Beyond Organic

Many of us have become aware of the causes of illness related to food therefore we adopt a healthier diet cutting saturated or hydrogenated fats, sugars, and genetically modified organism’s by shopping organic.

I believe this is necessary and a great first step toward a healthier immune system and a healthier planet.

Though there’s more we can do towards vibrant health inner and outer. Beyond going to the health food store and shopping organic we can grow our own food with all the added benefits of local and organic right from the backyard. The packages of organic food’s still create pollution if not recycled properly. Even if recycled the energy output for distribution is very demanding. The needs for transporting these products produce heavy amounts of CO´2s contaminating the air we breathe and contributing to climate change.

Lets get to the root of healing. By healing our environment we can heal ourselves. Everyone can do their part in their backyard, rooftop or balcony. We can all demand and create  better recycling systems to diminish waste,  create more local food production by helping a friend plant a garden as we plant our own as well. We can all choose  to bike and move more diminishing our need to drive. Remember these individual changes you decide are also contagious. In the future you may influence your friends and neighbors. Then we will make a greater impact as the example of our low impact healthy  lifestyles  expands out  into our culture.
