    ONL051 Are you eating Franken-foods? GMOs are Everywhere

    images-5.jpgJeffrey M. Smith did not set out to become the foremost expert on the dangers of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO). However, since 1996 he has made telling others about the risks of GM foods his life’s work. What he has learned is that these unnatural foods put the health of people, animals, and the environment at great risk. If you buy conventionally processed foods at a supermarket or eat at restaurants, you are eating GMO food. The fact that a food has been modified with viruses or bacteria is not required to be included on a food’s label. At Our Natural Life, we want to support Jeffrey’s goals by getting the word out to as many people as possible. Please support us in our effort to educate. Our Podcast interview with Jeffrey can be found in the link below. You can also access the Podcast from iTunes, Zune, Tivo, and Stitcher.

    ONL042 – Healthy Baby and Healthy Home

    In podcast #42 we interview Heather Tubbs, owner of Truly Healthy Baby . In her business, she consults with families regarding healthy eating and how to keep a healthy, non-toxic home. Heather teaches classes in the Atlanta area and is selling pre-orders of her new book, Raising Baby O , that will be released in June. Heather tells the story of how she grew up eating whole natural foods. When she moved from California to Georgia and needed support to continue that lifestyle, she discovered the Weston A. Price Foundation . By networking with the Atlanta chapter, she found sources for the raw milk that was so essential to her diet. As Cathy discussed with Sally Fallon Morrell in our last podcast , Heather is providing the kinds of advice and services traditionally offered by elders in the village, tribe, or community. In today’s society of isolated nuclear families, this kind of support can be very reassuring and helpful to new parents.
