Talking Clean!
Connie had the great idea to make this a sticky- basically a little housekeeping! We, the members of this group, are all here because we want to make our lives as healthy as we can.

Coconut oil, and Dr. Bronners

10 Banned Foods
I found this list of 10 foods that are OK in the US, but banned in Europe, Australia, China, Japan, Russia, etc. I knew farm raised salmon was bad, but I didn't realize Russia banned all meat imports from the US.
