Organic foods
My take:
- With GMO(Genetically Modified Foods), Genes of various fruits and vegetables are being mixed to create ‘better’ variations. It might be years before it’s effects are known.
- The practice of feeding animals back to animals have resulted in newer diseases like Mad Cow.
- The the effects of pesticides and growth hormones are well known including many pesticides being now banned due to their cancer causing effects.
- It is prudent to choose and eat the right food. And Organic is often the way to go.
- Consider eating fruits and vegetables that are in season (Hint: They will be available in a local Farmer’s market)

“[H]ow neutral is QuackWatch? And how scientific is it really?”
Good question. While I have found Quackwatch helpful in pointing out some legitimate criticisms of many health-related concerns, there is no doubting it is heavy-handed, hyperbolic, and bitter all too often. Still, it can be helpful if this is taken into consideration. At the same time, I realize I haven’t been to that site in recent years. Good observations. Thanks for the read.
