Is Organic Enough?

I received the following 2 stories about eating organic and thought I would share them with you.

In Oregon (1975) I had an organic garden and orchard. For several years I didn’t feed my family anything from a box, bottle jar or can. We grew it, ground it, sprouted it and dehydrated it. For example our salad dressings were made from organic sunflower seeds, seasonings (all organic, most grown in our garden) and lemon juice. My bread I baked was from sprouted wheat, etc, etc, etc.

Then we bought a natural food store where we sold organic everything! I taught nutrition classes and thought we would be getting all that we needed from the amazing food we were eating.

Fast forward to the mid 90's when I have a medical problem. I go six years undiagnosed until I find Sanoviv. After two days they told me I had mercury poisoning and was low in nutrients. If I was low in nutrients, what is the rest of the nation?

The doctor’s gave me a big handful of supplements to take and six years later I am most appreciative of my well-being!

Love this company (USANA) and use almost every single product they manufacture!

Years ago, I met Dr. Shiv Chopra* at a health seminar in Montreal. After he finished his lecture, I approached him to ask:

"Dr. Chopra, if we were to eat organic food all year round, would we need to take supplements?"

He gave me a gentle smile and said,

"Sad to say, yes. We live in such a toxic world that even eating organic food is insufficient. You need supplements."
