Pork

SanteMulberry

As long as you eat pork that is raised in healthy conditions (check with a local farm) and given healthy food to eat, it is probably safe to consume. Pork is higher in zinc than other meats and we don't usually get enough zinc in our diets as N. American soils are zinc-poor. On the other hand, you might want to stay away from fatty pork products as high pork consumption is linked to liver disease. There is contained in pork fat a fat that is, for humans, non-digestible. Be aware that pigs will eat virtually ANYTHING. During the Great Depression, many farmers fed cow manure to their pigs. Apparently the pigs really liked it. Ugh! :sick:
