There is a delicate relationship between soil, plants, and health. When the soil is sick, so are the plants that grow in it and so are the people who eat the plants. Our modern cultivation process has literally replaced the once healthy "circle of life" with a "circle of sickness." We try to eat good foods, avoid unhealthy snacks, and exercise, yet many people still don't feel healthy. The bad news is that you're probably not. Our modern lifestyle has shown people can be overweight and undernourished. The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reports that more than 50 percent of elderly individuals in the United States are undernourished. We are starving ourselves of nutrients while surrounded by food.
The good news is that there is a way to get the nutrients you need and help bring life, vigor, and enthusiasm back to your body.
Over a 10-year period, the potassium level in oats and buckwheat dropped by two-thirds. That means you need to eat three bowls of oatmeal to get the same potassium as one bowl gave you ten years ago.
