i'va always noticed that what the masses do we should always do the opposite of. so seems like we are on a good track

US: Food safety and organic farming: impossible combination?

While the American traditional farming system has been fighting for years against bacteria damaging the crops, first of all Escherichia coli, organic producers are now fighting another fight against the laws for food safety, which provide for the destruction of ecosystems in the name of crop and harvest protection.

According to these regulations, where planted are cultivated, there can be no standing water or different vegetation that might transmit bacteria or any other kind of living thing. Even if just a squirrel steps between the salad, the harvest has to be destroyed.

In the US, in the marine reserve and biological paradise Monterey Bay, strategies are being implemented of destruction of nature, in the name of food safety and need for antiseptics fields.

Far from the eyes of people that see only the benefits of food safety, hectares and hectares of land are to be chemically disinfected, ponds are to be covered and the natural vegetation grubbed. Birds, frogs, mice and any other living thing that can affect the crops and their productivity will be captured and eliminated, because bacteria can attack the crops, because vegetables should be safe, no matter how many pesticides have been sprayed on them or how many Monsantoes take profit from that.

if you go to this link there is a test i recently took to find out if I had hereditary heart disease or if i just had the tendencies. this company gensona looks at your gene's specifically the il1 (affects the heart). I also did the balanced health test. it was extremely simple and gave me a non biaste result based on my own body and not the assumptions of another person (dr or nutritionalist). If you are curious let me know. I am really glad idid it and i also didn't have to wonder if i ate well the week before a blood test or not. (blood tests, depending on what they are looking for may notbe very accurate)  Example, eating fruit before a blood sugar test will skew the results..etc   any way,look at the link and you can read more about gensona too if it helps make the ecision to trythe test easier for you.   I'm glad i did it, it als told me things i already knew like how I have to be cautious with my immune system because i didnt absord b vitamins properly.  (now it is not so much a problem because i'm ware of it and can work on it)  )

I know this is an old topic but it was something i was thinking of while i was reading. has anyone figured out where most of the active RAFer's on here are from?  Aajonus has a few peple in the minneapolis area too. maybe a no coast thing could be an option too if something really came together and people wanted to plan an event. We have a lot of quality meat here from the small farmer and price is not so bad fom what i've noticed across the USA at least but it would be such a cool thing if this ever materialized into a plan   

Ok, thank oufor the ino (it realy is what i was looking to learn) what about the quality of the meat. I cant always find free range meat  but i also dont want to be eating meat full of all kinds of other crap either.  If i buy regular store (big commercial) pork or chicken do i have to worry about something in the rawmeat making me sick? Or is it possible to eat to much fish? The last thing i need is to change my diet get sick and hve my very close minded (but sweet) hubby telling me it's because i ate raw meat.

I have read a lot about the benefits to raw meat and how freezing it is bad. I'm curious how many people can actually set their schedule up to only eat raw fresh (never been frozen) meat. I would like to be able to eat that way but it's not  necessarily feasable. Anyone have sugestions to help or how they may have delt with this.  thanks

I'm new to paleo  eating (and still transitioning)  I have used  a high quality probiotic (it's the nutrilite intestiflora... i would take it 3 times a day for 4 weeks andthen my allergies were gone. Now i just have to maintain it i guess)  I really needed a jumpstart I was coming off a lot of medications for asthma and allergies and etc etc.. I eat honey every day. I think it's great to take a big spoonful in mineral water (just stir it in). It's ike an italian soda (even my kids will eat drink it)  I also got a great vacume cleaner. Your parents can use an organic cat shampoo and it will help. it's not usually the hair people are allergic to it is actually the sweat and some dander that cause a problem.  It is usually an environmental combination (i understand traveling places with pets) I use to get asthma attacks and seize up along with sneezing fits that left me aching (like your whiplast sneezes). Talk to your mom too about her laundry soap. the cat and other influences all make it worse.  So honey is what I use, and then I try and take care of the environmental issues like making sure the cats are washed regularly and the places you put your face and where you sit and lounge at your parents it clean   

I've eaten a lot of sushi in my life, i found the best thing to do (since i am usually pretty shy about asking questions ) is i hit up the local library cooking section and found a sushi cook book. I lived in Japan while growing up and have tried just about everythig. it can sometimes be easier to try it with the rice first to ease into the flavor, or sashimi platters are great too. The cook book is nice because some of them tell you about what kinds of fish go well to gether and other sashimi sauces.

I buy wild caught fish at the store and slice that up as well. Room temperature always makes it taste better. Even now though I stay away from lake caught fish.
