Shop Smart: Organic on a Budget 

These guidelines for eating healthy and cheaply are pretty basic, but sometimes basic is best. Especially on a Monday. So to recap:
1. Buy in season
2. Think organic if the skin is thin (pesticides penetrate thinner skinned fruits and vegetables more easily)
and 3.  It might sound extreme, but to really take care of your body, consider grass fed meats and dairy. The extra cash for the carton of milk now might save the bill for the heart surgery later on.

You only get one body: feed it well.


Happy Monday everyone!

Cheap and Healthy

I'd like to focus on foods, or rather ingredients, that are good, good for you, and good for the wallet. This list from WebMD seemed like a place to start, though I would take egg substitute off the list and spring for farm fresh, just because.
