Be frugal

Rethink your food budget.

If you want to purchase more expensive organic foods, you may need to increase your food budget.

Buy preserved foods.

In the off season, avoid expensive imported stale produce. Choose less expensive preserved foods.

Join a co-op.

Food co-ops provide food to members at a discount, and many of the products are organic.

Getting started

Skip the supermarket.

Try health food stores, specialty stores, co-ops, gourmet delis, farmers' markets, and community-supported agriculture programs.

Start at the top.

Purchase organic foods at the top of the food chain - dairy, egg and meats.

Buy organic baby food.

Prepared baby foods concentrate the pesticide residues in fruit and vegetables. Go organic for your baby.

Introduction to Exercise

Getting started

Most of us know we need to be physically active to be healthy. It's not new information, but it leaves us with many questions and many opinions. There's plenty of information about physical activity, but sorting through it and figuring out what to do can be challenging. Instead of answering questions, all that information only seems to generate more: "What exactly does being physically active mean? Is this physical activity or 'exercise?' How much do we need versus what can we do to get by? Do we need to do it all at once? Is there an easy way to fit it into our day, because life is pretty hectic already?" So many questions...plus, almost every day, a new exercise product is introduced promising a quick fix—to whip us into shape requiring only the slightest amount of effort on our part. If only that were true, we tell ourselves....
