Welcome, Jaime! I have read an article that said that we can change our jeans - I mean, 'genes' simply by altering our food intake and exercise - we may be able to affect our future generations - we do not have to accept our 'bad genes' as 'end of story' and we can work to become healthy. Great attitude - gratefulness for 3 wonderful people in your life! you go girl!
I have diabetes and cancer in my family, too - I have been looking into the paleo diet - to cleanse and adapt some of my new lifestyle and adding or changing over to organics- it is costly, but so is poor health... a fresh organic apple tastes so sweet! You are going to meet all sorts of differing opinions on this site - and that is a good thing- you will gain a lot of support as well - Nancy0
