Why Should We Eat Real Food? – A Guest Post

Red, orange, yellow and white carrot fresh from the soil. I try to grow 6-8 different varieties, mostly shorter to do well in smaller pots.

Real food, whole food, the way nature makes it, is the basis of a healthy diet.

This time I am going to ask you to click through to another blog – Michael Dahl’s DissidentPotato.com, to read a post I wrote for him. It is actually the first of a four-part series of posts about how cities could do better to supply their residents with real, or whole, food. I happily agreed to contribute these posts because I feel very strongly that good food is the basis of good health and that nothing else is possible without good health. I call it whole food health or a healthy whole food diet.

The subject of this first segment is why we should eat real food. I have talked about different aspects of this previously. The guest post pulls those pieces together into a more coherent whole. Please click on the link below to read the entire post.

    I love how the piece above exposes the food label “fortified” as the villain it is. And how, repeating a point made often by Michael Pollan, real food / whole food does not often require a label.
