 * Bottled water that does not have "spring water" written on the label, simply is not.

 * Changing your diet can change the world more than changing your light bulbs or car.

 * Do the research,
eat the weeds.

*
True organic products may be difficult to recognize. Consider this extreme - 100% All Natural, Pure...
GMO.

* Grow your own

Refractometer

Refractometer
Indispensable high quality tool for measuring sugar content (Brix) of fruits to determine maturity. Also used to monitor the Brix in plant tissue (leaves and stems) through the season. High Brix indicates adequate nutrition and is an excellent indicator of fertilization success. Plants with high Brix (reading above 12) sugar content have good "immune systems." Squeeze the sap from fruit or leaves onto the glass plate, then turn towards the sun, and read the Brix� in the viewer. Comes with chart of desirable Brix for common crops. Meter is accurate to within �0.2. Requires appropriate care. Compensates for temperature. Measures 0�-32� Brix.
