Is Your Soil Alive?

Sun, 12 Sep 2010 22:21:21 GMT

When one thinks of dirt one doesn't really think about it being alive. I certainly don't have that on the top of my mind.
The fact is the topsoil is alive. It has one million creatures per tablespoonful. Wow! Think of that. It boggles my mind. How about yours?
Lierre Keith author of "The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice and Sustainability", says "It's alive, and it will protect itself if we stop assaulting it. It protects itself with perennial polycultures, with lots and lots of plants intertwining their roots, adding carbonaceous leaves, and working together with mycelium, bacteria, protozoa, making a new organism between them, the mycorrhiza that talks and nourishes and directs".
"Defend the soil with your life, reader: there is no other organism that can touch the intelligence of what goes on beneath your feet".
We need to stop killing our soil with pesticides and herbicides. We can feed the world with organic and grow food that feeds the soil not kill it.

Why We Need Organic - 8 Reasons

Sun, 05 Sep 2010 16:22:26 GMT

1. Personal Health When you eat organic you prevent exposure to agricultural pesticides. These chemicals are known to increase the risk of prostate cancer, double the incidence of childhood lymphoma, and disrupt infant and child neurological development. The Presidents 2010 Cancer Panel Report urges us to choose food grown without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. 2. Nutrition Exposure to health-promoting antioxidants, flavinoids, and conjugated linoleic acids are increased by eating organic. 3. Water Quality Nitrogen losses to groundwater can be prevented by organic cropping systems as well as keeping drinking water from being contaminated with nitrates, which can cause blue baby syndrome and other negative health issues. 4. No Genetic Engineering Aquatic insects are harmed by genetically engineered Bt corn as well as disrupting stream ecosystems. GM plants have already established themselves in the wild. One study in North Dakota found 86 percent of plants collected outside of agriculture fields tested positive for genetically engineered herbicide tolerance. 5. Soil Quality Enhanced microbial activity and reduction of soil acidity have been shown to occur due to increased soil organic matter. This is linked with greater yields. 6. Biodiversity From bacteria to mammals, organic farming increases biodiversity at every level of the food chain. 7. Climate Change The UN-WTO's International Trade Center found, "organic agriculture has much to offer in mitigation of climate change through its emphasis on closed nutrient cycles and is a particularly resilient and productive system for adaptation strategies." 8. Feeding the World A 30 increase in world-wide yields using organic methods was found in research summarizing 293 comparisons.

Reducing Environmental Cancer Risk, What We Can Do Now

Mon, 30 Aug 2010 18:39:39 GMT

A landmark report, Reducing Environmental Cancer Risk, What We Can Do Now, was released earlier this year from the Presidents Cancer Panel. It recommends that we eat organic food as a strategy to reduce our cancer risk. The use of the term organic was scarce in the report. It states, "Exposure to pesticides can be decreased by choosing, to the extent possible, food grown without pesticides or chemical fertilizers Similarly, exposure to antibiotics, growth hormones, and toxic runoff from livestock feed lots can be minimized by eating free-range meat raised without these medications." Organic is, by definition, food that is produced without antibiotics, hormones, or toxic agrichemicals. Certified organic farms are inspected at least once yearly. They are subject to surprise visits to make sure they are not using the harmful drugs and chemicals that are referred to in the Cancer Panel report.

Organic Body Care and Cosmetics...Or Not

Sun, 15 Aug 2010 02:16:32 GMT

"A growing number of products such as liquid soaps, body washes, facial cleansers, shampoos, conditioners, moisturizing lotions, lip balms, and make-up are advertised, labeled and marketed as "organic" or "organics" when, in fact, these products are not "organic" as generally understood by health and environmentally-concerned consumers". Top 10 Reasons to Use Organic Body Care and Cosmetics Non-Organic Body Care and Cosmetics... 10. Fuel Oil Addiction 9. Spawn Super Weeds 8. Unleash Biocides 7. Contaminate Water 6. Make Us Fat 5.

Super-bugs Thanks to Agribusiness

Sat, 31 Jul 2010 23:51:50 GMT

Healthy chickens, pigs, and beef cattle raised on industrial farms are routinely fed antibiotics. Why? ...to make them grow faster and compensate for overcrowding and unsanitary living conditions. This can lead to antibiotic-resistant bacteria in humans, or super-bugs. Humans, through contaminated meat, direct contact with animals, or the environment, can acquire them. This can be tragic. Antibiotic doses are on the increase, because they are no longer effective. Stronger, more toxic antibiotics are being produced for antibiotic resistance due to over use. Now the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may weaken a regulation and make it even easier for agribusiness to feed antibiotics to healthy livestock and poultry, putting our health at greater risk. http://bit.ly/169kFU

The L-tryptophan Mystery

Mon, 19 Jul 2010 15:10:18 GMT

In the 90's L-tryptophan was taken off the market because the FDA said it was unsafe. It seemed some people had died taking it. I was baffled at the time this news came out. I thought it strange that a dietary supplement that had been on the shelves for years had caused this horror story. It is an amino acid that is found in turkey. It was a supplement we pharmacists recommended for sleep. It is the reason we get sleepy after eating our Thanksgiving dinner. I discovered what the mystery of L-tryptophan was! I never researched the reason in the past, because like most of us we accept what we are told. It seems that the culprit was one company's supplement. They were using Genetically Modified Organisms in their manufacturing process to speed up production. GMO's in dietary supplements! Wow, what next! The very disturbing fact about GMO's is that as the consumer we aren't allowed by our government to know that we are putting these things in our bodies. I find that un-American! We should have that right. I contacted my representatives and one said he felt there should be a balance. What I don't understand Mr. Congressman is how there can be balance in one's intake if we don't even know how much we are consuming. More than 90 percent of Americans want GM foods labeled. Most industrialized nations require labeling. However, the FDA has an official mandate to promote biotechnology. I maintain that good science proclaims there is no such thing as a good GMO. Studies have verified that the process of genetic engineering can produce unpredicted toxins and allergens. Allergies and asthma is on the increase. So is diabetes. The FDA does not require any additional safety testing for GM products. If a supplement as deadly as the GM L-tryptophan was introduced for market today, it would get on (the market). We need to be aware of the dangers of GMO's and pass this information on to our friends, family members, and neighbors. That is why I promote organic products. Soybean, canola, and cotton seed oil contain GMO's. Therefore, using coconut and macadamia nut oils in your cooking and food preparation is a better choice.
