OK this bugs me!!!!

I know I can be opinionated, but so what. The thing that is bugging is a recent report that says Organically grown food has no additional health benefits (see here ).

Uhhhhh who cares whether there maybe more of a vitamin punch or not. The fact is organic food has one thing that corporate farms generally can't offer and that the use of pesticides. Which we all know can be linked to the promotion of all kind of diseases. This is a no brainer. Now wouldn't it be nice if they mentioned all the pros and cons.

This brings me to a little other pet peeve and that is "I wonder what they're going to say next week about ) it's a major go around here and sometimes it's a little hard to keep up. I know the media is looking for all kinds of stories but all this back and forth between this study and that can really start to confuse people in the choices they make to live a better life.

So my advice to all the information overload and media ping pong is take it with a grain of salt. All things in moderation cause you just never know what may be good for you today may not be good for you tomorrow.

Peace Out! Lily
