Oops, not gonna sign up at yet another website.
Guess I have to read "the whole story" to find out what "work" means in this respect.
Gonna do that now.
IT is good to see that he has done this.
Three years is good but not great. My wife, a naturopathic physician, and I have been all organic for over 10 years. It is neither more expensive nor hard to find and I live in the backwoods of rural minnesota, not NYC.
I liked the trick of looking for bar codes on food that start with a 9 to identify organic. That is a neat idea. I wish the doc luck in keeping up the all organic.
It is the only way to go. If you compare safety of organics versus conventional, which has to use anti fungal/bacterial sprays and irradiation just to make their food safe there is no comparison.
Don't panic, just eat organic.
In the future Soylent Green will be made of organic people?
I'm sure organic is better - but cutting back on meat probably improved his health, too -- lightens the load on the digestive tract.
Nice to see a doctor who's willing to do his homework!
