based neoconservative think tank, it was found that organically-grown
foods, most notably fruits and vegetables, are actually poisonous to
humans, especially the sensitive systems of our smallest and weakest
citizens, our children.&amp;nbsp; It turns out that the lack of pesticides
and chemical fertilizers, as well as the hormones and steroids added to
animal feed, creates an imbalance within the body that in turn secretes
poisonous substances.&amp;nbsp; In other words, if you eat organic?&amp;nbsp;
You are slowly killing yourself and your children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The study shows that the chemicals we have been vilifying are actually &lt;i&gt;necessary&lt;/i&gt;
for human survival.&amp;nbsp; Without them, the body slowly shuts down and
organs begin to fail (this process takes on average 70+ years, but it
is a sure and irrevocable process).&amp;nbsp; Me, I am horrified.&amp;nbsp;
Here I've been paying, on average, three times the price of "regular"
pesticide and chemical fertilizer-laden vegetables and fruits for ones
lacking these crucial components for good health.&amp;nbsp; It's enough to
make me want to go get a big bag of Miracle-Gro and a spoon (yummy when
sprinkled on ice cream; kinda crunchy but good).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.babble.com/CS/aggbug.aspx?PostID=13302" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.babble.com/CS/blogs/strollerderby/archive/tags/chemical+fertilizers/default.aspx">chemical fertilizers</category><category domain="http://www.babble.com/CS/blogs/strollerderby/archive/tags/organic+foods/default.aspx">organic foods</category><category domain="http://www.babble.com/CS/blogs/strollerderby/archive/tags/Miracle-Gro/default.aspx">Miracle-Gro</category><category domain="http://www.babble.com/CS/blogs/strollerderby/archive/tags/pesticides/default.aspx">pesticides</category></item></channel></rss>
