Would I lie to you ? Did I ? Maybe ...Read on .... I certainly withheld information ! Eat a Rainbow post

Would I lie to you ? 
Did I ? 
Maybe ...Read on .... I certainly withheld information ! 
Eat a Rainbow post (http://sabrinaswellnessbydesign.blogspot.com/2014/03/eat-rainbow.html ) Ok, that wasn't entirely true .

So here's the thing .... Whole vegan foods ( that's fruits, veggies, beans, legumes,seeds, mushrooms, etc. ) are not always perfect . We all know if they were sprayed with chemicals aka not organic aka commercial . that has an impact. Is having added chemicals/bug poisons added to our produce a benefit ? Noo. Is it healthy ? No.
Pyramid of ick !
But , there seems to be a bit of a pyramid of ick . That is a pyramid of toxicity .So, if you define healthy as the top of the pyramid ( The healthiest imaginable ) then what I said in the post (http://sabrinaswellnessbydesign.blogspot.com/2014/03/eat-rainbow.html ) isn't true because , it lacks info. Define healthy? The healthy or healthiest it rationalizes would be whole vegan foods grown in veganic re-mineralized soil, made and grown by you mineral rich soil made from composting and gardening. The healthier your food becomes the healthier the peels and rinds and scraps you add to your compost/soil is and, thus its a cycle of increasing health .

Even Organic

Even organic fruits . veggies and so forth are apt to be grown in feces /manure filled fertilizer/soil . This is also long standing practice of rural gardeners and farmers right?
Here's the problems , first of all lets talk average produce thats got factory farm run off and waste in the fertilizer and that is from highly sick animal feces as well as urine, blood, cancer growths, puss, antibiotics galore and so on .
Local farm fertilizer, that is if a farm uses the waste of animals existing there and creates it's own fertilizer from it rather than buying it commercially .. , is not exempt from sickness , blood , urine, necessarily antibiotics or anything else off the list above. They are all potentially in there .
So no having your food absorb these things is not a healthy, good thing . To reiterate what I said at the top, I feel that it's important to avoid getting overwhelmed important not to throw your hands up in the air and say " well, I can't win so, I'll eat whatever . "There are great benefits from elevating yourself out of the yuck swamp at the bottom of the pyramid and moving up to a higher level even if it isn't the tip !

Rome wasn't built in a day and our food system won't be rebuilt in one day either . It's already in the process of rebuild and it has been for more than a day . If everyone says " Eh, too much work to do anything . I'll just eat a mainstream American diet because, I'm helpless or whatever, than it never will be rebuilt ! We need you. Your friends and family need you alive and healthy! So , come on ! I think the practical thing to do is to first get rid of the products on the bottom of the pyramid . This stuff is so toxic and gross it is like the bottom of the pyramid rests in a combo of a dumpster , shit pond , and medical waste dumping center ! Really ! Do your research .
#1 These bottom of the pyramid nasty things are all animal products . This means meat ,dairy , all animal milk , eggs, gelatin, honey , and derivatives including but not limited too casein,lanolin,and whey, natural flavors ( flip a coin -it could contain blood, mucus and more ! )

#2 Do your best to progress from there when you are ready, in the way you are ready too. Some people can and would rather jump into veganic organic gardening and eating a wholefoods plant based (vegan ) diet immediately .They win but, I kid- It's not a game .
Avoiding the known gmo crops commercially replacing them with organic versions and eating as much organic as possible I think is a good place as is responsible wild crafting, gardening, and using farm stands and farmer's markets where you can share your wisdom , and concerns, ask questions, and learn about what you are eating from the mouths of the growers ( but remember they have something to sell so, if they explain to you why its safe or clean or healthy to do it their way research that with other sources who don't have a financial incentive invested in the products! )
Just keep learning, and sharing and bettering your way of eating at a speed that doesn't make you throw your hands in the air and say f*** it all but, at the same time honors your self worth .
