Eat Local



Grow your own vegetables. I make mine organic, without pesticides. Less is best. Certain herbs, such as rosemary, mint, and cilantro deter insects. Flowers like marigolds are also good insect deterrents. There are healthy versions of insect deterrents you can administer if you choose to go that route. Rain water is better than  community water--no added chlorine plus other chemical and contaminants. Growing your own is the freshest and most local you'll ever get. Nutrients are kept best when it is picked when ripe and eaten quickly afterwards. Fresh is best.
