I understand the value of nutrition, digestion, and healthy, organic eating. Being a Flagler Organics member I feel good knowing my groceries are organic, fresh, local, and affordable. I personally love when the greens in my basket have dirt and bugs nestled inside. It reminds me of my parents’ farm in Michigan and the gorgeous garden my dad grows. But it also reminds me of the importance of thoroughly cleaning any [...]
 I just read a sweet paperback book “Food Rules – An Eater’s Manual” by Michael Pollan. I saw Michael Pollan on the “Daily Show” with John Stewart last week. Food Rules is a simple to read delight with common sense advice about food. It is a wake up call from your great-grand-mother about what we are calling food and what we need to know about how the food industry manipulates us and markets their processed [...]
 The Unhealthy Office
Unfortunately, many people work in unhealthy environments. It has been estimated that most Americans spend up to 90% of their time indoors, often in synthetic environments filled with chemicals and poor lighting that compromise their health. For example, many of today’s furnishings and other office materials contain numerous toxins. The glues used to hold together pressed wood furniture and building materials, adhere laminated surfaces to furniture, and keep floors and carpets in place [...]

Doctors Warn: Avoid Genetically Modified Food
By Jeffrey M. Smith
On May 19th, the American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) called on “Physicians to educate their patients, the medical community, and the public to avoid GM (genetically modified) foods when possible and provide educational materials concerning GM foods and health risks.” [...]
 Well, we all age and any anti aging claim is unachievable. We are on a one way street from birth. But remember, not everyone gets to experience aging. In our culture we worship youth. We are bombarded via mass media with unrealistic images of youth. But as we age, we realize that youth as cherished as it is, contains many veils and a deeper understanding of self can be achieved only through the aging process.
It [...]

Did you know that you can promote or inhibit good digestion with certain combination of foods? Were you aware that the way in which you ingest certain foods can actually waste nutrients and even affect your health in a negative way?
It is true, some commonly combined foods actually cause our bodies to absorb far less nutrients and work much harder than they were meant to in order to complete the digestive [...]
 Many years ago, when I first got into food and before I had ever heard of phytonutrients I thought “ what if you could eat for nutrition by color?” Years later I realize you can and that the organic components of plants that indicate the color contain powerful antioxidants.
Phytonutrients are not vitamins you receive when eating a diet of fresh fruits and vegetables, they are a photochemical that provides support to the seed. It is [...]
 Organic or ordinary?
Article from The Telegraph – Calcutta
A recent report suggests that the nutritional value of organic food is the same as that of conventionally grown produce. So should you still go organic, asks Shabina Akhtar
Just when the demand for organic food was increasing, comes a report that might force consumers to think twice before paying that extra rupee. An independent study funded by the UK’s Food Standards Agency (FSA) has found that organic food [...]
 Is Michelle Obama about to take on Big Food?
from The obvious advantage of organic food over conventional | Grist
by Tom Laskawy
With all the talk of Michael Pollan and Jamie Oliver lately, it’s easy to ignore the person who right now is, given her current address, the most influential voice on food policy in the country. Naturally, I’m talking about First Lady Michelle Obama. While she’s been exercising what diplomats would call her “soft power” for [...]

HIGHER NUTRIENT LEVELS
It’s often claimed that a large number of studies have found no difference in the nutrient content of organic and non-organic crops. It’s true there have been more than a hundred studies comparing the nutrient content of organic and non-organic foods and the results are inconclusive. But this is because the majority of studies are of poor quality, being either agriculturally or analytically flawed.
I [...]

Because of your support, my diet has radically changed and now I am eating 90 to 95% organically grown foods. I could write a book about how much I am enjoying these rich nutritionally filled foods and the [...]
 Wow, the more I read about conventionally grown food the more I realize that our food has been exposed to poisonous and polluting substances. Conventionally grown foods use pesticides that leave a poisonous residue on the produce. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has been combing over government studies. They have released compelling information about how to lower pesticide in your diet by selecting those foods that have the least exposure to pesticides. EWG and [...]
 Today, people are concerned with the quality of the food they eat more than ever before. Pesticides, antibiotics, and hormone injections are frequently added to crops and cattle, creating many issues and [...]
