Good morning Deborah, good to meet you. The expense of food is rising but I think it must have to cost more to eat pre-packaged and pre-prepared food that it would to buy fresh food from your local produce stand or farmer's market. I don't know if you have the yard space but another good idea is to grow your own garden. It's a wonderful way to teach your kids and it's great exercise. There's nothing better than eating a salad right from your own back yard. Also, you might look into community gardens and co-ops. My husband and I are pesca-vegetarians, we eat fish but no other kind of meat. We not only save on groceries but we feel it's a healthy lifestyle for us.
Now, I have to ask you...where is this picture taken? It looks like a place in Florida I've been.
Thanks and hope this helps a little, Toni

The picture was taken at Tom's River in TN. It is a restraunt over looking the river where people feed catfish and carp any thing left over from your plate. Thank you so much for the advice, and I will be taking it seriously. I have learned to read labels, and will be finding a health food store in my area. I don't have yard room, but when I do I will be asking you your advice on what to plant, when to plant and how to fertilize. God bless you.

Totally agree with you. One of the things that turn me off from allopathic medicine is the "band aid" approach so many doctors take to treat symptoms.

We need to look at the body as whole, and treat disease and disease prevention holistically. There's no one single organ in the body that does it all, each organ has it's function, but they are all interrelated.

It is very dangerous to prescribe treatments, even natural ones, without knowing the root cause of a symptom one is experiencing. This is where your doctor plays a key role
because he/she knows what tests to do, and how to interpret the results.

The problem with prescribing kidney/gallbladder/liver flushes is not that they are too general. Natural cleanses work, and they work well, both for maintenance, as well as cures. They have been used successfully for centuries in folks remedies, and in countries that are less dependent on pharmaceuticals. l

The problem is that the symptoms experiencing in these organs may be signals of more serious underlying problems that need to be diagnosed and addressed.

"Detoxification involves dietary and lifestyle changes which reduce intake of toxins and improve elimination. Avoidance of refined food, sugar, caffeine, alcohol, tobacco. Herbal colon cleansing using psyllium, internal cleansing herbs and other natural colon cleansing products, is an essential part of a good detoxification program and is available at your local health food store. A good intestinal cleansing program will help you get rid of pounds of foul-smelling food debris which may be empacted inside your colon. When detoxifying your colon, it is also important to incorporate pro-biotics to replenish your intestinal flora"
Very well said.

The only thing I'd add is drinking lots of pure water everyday. The simplest test to know if you're drinking enough water is having a very clear, colorless and odorless urine.
