Collateral damage from man-made toxins in our environment

I posted a blog in the past about how atrazine was not helping bull (male) fertility. A friend just passed along a video with a newer and expanded explanation of this problem in humans, and by extension, our male (and female) livestock.

When Pottenger’s cats was written the biggest factor in the cats thriving versus failing was whether their diet was cooked or raw. Today, not only do we have processed and ultra processed food from nutrient deficient soils, but we have the “neighbor’s” toxins to worry about. A lot of this is covered in the video but more deeply and generally covered in the book POTTENGER’S PROPHECY.

Sorry this goes all over the species world. However, all of these ones mentioned are mammals and as Will Rogers might think…they function somewhat the same to a lack of minerals and the presence of too many toxins.

Robyn O’Brien and rebuilding our food system

Robyn O Brien is the modern day “Erin Brockovich” of FOOD. She wrote a book in May of 2010 entitled the UNhealthy truth. She is able to communicate the problems with big food, chemical food, franken-food from both her investment research background and from the emotional motherhood side like no other speaker I have heard. You can listen to her Ted talk here.

The full meal deal is in this talk … as a part of a larger Marianne Williamson event.

I have been following healthy food for almost 20 years now. Her story and the way she gets it across is one of the most powerful I have heard. I feel like I am late to the game to JUST NOW find her book and presentations.

I urge you to listen to her story and explanation before you go out to work today. It will change your focus on what is important to your family, your customers and your fellow Americans!!!

Cows topping off "Salad Bar" (Joel Salatin term) with vinergar and ... Sea Salt???

I am trying something new these days. About a month Rock Thompson of Buffalo SD told me of an experiment he was running on his ranch in the interest of trying to get his cows to consume 4-5 ounces of SEA SALT per head per day. A mix of 50# of sea salt with 5-6 gallons of ACV.

This solves three problems all at once.

1) A mammal in an alkaline body PH is lee likely to get disease than that same animal with an acid body PH reading. Both Sea Salt and ACV are Alkaline forming in the body. A natural disease resistance.

2) According to Carey Reams, when we are in an acid state it is more difficult to get the minerals out of what we are eating and even harder to store them in our body. SEA Salt is all about the minerals.

3) The ACV (especially that which originates at Golden Valley Vinegar in Fruitland Idaho) helps animals digest standing dry forage (summer or winter) and stored dry hay when winter feeding.

Below is a short video of that mix when first introduced to a set of cows in Nebraska. More to be posted here in the near future on this experiment. Looks like a big winner so far.
