Let's get back to basics!

Seriously, let's do get back to basics!
There are so many added chemicals to our food that our food isn't really food anymore, it's just food-like.  With that being said, I strongly encourage everyone to watch the food documents my husband and I took the time to watch the last few days!

Food Inc exposes where our food really comes from, and what is being done with it.  From what I gather, it's no longer a farmers job to create food -- it's a scientists job!   I really encourage everyone to become more educated and watch this documentary! 

Another thing that is very important to me is eating a low sugar, low carb diet -- easier said then done!  People today are just plain ol' addicted to food.  It is in sense the new drug.  It's making people sick.  Hungry for Change is a documentary discussing the issues of food addiction, and what is really healthy opposed to food labeling and advertisements.


My family and I are slowing getting back to the basics of food.  We do not eat everything raw -- yet!  We are slowly working our way to that point.  A few things I've done in the last few weeks is switching over to real syrup from trees (instead of pure sugar in a bottle).  Today we checked out the farmer's market and bought some locally made jam and honey made here in SC!
