerals and trace elements necessary to the formation of vitamins and amino acids.

 

   So let's harness the best of nature and use it to grow our medicinal food and live long and prosperous lives!
