This is an internesting article about the move from conventional farming to organic farming headed by the leaders of Prince Edward Island in Canada. I like the reference to the shiny new John Deere and the costs associated with conventional farming.

Gary Claudeheid, a long-time organic farmer and Green Party candidate, said people who argue that organic growing is not economically feasible fail to see the failing economics of conventional operations.

“Between 1950 and 1980, the Island lost 80 per cent of its farmers,” he said. “Between 1986 and 2001, it lost another 1,000. In the last five years, we’ve lost another 147. They are never taken into account.

“They like to point to the 750 farms on Prince Edward Island that are grossing over $100,000. But how much of that is left when they have to pay for a shiny, new, green John Deere machines, all the chemical fertilizer, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, sprout inhibitors and all the other chemicals they are using?”

Labchuk said her party would restore some of the economic sense to organic farming by removing the subsidies that support chemical-based farming and offering money and training to help growers’ transition to organic methods.

Just heard about this company called Natucor in South Africa. They manufacture four 100% natural supplements; Glutamag™, Comboslim™, Neuromax™ and Lycocaps™.

Glutamag™ is for improving neurological functions, treating peptic ulcers, assisting in weight loss and acting as an anti-ageing agent.

Comboslim™ is a natural slimming product while keeping a healthy and fit body. Comboslim™ increases the metabolism, burns fat and regulates appetite.

Neuromax™ is a product that provides optimal functionality of the brain through a natural approach by increasing the oxygen supply to the brain and protecting the myeline sheath that surrounds the neurons.

Lycocaps™ provides a boost to the human immune system and removes free radicals from the body. These free radicals damage cells in the human body and could cause cancer. Lycocaps™ protects the human body against cancer and assists in the prevention of birth defects like Spina Bifida, cleft palate and neural tube defects.

Please keep in mind that any slimming aids are most effective when used in conjunction with a healthy diet and moderate exercise.
