Organic Spotlight

Think eating organic doesn't make a difference? Think again...What you eat today makes a difference in your body today, tomorrow and 20 years from now.

I am not suggesting you suddenly start buying everything organic-the shift required to great eating should be gentle and long lasting. Awareness is the first step, starting with 1 or 2 ingredients each shopping trip is enough to begin making a significant impact. The food choices you make matter to the health of others and to the health of the planet; to you and beyond you. Our futures could depend on it....But don't take my word for this. Follow the link below to an article in today's Calgary Herald:

This is an eye opening article about the direct link between honeybees, the billion dollar economic impact they have, and what we choose to eat. It is an excellent look at why what we eat matters on a scale well beyond our own bodies and health.
