It do think thought that both animal products and any refined foods should make up only a small part of our diets. As for organics, I think the higher up the food chain your go the more difference they will make, as pesticides and other chemical residues will be more concentrated.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12409740378011990132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839866588118166315.post-55045005798289579522009-02-14T21:08:00.000-08:002009-02-14T21:08:00.000-08:00Not to be disagreeable, but meat has its place. We...Not to be disagreeable, but meat has its place. We have been fortunate to have organic meat this year---a friend raised the cow---and it has made a huge difference! I've always tried to cut down on how much red meat we have, but having grass-fed beef has made a huge difference to both me and my daughter. I have recently suspected she may be iron poor, and I know I have been clinically anemic in the recent past. That in spite of the vegetables and supplements I have taken. Organic meat is easily assimilated by our bodies. All five of us have been healthier this year than in recent years, and I credit the meat we have been eating to a large degree.3 for schoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02512647913767303288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839866588118166315.post-85157911348377265382009-02-14T21:06:00.000-08:002009-02-14T21:06:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.3 for schoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02512647913767303288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839866588118166315.post-76315763948783397212009-02-13T08:20:00.000-08:002009-02-13T08:20:00.000-08:00This has been a terrible year for sickness for us ...This has been a terrible year for sickness for us too - I hope you guys feel better soon.<BR/><BR/>This sounds like a great book, I'm gonna have to check it out - thanks for the recommendation!<BR/><BR/>KellyKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17314251373368639823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839866588118166315.post-74645594860895456562009-02-12T18:59:00.000-08:002009-02-12T18:59:00.000-08:00A couple years ago we did a modified raw foods die...A couple years ago we did a modified raw foods diet. I loved how I felt on it, but had to stop because it was too expensive for us at the time. This is why I am chomping at the bit to get a garden in this year so I can have produce without having to pay out the nose for it. I think I'd better read that book. I've read parts, but it sounds like I'd better go more in depth this time. Thanks for the recommendation, and I hope you all get and stay well.Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16703334707738126703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839866588118166315.post-44244532347670844882009-02-12T13:53:00.000-08:002009-02-12T13:53:00.000-08:00My mom and brother both read The China Study.

Now my mom is vegetarian and my brother is vegan, so I've been a little scared to read it. :) I feel like we don't eat that much meat, but there are some dishes I love that contain meat that just wouldn't work well with meat substitutes. And I really love cheese. But I agree with you - we are trying to at least get more fruits and vegetables in our diet.Mailehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01450292496855025268noreply@blogger.com
