Quotes

• Our food supply has become so contaminated with artificial concoctions that are passed off as food that we don't know how to feed ourselves anymore. There is so much misinformation out there about what to eat that we're bound to eat the wrong thing. We need to start teaching nutrition in schools and educating children from a young age about what it means to eat the right way. Understanding the food we eat is of the utmost importance to our physical and mental health.
