Has this changed since you started your journey with your favorite brand? Their supplements are balanced along nature’s natural pattern and the probiotics are double-encapsulated to get through the stomach acid. So wouldn’t they be different than commercial supplements?
Hi Kambria,
I’m don’t use a lot of your favorite brand‘s supplements, but that’s only because I have others that I love already:) I stick mostly with essential oils.
Hi!
I have some questions:
Why not potato starch instead of corn starch? Arrowroot doesn’t grow this up north (I live in Sweden), so I cannot get local arrowroot, but there’s plenty of non-GMO, local, organic potatoes, and you get potato starch the same way as arrowroot starch, and use it the same way.
Also, what’s wrong with the other virgin vegetable oils from organic seeds? It’s the same question. Coconuts and olives don’t grow this high up, but we have plenty of rapeseed, and organic, virgin rapeseed oil is available in ordinary stores.
Potato starch would be fine, but I wouldn’t recommend rapeseed oil. Rapeseed is an unstable fat and high in polyunsaturated Omega 6 fatty acids, which our bodies don’t do well with in high amounts.
Table salt has an essential form of iodine, which is important for thyroid function and health. Thyroid hormones cannot be manufactured without iodine. And these hormones regulate multiple functions in our bodies. Suggesting that people replace table salt with seas salt completely is setting a dangerous president.
Tabitha, if you eat a properly prepared and varied diet, you should receive enough iodine for your needs. For example, one lone egg contains almost 8% of your daily allowance. 3 ounces of cod contains 66% of your daily requirement. You do not need sub optimal enhanced food like regular table salt to achieve good health. 😀
I agree! But at least now we can use iodized sea salt. I was using Celtic salt for about a year, then switched to iodized sea salt and in about 2 months my very low temperature came up nicely, which might be a sign of improved thyroidfunction. I live in the “goiter belt” Midwest, so it might depend on where you live.
Thank you for sharing your graphic….It is spot-on. I have been reading/using the wisdom in “Nourishing Traditions” by Sally Fallon. So, I have been trying to follow the guidelines in your graphic for a few months, and still learning. The results so far are amazing!!! My husband and I are eating tons more vegetables and loving it! Most of our food comes from local farms. We are ENJOYING eating so much more than ever. The food tastes fantastic and looks so appealing. I am soaking, sprouting, fermenting, brothing, and trying many new techniques. It is challenging, but so rewarding. I’ve had a few unsuccessful projects, but mostly great results. In addition, our health and energy is better and we are staying slim. We are both over 65.
Thank you so much for this graphic! I shared it on my blog post today and through FB. My family and I are working hard to get on the real food band wagon! It’s great to see graphics like this that break it down so easily. 🙂

Love this! What a fantastic infographic. Posting to Pinterest and sharing!
The more changes I make in my diet (and it wasn’t bad by most standards to start with!), the better I feel. I am learning more every day about hidden food ingredients, and making better choices, and I have more energy, am healthier, and feel like I’m giving my kids an even better shot at long term health. Thanks for providing such good information for us!
Love the simplicity of this!
Love it! Posted on my FB page as the Infographic of the Week. 🙂 Keep ’em comin’! http://www.facebook.com/affordablyorganic

These are our recommendations for sweeteners: https://wp.me/p1g4VG-3o
Like the graphic. How about stevia as a alternative to sugar? What’s your opinion on it.
Interesting as well to see an alternative to vitamins. Vitamins have seemed “fishy” to me the last year. How did these “vitamins” get created? Some kind of government-corporation alliance in the US in the 1930’s FDR-fascist era?
