Bacon in a bathtub is Anne's November recommending reading⁠
⁠
by Dr Natash Campbell-McBride⁠
⁠
I cannot wait to read this book! Long awaited from Dr. Natasha and she is bringing herself to The Urban Co-op to let us know all about it in November. Counting down!⁠
⁠
Natasha has inspired so many people in the last 20 years. She has a way of taking a lot of information and making sense of it. Our health stories and how our generations have created a havoc of imbalance microbially. She makes it seem easy on how to restore it too. 20 years ago this information was bit crazy. People weren’t ready. I learned that too in my enthusiasm to educate people about her GAPS concept back then. But now it is different. She resonates with the message. She has brought it all back to the land. Where we belong. We cannot wait to meet her again! ⁠

Lemons in the G&T is Anne's Real Food for Living November article⁠
⁠
Funny how it is the little things that make folk sit up and notice. Promoting organic food for the health benefits is a theme we echo. We have been banging on about it for a while now. Plenty of evidence on the harm of glyphosate. How our land and crops are drenched in the stuff and how as a patented antibiotic we are consuming everyday without a thought. How can it be good for us? Old habits die hard and it is not easy to get...⁠

Food fortification. Are we seeing beyond the veneer of these public health measures?
Are we subconsciously seeking the real thing again?
