Here is a promising link! If we can get kids educated about growing and creating their own food we will have added huge value forward.

I don't think this will change because there are too many people out there promoting this cut throat lifestyle.  It's the producers I feel sorry for.   Here in the UK we have farmers who have had cattle for generations not able to recoup the cost of feeding their animals because the price they are paid for the beast is so low at market.  That is why organic farming has become so popular here.  The meat is more expensive but you can be assured of its origin and the ethical treatment of the animals before slaughter.  I try not to use fast food outlets although sometimes on a long motorway journey there are no alternatives and I'm not always organised enough to make sandwiches before I leave home!

Personally, between massive stress, antibiotics and a lifetime of extremely poor eating habits, I found myself with sensitivities to about every food on earth. Trust me, If I could go back, I'd forgo a bunch of Big Macs and pizzas, if it meant I could have my health back.

Sadly, we're not only wrecking our own health with processed foods and fast food junk, we are destroying our kids' health before they ever leave home. In the U.S., we are seeing a surge of adult-type diseases in our kids such as Type II diabetes. What a tragedy...

We cook almost every day. A busy morning, may just be a piece of sprouted toast with peanut butter and honey, along side seasonal fruit.  If we don't have 5 minutes to prepare this...we certainly don't have time to hit a drive thru, or donut shop. I consume several servings of dark leafy greens each day, and I always have a fresh supply ready to eat, so if busy-ness hits during other meal times...we can reach for a healthy salad. It does not take more than 5 minutes to toss on any nuts, seeds, etc. onto a bed of greens.  I also keep a supply of brown rice, already prepared in the fridge.  This is used for so many dishes throughout the week, and is a huge time saver. 

 

The choices you make impact your life.  Choose wisely!
