Use a Shopping Guide to help you find healthy food at markets, stores and mail order.

When I was working at changing my eating habits, I depended on the Shopping Guide put out by the Weston A. Price Foundation. Now that I am a Chapter Leader for the non-profit foundation, I make up a list of food sources for my local area in Nelson, BC Canada. Theses Guides make it so much easier to find healthy food. You don't have to spend all your time researching food ingredients and calling up food providers to be sure they have good food.

I encourage everyone to first try and get most of their food from local farmers who are growing produce in healthy soil without chemicals and artificial fertilizers. You should also seek out farmers that raise their animals on organic pastures. It's best to find the bulk of your food like eggs, dairy, meat, fruit and vegetables this way. I also challenge you to try and grow a little of your own food. The rest of your food can be purchased from grocery stores and on-line.
