i was reading a book about the native americans that preferred to let their horses range on the other side of this huge mountain i live next to because there is much more quartz and silica in the soil and as a result the horses that were eating the grasses growing there had much stronger bones and hooves, they also surmised that there was more protein in the grains growing from these soils so the horses were overall stronger and healthier. another testament as to the importance of soil health and how it can contribute to our health! as long as animals are being fed from a natural and nutritious source we are sure to absorb the minerals from their flesh.
i think the same goes for veggies, i think they can be beneficially if they are being grown in rich soil, although i wouldnt trust industrial organics anymore!
i eat/crave cabbage, winter squash, and a few purple potatoes(yes all raw) this time of year, once in a while a bite of onion, i think i like the sulphur, vitamin a/k and the potassium, are there better/rich animal sources of these nutrients? i am still allergic to eggs(this makes me sad they are so delicious/healthful)
