Nutrition and Crime

I am finishing a small book entitled "Diet, Crime and Delinquency" written by Alexander Schauss, PhD. Quoting the summary on the back jacket: "Using case histories, graphs and illustrations, Criminologist Schauss clearly and concisely documents how food allergies can foster violence...how nutrition and vitamin therapy help alcoholism and drug addiction...how lead poisoning can lead to behavior disorders...how junk foods and environmental pollutants favor the development of crime."

This book is only 108 pages and it has great references. Dr. Schauss wrote this book 40+ years ago and it reads as if he wrote it today with the only difference being the numbers of people affected have increased as have the food colorings and additives that he shows have such a negative effect on us all.

Enjoy the read.

Real Honey

I received this article from a friend and I wanted to share it with you. It talks about the processing of honey and how it is fast becoming a non-food when bought from most supermarkets. So even when you think you are doing good for yourself and your family the food processors are harming us.

There is still hope. This article lists stores that still carry real honey that does pass the honey as food test and most importantly as safe food.
Enjoy the article and please shop accordingly.
