If you are wondering at all about the virtue of organic vs conventional food, you might want to check out some excellent documentaries available from Netflix and others. These include "Food, Inc," (now showing in theaters), "The Future of Food", "King Corn" and "Fast Food Nation." There's also a great website www.WhatsOnMyFood.org where you can look up your favorite foods and see what else you're getting when you buy conventional. Unfortunately, the cheap supermarket food we've grown up with comes at a price - the high cost of health care.

Check out WhatsOnMyFood.org to look up what you're eating and see what pesticides you're getting with it (unless of course you're eating only organic).

This is good information but Dr. Greene omits balancing calcium with magnesium which is important for everyone including children. For expert information see www.nutritionalmagnesium.org.
