INTRODUCTION
In
the past few decades, we have been told by the nutritionists to eat more

allergies,
depression, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, birth defects, chronic fatigue, obesity and

Interestingly enough, the same companies that produce toxic chemicals that poison
us
also produce prescription drugs and an astounding variety of over-the-counter |
