		<description><![CDATA[All of us know we need to eat more vegetables. The reason many don’t like vegetables is because of dead taste buds. When one is a big consumer of highly processed foods (fast foods or eating most of your food from a box, bag or can), they’re consuming foods with excessive amounts of salt, artificial flavor enhancers and preservatives. If you want to eat more vegetables and be able to appreciate how good they do taste, focus on reducing or eliminating those processed foods! Another reason many people struggle with vegetable intake is they get stuck in a “carrot rut”. We tend to eat the same vegetables all the time and get burnt out; usually sticking with the habit of eating whatever our families ate when we were growing up. The focus of the next few newsletters will be to educate you on a few new vegetables you can try out. We would like to take this time to introduce you to “Fennel” (pronounced: feh-nell). Fennel can be a replacement for celery in recipes and the feathery leaves can be used as a spice or garnish. It’s a strong antioxidant (quercetin, kaempferol, rutin) which makes it useful for reducing inflammation [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Have you seen the scientific evidence that genetically modified foods are 100% safe with no long-term health related side effects? Neither have we. What is emerging is more startling evidence that the government and seed industries “solution to world hunger” is creating a potentially irreversible pattern of destruction in agriculture, wild life and human health. What is a GMO? Genetically modified organisms (GMO&#8217;s) are created by meshing genes from one species into the DNA of a food crop or animal to produce a new trait. Because living organisms have natural barriers to protect themselves against the introduction of DNA from a different species, genetic engineers must force the DNA from one organism into another. Their methods include: Using viruses or bacteria to &#8220;infect&#8221; animal or plant cells with the new DNA. Coating DNA onto tiny metal pellets and firing it with a special gun into the cells. Injecting the new DNA into fertilized eggs with a very fine needle. Using electric shocks to create holes in the membrane covering sperm and forcing the new DNA into the sperm through these holes. By inserting certain bacterial genes into crop seeds it allows farmers to spray otherwise deadly doses of weed-killer directly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Look at the “other ingredients” usually at the bottom of the label. Artificial colors and sweeteners are used to make the product look better or taste better.  Avoid the artificial sweeteners and colors: Aspartame Saccharin Sucralose FD&#38;C blue, yellow, red, etc “Lakes” (colors) Fillers are used in supplements to make the production easier and faster. Unfortunately, these fillers can compromise the effectiveness of the nutrients in the supplement. Fillers are often called &#8220;flowering agents&#8221; on the label. Binders are used for bulk and stabilization of the product.  Lubricants are used to allow the powder form to process through the machines more easily.  Some common lubricants, fillers and binders include: gelatin hydrogenated oil (strictly avoid) magnesium stearate maltodextrin microcrystalline cellulose modified cellulose (for example hydroxypropyl methylcellulose) polyethylene glycol polyvinyl alcohol crospovidone (PPVP or polyvinylpolypyrrolidone) potassium sorbate talc sodium benzoate sodium stearyl fumarate stearic acid xanthum gum For various reasons, certain toxic metals are added to poor quality supplements.  Some common toxic elements you should avoid that you’ll see actually printed on the label are: titanium dioxide aluminum nickel tin silver Vitamin D and Vitamin E Look at the source of Vitamin D and Vitamin E.  The Vitamin D should be D3 [...]]]></description>
