Link To Some Natural Cure Info For High BP . . .

Not sure if wal-mart does it else ware, but my local walmart here gets fresh fruits and veggies from California farms.. as does our Safeway.. Depending on how fresh your wanting, (Local, State, country), there are options for getting fresh fruits and veggies from them.. Also, if you can bobtail in to a town (not alot of areas allow it) and find a local market that deals with the farmers market or local distributors, you can get fresh ingredients that way.. Im not picky when it comes to the area the fruit/veggie comes from. So long as it's not beat up or going bad.

That's part of my concern, to be honest. In the drive to be cheapest to market, too many farms go with monoculture, seriously depleting the soil of the necessary nutrients found in balanced farming (crop rotation). Throw in pesticides, herbicides and genetic modification, and I'd personally have trouble deciding between that sort of fresh produce and a can of Chef Boyardee in terms of which is less toxic, or more nutritious.

Now, granted, that's me for which I'm speaking, and only me. I know that a lot of people don't have any problems with one or more of those farming techniques. And I'm not here to bicker about them, either. I just want to (someday) provide what I consider to be a significantly healthier alternative in fresh produce at a price point that is competitive with factory farms.

Do you do your interview first or the physical at prime on the first day.

Do you want quality or do you want cheap? Because that's going to be the two alternatives. If corporations could produce significantly healthier alternatives at their current price points they would. Without pesticides, herbicides and genetic modification you could never produce the volume of food they're producing reliably. Every year you'd have something different wipe out major amounts of crops - bugs, fungi, drought, etc.

I raise some animals and have a big garden and I do everything 100% naturally except for the vitamins and minerals I feed the animals and the antibiotics I give the babies the first few weeks to help them fend off illness. Humans can sterilize their environment a lot easier for ourselves than we can for cows, chickens, and turkeys. So a few antibiotics prevents a lot of illness and suffering, and then leaves their system quickly anyhow.

So I'm all for 100% natural, sustainable farming and ranching. But the idea that you're going to produce high quality, healthy fruits & veggies using sustainable farming methods and compete with the corporate farms is a pipe dream. Corporations are always willing to take shortcuts to save a few bucks.

I agree with you, I still have much to learn. I'm trying to say that I'm coming from a different perspective than they are. Their entire focus is the bottom line and making their shareholders happy. If I have to fund this out of my own pocket, I'm willing to think about it. My goal here is not making money. My goal is getting nutrients out there in a very, very depleted world, and the best way of doing so, to my understanding, is to make it price-competitive with the crap that's out there.

Like I said, this isn't happening anytime soon. But it is a (pipe?) dream of mine for the future.
