What's with ALL these allergies?????


A MUST READ
for those who want to know what's in our food

It took me several months to read this book. Not because it was too hard or even a "hard read" ;) but because of the overwhelming information that Robyn discovered. I needed time to "hear" and wrap my brain around what I was reading.  I was on the verge of "shutting down" at several points in my reading journey because I felt like I couldn't feed my family anymore. I NEEDED a break from time to time. 
My entire family suffers from some form of allergies, some to the degree of avoiding certain foods all together or leaving windows closed so fingers are NOT tempted to scratch out eyeballs :/  
I never believed that food given to us by God could be making us sick and I have ALWAYS felt our allergies stemmed from the environment AKA pollutants or chemicals that are put into our food. Believe it or not I have a child who can taste whether an apple is conventionally or organically grown. This child has been fed a high percentage of whole foods, meaning very little boxed/packaged foods because of allergies.
This truly is a MUST read for all who want to know (and even those who don't want to know) what is happening to our food.
