A CASE FOR ORGANIC
For those under 35, perhaps eating fast or junk food may have less effect than for those over 35. But for those who truly CHERISH and hold precious their ONE AND ONLY body, paying for organic and choosing the best of the best will hopefully become a way of life.
Why organic? Because the soil has been tested and found safe and free of toxins and contamination. The nutrients are more “natural”, and pure. Trace minerals included, not just sparse, chemical phosphates, nitrogen. Toxic pesticides are hugely, if not completely limited. Sewage sludge, no. Genetically modified or altered, not used.
ALSO… organic farmers must work much harder, with greater diligence and dedication due to the stringent requirements of organic certification. It requires a special love, an inspired dedication to excellence, that keeps an organic farmer doing his / her work. They bring you the best the Earth has to offer, to the best of their ability. I honor them, I support them with my dollars.
Savings… You see, eating organic, and much raw, can mean requiring LESS. So that’s a savings, albeit perhaps not enough… so think of it this way. Did you buy something lately that you didn’t really need? Was it an extravagance? Could you have done without it, easily?
Why not sink your precious dollars into something MORE precious than gold… the most perfect fuel for you ONE, your ONLY body that will carry you for the REST of your LIFE?
If I had my life to do over again, I would choose:
Fresh raw organic fruits and vegetables
Truly sprouted seeds of grass (wheat, barley, grains)
Soaked sprouted seeds, nuts, legumes
Occasional delicious treats
Delicate, natural and delicious seasonings
Perhaps: fresh, delicately warmed pastured eggs from humanely raised chickens
Perhaps: Vitamin B12 if i needed it
Perhaps: Vitamin D if needed
Perhaps: Organic dates, other dried fruits on occasion
Perhaps: whatever else that honored my body, my health
i would be healthy slim… boundless energy, muscles strong like wires, glowing skin.
My body would be my TEMPLE. To carry me painlessly, effortlessly through life.
Today, organic, fresh and raw is helping save my life. But perhaps, it’s only my imagination… or perhaps, not…
With Love,
Elle
