The California Right to Know Genetically Engineered Food Act of 2012 will be on the ballot this November as Proposition 37.

Proposition 37 is an initiative, that if passed, will mandate that all genetically engineered foods in grocery store be labeled. Over 40 other countries around the world currently label genetically engineered foods... Now it's time for California to do the same. Be a part of the movement that will make history!

eat food
not too much
mostly plants

Avoid Heavily Processed foods,
choose foods with 5 ingredients or less (yet not Hagen Daaz who takes advantage of the 5 idea)
if your grandma did not eat it, then don't eat it
if your grandma would not recognize it, then don't eat it

AVOID HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP yet chill out on the SUGAR

DO NOT BUY ANY FOOD YOU SEE ADVERTISED on TV. 2/3 of ad budgets go to Heavily Processed Foods.

Foods for Detoxification:
Detoxification is the most important process for optimal health. Humans are biochemically unique and they have various biochemical demands as per their age and health. Human bodies are capable of eliminating dangerous endogenous and exogenous toxins from the body. Nutritionists and Dieticians are notified some top foods that provide detoxification safely, naturally and effectively.
Here we discuss some top foods for detoxification; adding slices of ginger or ginger tea not only improves digestion but reduces bloating, nausea and vomiting feelings and eliminates gas. It is very helpful for digestion when fatty food causes digestive problems. As ginger is in antioxidants, improves the function of immune system. Lemons are rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants; it removes free radicals, boosts immune function, gives alkaline effect and restores PH Balance in the body. Lemon juice when taken in the morning would flush out toxins from the body.
The presence of allicin in garlic promotes the production of White Blood Cells thereby boost the immune function and due to the presence of antiviral, antibacterial, antibiotic properties, it detoxifies the body and provides many health benefits. Beetroot contains iron magnesium and Vitamin C that provides many health benefits such as liver detoxification, improves the health of skin and hair and reduces cholesterol levels. Globe artichokes are enriched with dietary fiber and antioxidants that boosts and stimulates the function of liver thereby helpful for detoxification and also helpful for digesting fatty foods.
