It has been amazing to see the improvement in our health as we continue to reject genetically modified (GMO) foods.

I think it has much to do with the fact that eating GMO’s cause the immune system to be sluggish.. The white blood cells are not as active. Everyone should read Seeds of Deception by Jeffrey M. Smith http://www.seedsofdeception.com/Public/Home/index.cfm

It would seem with all the concern over swine flu and other pandemic threats that refraining from GMO’s would be a prudent challenge to take on. To get started get your free Shopping guide at No GMO Challenge

I would like to challenge my readers to refrain GMO”S for the entire summer (if not indefinitely!) and watch their immune systems flourish next fall . I think it is a lot better bet than getting a flu shot!

Below are two of my family’s favorite GMO free Chicken entrees. Keep in mind that I only use fresh ground organic grains to make the flours in my recipes. ENJOY!  Keep food REAL!
