I think that there is a definate link between pesticides and chemicals and cancer. This disease started when processed foods came on the market. Reverting back to the way our ancestors ate is going to prolong our lives.

Gary I notice you have gone very quiet.!
Hopefully Lesley Jeans post has taught you to think before you spout off about poppycock and the size of peoples wallets. For your information the couple I was enquiring on behalf of are an elderly retired couple from Scotland who also have ill health - their wallets are far from bulging!!!

Lesley Jean - I hope you're daughter's health continues to improve... x

Canada, diagnosis is the Key word, they couldn't diagnose lung cancer when I was a boy, they called it galloping consumption, many other diseases went undiagnosed likewise, to put it bluntly, I can't understand why vegetables grown in Horse sh*t and other excrement are healthier to eat, you put chemicals on your hands when you visit hospitals to kill the bugs, so why not on food, it's washed off. You even have to wash your hands after going to the toilet :lol:

Hi Madge

Yep did go all quiet for a while just got back from CVO a few days ago so not a happy bunny... Anyway saw an article fairly recently which did say they were having some trouble with manure because some of the grass the cows or horses were eating was not organic it had been sprayed with whatever. I think it was in the Gardening Which magazine.

One never knows...

Well I can assure you that the Fumeiro do Algarve Smoked Fish they sell in their shop is definitely not sprayed with pesticides or anything else for that matter, just raw fresh fish, natural raw materials for smoking and nowt else.
