Looking for the best nutritional bang for your money? Buy fruits and vegetables, says a team of french and US researchers who analyzed 637 food using a nutrient-to-price ration. Produce topped their list for providing “essential nutrients at a reasonable price.” Among the best-scoring fruits and vegetables in nutrient density for every dollar were oranges, bananas, carrots, cabbage, tomatoes, celery, onions, canned mixed vegetables and fruit juices. Not far behind were lean meats and dairy products. Below-average scores went to meats in general and composite dishes such as pizza and burgers. The worst values in nutrients for the money? Desserts and other sweets. But you don’t need to be an economist to work this out. Think: A banana costs less than 1 USD. A banana Ice Cream? USD 2+

Homeopathy is a treatment-based system using remedies from animal parts, plants and minerals. The strength and dosage of these formulas are very mild. Homeopathy is founded on a philosophy of “like treats like.” If you had a case of poison ivy, for example, the treatment would be to consume poison ivy internally in minute amounts. This modality works with building immune response than actual tissue healing. Homeopathy remedies are based upon the essence of their contituents rather than potency, realizing that electromagnetic energy, not the potency, is the key. Homeopathy is not a deep detoxification and regenrating modality, but gets tremendous results in relieving symptoms.
