Your Opinion Matters to Your Health

mainarticle

Knowledge. Is it what we want or what others want for us?!

As we go through life, people are always trying to give us "their spin" on what is happening or did happen. Often we form our opinions on the beliefs of one person. It is then your job to determine if they have your best interest in mind or are they out for themselves.

How often do we take the time to research a topic for ourselves and gain knowledge? Part of the problem is that we think our opinion does not matter or will not make a difference and of course, it does.


Dunn Wellness Center would like to provide you with information to make knowledgeable decisions about your health through health talks, information in our newsletters, links on our facebook and twitter pages and through one-on-one care in our office.

In February, our Tuesday health talk explored whether it is worth it to be sweet and discovered that there are several foods that we would never have imagined that were made with sugar. 

This March is National Nutrition Month. Join us to discover ways to save on your healthcare costs. This talk will also focus on the importance of reading food labels and why it is important to know who makes the food that we eat. 

In addition, we are also going to be showing the movie Food Inc. at the office on the Friday (March 12th) following the talk. Dunn Wellness is asking patients to come enjoy this free viewing and donate food items to BEAM. More information to follow. 

We hope you will continue your health journey and make knowledgeable and positive decisions to make a difference in your life and in the lives of others.

Stop Genetically Engineered Alfalfa and Protect Organic Food!
 
The USDA recently released a draft of its Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on Genetically Engineered "Roundup Ready" Alfalfa. If we don't speak up, it's clear they intend to approve its commercial use. We can't let this happen.

You may not think about alfalfa much when you're drinking organic milk, but organic alfalfa is important to organic farming as a nourishing animal feed that's also a nitrogen-fixing soil enhancer. Once GE alfalfa is introduced, its contamination of non-GE plants - including organic - is all but inevitable. And because alfalfa is fed to dairy cows and other livestock, contamination puts organic dairy and meat at risk, too!


In their EIS, the USDA states "There is no evidence that consumers care about GE contamination of organic alfalfa." We know that you do care.
Now is your chance to be heard. Tell the USDA to protect organic food and farmers from GE contamination, and NOT TO APPROVE Monsanto's GE Alfalfa.

Sign this petition by February 16th, 2010 and let your opinion be known!
