I’m all for super nourishing foods and herbs. Learning under Dr. David Christopher & Dr. Richard Schulze, Herbalists and Naturopaths trained by Dr. John Christopher… John Christopher always taught to “eat & healthy from under your own tree.” Meaning use the indigenously local foods and herbs that are living and growing in the same “soil” and climate that you are.
Just curious your thoughts. I’ve worked with clients in this manner, as closely as possible. 🙏🌱❤️🩹🌿🙏
I agree with you, except that for instance, we live in the Plains, near the Kansas border, where many herbs and trees do not grow here. Our weather gets bouts of hail, some awful winters, and short springs. The fruit in our local store is of poor quality and very expensive. In our stores, you often buy fruit from Mexico or an area where you have no idea of the growing or processing. Much of our fruit today does not have the nutritional value it had when I was growing up. I grew up in Southern CA, where we had access to great quality local fruit. So it depends on the area your client or you live. Will your client eat fruit? How much Vitamin C does the local fruit have, which depends on soil conditions and how it's grown? I would love to live again in CA, where there were organic farmers' markets, and a lot of places to buy locally grown and organic produce. We can't even buy organic fruit in our small town, which is 3 hours from Denver and a Whole Foods market. We pay 6 bucks for cauliflower, for instance, which is small and has black areas forming. We live in an area that produces hogs and cattle, hay and sugar beets. Steak is what is important. Fruit is not considered important. People eat out here a lot, with a lot of obesity. If we lived in the Front Range, Colorado area, where the organic food stores are located, there would be a world of difference in food choices and views on health. I also live in a town where most of the people work in the hospital and believe in COVID shots and standard medicine. Most are really not interested in getting well holistically or eating holistically. They line up here for their flu and COVID shots, wondering why the death rate is so high. In Denver, to rent a room is about $2000 and up. That is why we live so far out. My daughter's house payment is about $4000 a month. The Front Range is holistic, but a fortune to live in.
When I moved back to my Northern NY upbringing, organic was not a thing. In 30 years, the small and organic farmers in the area had exploded. Buying organic produce, that will grow here, is much easier. Fruit is limited to seasonal and we can’t grow peaches or tropical fruit. -17° F last night!

I feel this!
