Our Family Became Members Of Local Food Co-ops
As a family, we then stopped all dairy, wheat, corn, processed food additives, refined sugar, and others. Surprisingly (not surprisingly) our collective skin problems, headaches, coordination, and focus issues at school all cleared up in weeks. We became members of local food co-ops in a neighbor’s basement, and we bought meat from private sellers. We stopped eating any ingredients with chemical names before organic was a thing.
My mother became a La Leche League leader and immersed herself in the culture of community health support without doctors. Years later I would learn that I came from a long line of pharmacists and chiropractors.
