  1. I LOVE this! I refer back to a lot of these, too. I just created my website, and I have written my first blog post about GMOs and how to avoid them. I would greatly appreciate your support in considering adding me to this list of resources. My website is http://www.healthfulfit.com. Please feel free to check it out! Thanks for creating this Resources Page, and many thanks for all that you do! Your blog is my absolute favorite blog. :)

  2. Thanks for the comprehensive list. I am going to share this direct link (and obviously credit you) in an upcoming seminar on eating whole foods for some of my clients. Thanks also for the blog recommendations. Some of those are unfamiliar to me.

  3. Living with a long list of allergies going out to eatsmd travel is impossible now. I used to think that Panera Bread was a healthy option. Now that I have looked at their ingredients I know that this is not true. It amazes me how places can say they are ‘fresh’ & ‘healthy’ when they are clearly not.

  4. Has anyone heard anything about “Ultragrain”? Its made by ConAgra Mills and sounds too good to be true. They claim its Non GMO…………………
