Drug companies make drugs.

Many drugs are made by isolating a single chemical from a plant.

Drugs suppress symptoms.

Not everyone wants to take a drug so they seek alternatives.

Drug companies make those too, they're called vitamins...

...except drug companies don't make vitamins by isolating them from foods...

They synthesise vitamins in labs from toxic chemicals.

Drug companies tell you you're sick because you're deficient in their product...a 'vitamin'.

You try and correct the deficiency by taking vitamins.

You feel better when you take vitamins....so they must be doing something good, right?

Vitamins are classified as drugs.

Drugs suppress symptoms.

Stop taking your 'vitamins' and what happens? The problem comes back...

Vitamin therapy is not a part of nutrition, it's 'Orthomolecular Medicine'.

Pills won't fix your ills.

You cannot supplement your way out of a deficiency of real, fresh, local, seasonal, whole food.

We plan to practice together too!

We are arranging learning visits at our school location, by field trip to other locations, and through recordings shared virtually on the Internet.

"The plain fact is that the planet does not need more successful people. But it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every kind. . . It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane."

Happy Tuesday, Lots of foraging and hiking barefoot in the mud going on over here lately. In fact today I shared some thoughts while on my hike in the woods over on my Instagram. I'm finding it hard to navigate communicating on the internet because I crave and long for REAL connection. It's what our human biology truly needs. Even though the internet is amazing and brings people together - it's lacking in so many ways. I want to find ways to navigate this. I decided to talk more about creating a healthy diet since people are still so gaslit and confused about food. It's a topic that until the last person understands I'll never stop sharing about -that may be my whole life.
🎧 Read the blog OR Listen to the Podcast Episode:  How to create a healthy diet that you enjoy 
Last week, I posted a meme on Instagram that read: "The more refined foods you eat, the more minerally depleted you become!" To me, it seemed like an obvious truth, but I'm aware that not everyone has caught up with this concept just yet.
Let's take a moment to reflect on a famous quote by journalist and food activist Michael Pollan: "Don't eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn't recognize as food." This quote has resonated with many of us, emphasizing the importance of eating real, whole foods that have nourished humanity for generations.
But what does this quote mean for those of us who never met our great-grandparents or whose grandparents also consumed processed foods? How can we reconnect with the wisdom of our ancestors and make healthier choices amidst the modern food landscape?
If you've been following my podcast, you know that I've covered healthy eating in several episodes. However, I feel it's essential to revisit this topic, as more and more people are seeking solutions for their health and struggling to navigate the maze of dietary advice.
To truly understand healthy eating, we must go back to our hunter-gatherer ancestors, whose diet primarily consisted of wild plant and animal foods. Unlike today's highly processed foods, their diet contained no artificial ingredients, synthetic food coloring, preservatives, or GMOs. They lived in harmony with nature, consuming foods as nature provided them, with no need for genetic modifications to enhance taste or appearance.
So dive on in, enjoy some storytelling and some principles I share along with a lot of resources to check out!
