Save the soil, save yourself

My understanding of nutrition all started (fortunately) by wondering what goes on in the huge ecosystem we all call 'dirt', 'mud' or 'soil'.

As a kid and like most I was rolling, flipping and crawling around in the 'dirt' day in and day out, climbing from tree to tree (occasionally falling) and coming home with it in all places you wouldn't expect and probably eating a large percentage of that to (unconsciously).

I guess you could say that the organic farmers are the real nutrition "gurus", as by studying agriculture you truly grasp the complexity of the soil, the activity of all creatures and life that exists within. The more virgin and organic the soil the higher abundance of fertility, correct mineral balance, healthy activity of microorganisms/bacteria/fungi bugs/insects/humus etc... The potential to produce life (food) is enhanced by the connection the soil can have with the sun/moon/water and air (para/diamagnetic energy systems).

So if you consider that the 'earth worms' are just one of the chief unpaid labour workers of the soils, their contribution is what nourishes the plants that we and other animals eat. So by adding/spraying chemical sprays to the soil in doing so you not only kill them and their capacity to keep the soil balanced and healthy, but you've also just taken away the foundational DNA that existed in order to nourish you and the animals around!

Healthy soil can contain up to 500-600 millions microorganisms in one handful and within that you expect various forms of bacteria and fungi to contributing to the soils integrity.

We are bacterial beings, more so than cellular.

In order to keep your internal ecosystem healthy/balanced we must start with the soil. We all need it theres no escaping that fact.

Support your local real food producers and in doing so you'll be supporting those little guys beneath, doing all the hard work to help life feed life.

Food for thought: If there is such an abundance of animal and bacterial

life-force living in the soils, doing what nature intended and working with the elements to create balance and richness in order to feed the seeds and therefore potential plants (food)... would it be wise to consider that the animals (microorganisms) within the soil are being fed to the plants. 

Bringing the attention to plant based communities that if the plants are carnivoreously eating animals and your eating the plants, you also are eating animals.... does that mean theres no such thing as a vegetarian/vegan ? Curious.


Or as Paul Chek stated back in his early seminars "There is no such thing as a vegetarian.. just someone who doesn't understand the soil"
