What about th0se apples?
The last big event we had in the Community Center was the second week of October, and there were food trays leftover from a buffet one night. So I took one of the fruit trays that was so pretty and decided to see how long it took for the raw sliced apples and grapes to start deteriorating. Normal apples would start turning brown within a day or two at most. This is what is supposed to happen when the apple is whole and natural. It's supposed to break down and be digested internally completely being used by the body for vitamins, minerals, and various enzymes. Natural good food.
Now here is my picture - look closely at this! This tray was set aside on Oct 12th 2007. Now it is November 9th and look at them! They are now starting to change colors. Think about this.... what is on them to keep them from turning naturally quickly. How is it that this fruit has remained perfect for almost a solid month! There is some sort of preservative on or in the apples and grapes.
Now think with me...... the substance that is on them as a perservative is going into your body. It's still a chemical once you have ingested it. What is it doing inside? And how does it affect the digestion ability, the vitamin and mineral content of your system? Does it change to some other chemical once digestive juices mix with it?
Here is the scarry part - NO ONE KNOWS. No one understands how these preservatives affect the human body long term. Is it worth cutting your own organic fruits and eating them fresh to protect your own body. You bet!
Wonder why we all keep getting diseases, in this the most modern country on earth? We might look like the most prosperous nation on earth but that doens't mean that all of our prosperity has brought us good common sense.
Think about it........ You are worth it. it's just a apple - or is it?
