In the meantime who eats, drinks organic?
This topic is interesting. At least I think.
I prefer sativa to stevia any day... not insulin response at all.

Can't stand gin. One bad experience and the hint of a Christmas tree smell and I will never touch it again.
So who buys organic?
Too expensive. I buy whatever I can afford, tastes good, or will get me fugged up. I am very fortunate to have never had a cavity (I get a teeth cleaning every 10 years or so), shave once a week (my face too), get the mane trimmed every 3 or months, have the same athletic/lean physique I had at 20, eat whatever I want, drink whatever I want, ___ ___ever I want... I pay for it with the skin of a ginger kid and poor outlook on life tho. See and you thought I was some God-like human hater or... Wait, this isn't facebook! OH CRAP!
After maybe a couple more reply I will show or tell what I know or my opinions.
I look for organic when I can but it's no dealbreaker for me. I grew up on the same processed crap as everyone else, and all I have to show for it is a lack of sickness and general good health. I do like that organic is supposedly less processed, but I am also aware that a lot of that is bunk as well. You can only do some much control the purity of your food at any point from it's inception to your consumption. I view organics as a definite step in the right direction, but they are hard to wrap your head around. I look at organic produce that's not as big, not as, ripe, not as perfect as "normal" produce, and the organics are 2-3 times the price, sometimes more. Having said that, I am a convert to organic eggs. They fall into the same expensive category, but I can say first hand there is a difference. There are also huge differences between organic brands. Some are almost the same as the normal stuff while some are very high quality and worth it in my book. In my opinion, organics aren't going to save you, but if you're going to make the effort to eat healthy in the first place, why not give yourself every advantage possible. I eat probably 25% organic. At the end of the day it's about a reasonable balance. You are never going to stick to something you can't get along with, I have been eating quasi-healthy for most of my adult life. I try to slip in enough wholesome foods so I don't feel bad about indulging in junk foods and beer on occasion.
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on me.
So within the time of this thread....I started my neighbor on Zija. In 5 weeks he has lost 27lbs.
Organic Foods:
I will put them into two categories:
Don't waste your money
and
If you can afford it
Don't waste your money:
Produce/Fruits/Vegetables
If you can afford it:
Eggs
Milk
Beef
Its that easy. No studies so an overwhelming reason to eat organic produce. However, with eggs, you have to try them to believe it. I like them, but honestly I don't always fork the 3x for them. Milk tastes better organic, but I am a milk drinker and $4 a half gallon is about $8 weekly for me! However it is making its way into my fridge way more often than in the past. The extra chemicals in non-organic is something to think about. Beef - its just better for you all around.
Nooooo... I thought this thread had finally died!![]()

As long as I keep getting emailed. I will keep updating this.
Its helping people in multiple ways. You will see soon enough.
I have and will.
This thread is helpful.
Who would not want to be more healthy?
So much negativity when there is much more controversial topics and threads started.
Ya know, maybe there is something to what you are saying about this stuff... maybe not... but I hope you don't mind me asking... How's business? I have a friend who is, sadly, always down for MLM.
