Organic Living

I recently watched WAY too much documentaries about where our food comes from. I did lots of research and decided to make a change in my life. I'm switching to 100% organic. I know nothing about organic living. I am completely new at this and wanted to document my change.

I decided to fast meat for awhile since I'm having a hard time finding organic 100% meat locally. I noticed that once I gave up meat I feel much energized. I don't feel tired after my meals like I used to. This is just a temporary change but I feel like it's a good one. I think maybe I won't eat meat as much as I used to. Apparently people weren't meant to eat meat because of the way our digestive system works. I will still eat meat but probably not everyday.

I also noticed that organic food tastes much better than non-organic food. It's no wonder you pay more for it.
