Here's Why Fruits And Vegetables Have Those Annoying F*%king Stickers On Them. How To I.D. Genetically Modified Food at the Supermarket « Kipnews. Not many consumers realize that the FDA does not require genetically modifiedfood to be labeled. That’s because the FDA has decided that you, dear consumer, don’t care if the tomato you’re eating has been cross bred with frog genes to render the tomato more resistant to cold weather. Some consumers may not be concerned with eating Frankenfood, but for those who are, here’s how to determine if the fruits and vegetables you’re buying are (GM) genetically modified. Hat tip to Marion Owen for her valuable information. Here’s how it works: For conventionally grown fruit, (grown with chemicals inputs), the PLU codeon the sticker consists of four numbers.
Organically grown fruit has a five-numeral PLU prefaced by the number 9. Genetically engineered (GM) fruit has a five-numeral PLU prefaced by the number 8. For example: A conventionally grown banana would be: 4011 An organic banana would be: 94011 A genetically engineered (GE or GMO) banana would be: 84011 We say “Eat healthy, buy or grow organic”. 5 Foods To Supercharge Your Morning Smoothie.

Hannah’s Story: 2 Years on GAPS Diet Reverses Autism. By Cara Comini of Health, Home, and Happiness I knew my daughter Hannah had autism when she was only 12 months old although she wasn’t professionally diagnosed until age 4.
Now at 6 years old, after being on the GAPS Diet for 2 1/2 years, Hannah no longer carries an autism diagnosis and the progress she has made has been nothing short of life changing. What’s more, Hannah has successfully transitioned off of GAPS in recent months and is now eating a normal traditional diet which includes grains and starches – with no regression or recurrence of symptoms! For those of you new to GAPS, it stands for Gut and Psychology Syndrome. In a nutshell, the GAPS Diet cuts out grains, sugar, and starch, and adds in foods rich in probiotics, healthy fats, and amino acids needed to heal and seal the gut wall. Yes, even autism! Hannah’s Story I started by keeping her on a Weston A. All this food is allowed on the GAPS diet, see the meal plans for recipes Starting GAPS Continuing GAPS as it was needed About Cara. Élevage urbain: appel à la prudence | Charles Côté.
Montréal a tout intérêt à encourager plusieurs formes d'agriculture urbaine, comme la plantation d'arbres fruitiers et les serres commerciales sur les toits, mais devrait avancer prudemment en ce qui concerne l'élevage, notamment des poules. C'est ce qui ressort du rapport rédigé par l'Office de consultation publique de Montréal (OCPM) sur l'état de l'agriculture urbaine à Montréal, publié hier. L'OCPM a constaté que «l'agriculture urbaine est un phénomène d'une ampleur sous-estimée, qui implique un très grand nombre de Montréalais et répond à des besoins multiples de santé, d'intégration sociale, de lutte à la pauvreté et de développement durable». La commission est d'ailleurs convaincue que la Ville devra s'y intéresser. Elle recommande même à la Ville «d'évaluer la possibilité d'introduire un nouvel usage «agriculture urbaine» dans la réglementation d'urbanisme».

Photo credit: CoCreatr/Creative CommonsThis guest post was written by Robin Marty, a writer for Care2 Causes.
As if we needed another excuse to have some chocolate, new research shows that it may be an effective cough suppressant, too.New Scientist reports: An ingredient in chocolate may actually be a more effective cough medicine than traditional remedies, a new study suggests.And not only that, the UK-based research showed that the cocoa-derived compound had none of the side effects associated with standard drug treatments for persistent coughs.
"These sorts of coughs, often lasting for weeks after a viral infection, can be difficult to treat, especially since it is not possible to give large doses of opiate-based medication to patients due to the side effects," says Peter Barnes, professor of thoracic medicine at Imperial College London, UK, who led the study. In the study, the testers were given theobromine, a component of chocolate, codeine, or a placebo. Foodspotting Makes Finding Your Favorite Foods Even Easier.

Redesigning the Nutrition Label: Here's One Scientist's Clever Proposal Redesigning the Nutrition Label: Here's One Scientist's Clever Proposal | Design on GOOD. Nutrition labels can be a little like art galleries, or condoms. We know where they are. We’re happy they’re there. But too many of us don’t bother using them. So, we're hoping you can help us change that. This is the last week for sending in ideas for redesigning the nutrition label, the mandated, standardized guide to the calories, fats, and sugars in packaged foods, that, as Fast Company's Suzanne LaBarre put it, “has got the visual charm of a Microsoft spreadsheet and the readability of Beowulf.”
Our friends at News21 have helped us put together a talented team of judges, including Michael Jacobson of the Center for Science in the Public Interest. In 2009, Jacobson proposed the above design tweaks to the current Nutrition Facts label. Rethink the Food Label is an ongoing collaboration with GOOD and News21. Likes.com.

I’m just gonna come right out and say it. That’s right. You heard me. I LOVE WHITE RICE. I’m getting pretty sick of people lumping together white rice in the same category as other “refined carbs” such as that oh-so-scary white flour and sugar on which people blame every single disease and disorder known to man. Eye. “Cut out those refined carbs!
Well I say, think again, healthy diet dogma-spreaders. Rice is delightful. White Rice vs Brown Rice Are you convinced that brown rice truly is superior to white? Brown rice is brown because it’s got the bran on it. The germ is extremely susceptible to rancidity, which is bad because of the very high content of polyunsaturated fat it contains, which is easily oxidized, and leads to all sorts of problematic reactions in the body. The bran is good for pretty much nothing but fiber. Many people eat way, way too much fiber, which can lead to serious digestive disorders, and even colon cancer. Fiber. Oh, alright, fine.

Je suis au symposium Terroir, à Toronto, un événement annuel de discussion sur toutes sortes de thèmes alimentaires organisé depuis sept ans par Arlene Stein. La salle est remplie de chefs, de producteurs, de clients, de journalistes, de penseurs, de multiples invités internationaux prestigieux. Et un thème revient depuis un moment: qui a accès à cette nourriture bio, éthique, naturelle et généralement anti-industrielle propre et juste dont on parle sans cesse depuis que le mouvement Slow Food a lancé sur la scène mondiale une vaste réflexion sur la qualité de ce qu'on mange?
La vérité, affirme Nick Saul, un des conférenciers, coordonnateur d'un nouveau groupe de centres alimentaires communautaires, c'est que «les pauvres ont été laissés pour compte dans une révolution menée d'abord et avant tout par les consommateurs». Et les consommateurs de classe moyenne. «Il faut s'éloigner du citoyen consommateur et revenir au citoyen juste mangeur. Au menu? «On gaspille tellement, lance-t-il.
