"Changes in eating habits and farming methods over the last 50 years may be responsible for the rise in mental health problems in the UK, a new report has claimed. The Mental Health Foundation and food campaign group Sustain claim unbalanced, less nutritious diets have led to an increase in cases of depression, schizophrenia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and Alzheimer's disease. "

But will anyone be held responsible? Not a chance.

Saw that on the news today. Some anorexic-looking old biddy from the dietetics association was interviewed and she rejected this claim.

But I believe food we eat affects ALL our body, including mind and mood. Why do you think chocolate is so comforting? Strawberries & oysters are aphrodisiacs? Too much caffiene can cause headaches?

is it any wonder?
Most of the food we buy has been b00gered around with one way or another.

I don't believe there's such a thing as truly organic - let's face it, free range animals still have to drink water & eat grass - which, although not sprayed directly, has been tainted somewhere along the line.
The air we breathe is hardly decent these days is it?

I think the powers that be have moved the goalposts a bit to help with the labelling systems - so, Organic meat means - a better life when compared to the battery farmed and Organic veg means 'we haven't messed with it but the guy in the next field still uses DDT'.
