I've had a fantastic week touring Australia and want to thank everyone who came along to share the evening with me in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth. I can't wait to be back in November for my BootCamp weekends.
Until next week, have fun.

Organic Produce
When it comes to organic vs non-organic produce, don't make it complex!
Even if it were true that conventional produce had a consistently lower nutrient level (it typically doesn't) an organic diet is not necessary for good nutrition. You'll usually pay twice as much for organic produce which doesn't equal twice the benefit.
I believe that the best thing you can do is either grow your own food or buy from local growers (organic if possible) within a 100 mile (160km) radius from where you live. That way you'll be getting the freshest, most nutrient dense, raw, in season foods on the planet. Not something that is grown and picked before it was ripe, possible put into cold storage and then shipped a thousand miles to get to you.
Until next week, enjoy!
