Resources
As headlines swirl about the contamination of our food supply, it can seem like an out of control situation. Fortunately, there is a lot that we can do to easily and affordably protect the health of our families.
So I hope that these suggestions help to inform and inspire you.
Remember, this is just an abbreviated list of a few of my favorite resources. You can always learn more in The Unhealthy Truth: How Our Food Is Making Us Sick and What We Can Do About It, where I include an extensive list of books, films, websites, people and organizations doing their parts to affect and inspire change in our food system.
