Harmful Toxins and Processed Foods

But even at your local buffet line, where you think you are eating healthy by putting a variety of vegetables on your plate, you might not know what you’re getting. Truth is, those tomatoes, broccoli, or other vegetables you have on your plate or in your home were grown under a light in a factory instead of outside in a garden free from harmful pesticides and artificial fertilizers.
When you think you are eating healthy by purchasing fresh vegetables such as cauliflower, broccoli, onions, or bell peppers over canned or frozen vegetables, you are still purchasing vegetables grown in a laboratory, not grown nature’s way. By eating foods that are not grown nature’s way, you are putting harmful chemicals into your body and the body of your children.

Pesticides that appear to be harmless for certain vegetables and meats have been proven harmful to our bodies and cause life-lasting damage. Ensure you are not causing permanent damage to your body by becomes aware of where your meats and vegetables come from.
