What Is Green Food
To start eating greener, healthier food, the first change is to get away from hydrogenated fat, monosodium glutamate, artificial flavorings and colorings. Read your labels, avoid fast food restaurants, buy your food as fresh as possible and prepare it yourself. Look for Certified Organic, Certified Naturally Grown and food that is raised or grown as close to you as possible. Local Harvest is a great place to look for farmers' markets, family farms and other sources of food grown in your area. It may take a bit of work at first, but once you figure out where to get the freshest food near you, the better off you'll be. If you really can't get fresh locally grown food, try for frozen food, especially frozen vegetables with no additives. Vegetables that have been frozen soon after they were harvested will retain more of their nutrition than ones that either sit in storage, or get shipped long distances. Don't totally discount canned foods, some things like tomatoes just don't freeze well. Look on the label and see what else went into that can, and is it really something you want to eat? Canned food is better than nothing, and the canning process, while it kills off some nutrition, it also kills off harmful microorganisms. |

I only wish we had more locally grown foods available. I do substitute with frozen vegetables, but use canned only occasionally. Like you said, with tomatoes, frozen isn't an option!
