So how many people avoid dangerous chemicals in food, like using organic products, avoiding chemicals in foods?
For me I a use either organic milk or milk with no rbst harmones. I try to avoid things with corn syrup like I prefer Sierra mist instead of coke , no frozen cooked foods, I usually cook fresh and home food. I try not to use canned foods especially tomatoes or beans but sometimes it’s hard. I use green products to clean. Now a days I am really unsuccessful at not using microwave it’s hard.
foods are safe in US/Canada and the rest of the western world…it’s your prerogative to use organic foods. people get overly concern and cautious. you don’t have to panick…it’s safe! at least, that’s how i see things in perspective…our water is safe to drink as well. hai na?
Az water is very bad too much calcium in it, you can see the white stuff in water, but Canad’s water is not bad. I don’t use organic produce much just milk because of rbst harmones.
this is not true. microwave ovens produce non-ionizing waves. all they do is make certain kinds of molecules like water vibrate and produce heat. zero radioactivity.
that website is bs. you won’t find any scientific study supporting those claims. even cooking on a regular fire makes cancerous compounds. microwave ovens don’t brown foods, so technically they may be less carcinogenic.
For some reason, i want chai now after reading about organic milk!! Chalo main bana ker ayi!!! Personally I think everything is tainted so eating better means cook you own food. Its the only way you know what goes in but as for organic, i try when I can.
yep we prefer the local pasteurized milk (where we have seen the cow grazing on the grass :D) and use very lil chemicals in the cleaning products (preferably vinegar and baking soda since I got pregnant) but other than that we havent done much in terms of our food.. we still use ready to eat food and are working on limiting that intake too.
our biggest advantage is a year around farmers market.. probably we could get used to that more and it will make a difference to our diet!
we only eats eggs from chicken that is vegetarian fed, i avoid anything that has too many chemicals, no frozen stuff, i try to cook from scratch. the only tins i have at home are baked beans, apart from that i do try the healthier options
