Why Organics Are No Longer An Option For Me
Jean Shaw© -
...........................................................
Until relatively recently the only thing I knew about organic products was that they
were expensive. I never bought them or understood their value in terms of nutrition
and safety.
Infact, until relatively recently I never thought much about anything.
I always trusted that the products I bought and the treatments I had were safe.
How wrong I was.
I have an autistic son and am convinced now that the reason he has
this life long disability is because of the toxic preservatives in the vaccines he
had as a healthy young baby. No-
The same
thing happened with my teeth. I found out too late that the second most toxic substance
on the planet (mercury) was in my mouth. I never asked and no-
We live in a chemical
soup. Toxins are everywhere and until recently I had no idea of their significance
on our health. I just assumed if a product was on sale then it must be
safe.
However,
there are over 85,000 synthetic chemicals approved by the Environment Protection
Agency and most have not been tested for long term health effects either individually
or in combination.
Apart from being in our vaccines they are in our food, drink,
household products, furniture, toiletries and cosmetics. It's no wonder our health
is suffering.
As a nation we are better fed than we have ever been and yet when it
comes to vitamins and minerals we are incredibly malnourished. Our over farmed soils
are depleted of natural nutrients and the widespread use of pesticides, insecticides
and fertilisers as well as airborne industrial pollutants makes our crops a hazard
to our health.
Did you know the average apple has about 110 chemicals on it by the
time you eat it and about 1.5 billion lbs of pesticides are sprayed on wheat and
vegetable crops?
Food is exposed to thousands of chemicals during preservation and processing and
even water takes a hammering. In most cities there are about 700 chemicals in the
water. No wonder people turn to alcohol!
Cosmetics too contain all sorts of synthetic
chemicals and you can't always trust the ones that say "natural" and "organic". Some
unscrupulous manufacturers mislead
customers with false labels. I'm always cautious
if I see "derived from......." (some natural substance) because a chemical process
has obviously taken place.It is no longer
"natural" pure and formed by nature.
Similarly,
"organic" should mean grown and cultivated without the use of chemicals, but the
industry definition is "a compound that contains a carbon atom". Since carbon
is
found in anything that has ever lived, certain companies can get away with using
synthetic chemicals and still call their products "organic".
So what are organic
products?
Well, organic farming cares for the environment without relying on synthetic chemicals.
Rather than using pesticides, farmers prevent pests by planting a diverse range of
crops, using a rotation system and no artificial pesticides, herbicides, hormones
or growth promotants that are questionable for maintaining a healthy body.
The organic
farmer believes the food it provides should be as Mother Nature intended and strives
hard to conserve natural ecosystems. Their food is pure.
In organic personal care
products only minimal processing is permitted allowing only natural or traditional
ingredients. There should be NO synthetic chemicals, unnatural dyes,
colourings,
flavourings or other additives.
Apparently there are now over 200 different types
of cancer and most scientists agree that at least 80% are related to toxins and carcinogens
from synthetic and toxic chemicals.
The disease is caused when constant exposure
overwhelms the body's natural immune system and we lose the ability to
purge the
toxins and chemicals. That's what happened to me with the mercury poisoning and now
I've just had a breast cancer scare. Fortunately it was benign but with 1 in 2 of
all men and 1 in 3 or all women developing some form of cancer in their lifetime
many will not be so lucky.
I can’t take any more risks with my health. Can you?
