Thread: P3/ P4 Alll Organic Food?

We have been eating mostly organic for about 6 years, since I had kids. Just didn't want all those chemicals in their perfect little bodies. But I have to say, just eating organic will not keep you slim. I can make an awsome batch of organic cookies and eat the whole batch with some organic milk and still pack on the pounds. Or go back for seconds of organic whole wheat pasta, drenched in organic garlic, olive oil, and cheese, oh add some fresh organic bread with lots of butter. You get the picture. I managed to eat organic over the last six years and still have a weight problem, due to portion control.

We tr to eat organic and local, when possible, and I definitely think it's healthier.

I don't worry too much about organic, but I'm making a lot of my own food, instead of buying pre-packaged, and I'm going to be drinking raw milk (tomorrow! hooray!) and eating raw cheese. I plan to switch to making my own bread , instead of buying from the store, stuff like that.

Oh! That reminds me. I was going to post what kind of bread machine we have at home. It looks like it's a Breadman model TR444. We've had it for several years, so I'm sure they've built newer/better models since then.

Colleen and Barb, I agree. I have been buying only organic my skin during P2 has been so clear and soft. I bought organic makeup and soaps too...It is amazing.

I am going to order the raw cheese and cream from the website Scott suggested. How long did it take to get your order, Scott?

I have been eating as much organic for years, especially strawberries, peanuts, meats, dairy, eggs, and tomatos. Some foods are more important to eat orgainc than others...I only eat wild caught fish or "sustainably" farmed from whole foods...

there is a website out there that lists the important organic foods to eat... PS. be careful from "organic" foods from mexico, there are some very "loose" guidelines down there... fyi....

They ship it all overnight UPS. I certainly can't complain about the shipping cost, either. To ship me 1 gallon of raw milk, 2 pints of cream, 2 lbs of cheese, and 3 lbs of hamburger only cost $24, for overnight delivery. Not bad at all.

Colleen, I agree with you about the organic!
Switched to organic milk (rather than just the ones that claim to be free of hormones) fruit, and beef also...I feel better etc. Many dont care for Tredeau's input but I do think he is spot on here. I would love to go totally organic but we only have little rinky dinky organic stores here. But my grocery bill is outrageous but I am going to find something else to give up on so I can continue to go organic.

I have never worried about eating organic before, but I'm going to start from now on. I really think that it is much healthier not to have all of the chemicals and junk in our bodies. I always heard that you should shop around the inside of the store. Do not go to the middle aisles of the store where all of the boxed, canned, and processed foods are.

If you havent watched "Food Inc" I highly reccomend it. It helped me really think about it.
