8 GMO Foods To Watch Out For
In China, they have an extra season.
Spring, Summer, Late Summer, Fall, and Winter make up the five seasons of the Chinese calendar; corresponding with the five Chinese elements and a number of their healing philosophies.
According to my knowledgeable friend Lora:
"Each season is connected to a set of organs in the body. Corresponding foods that are fresh in each season are meant to cleanse, detoxify, and heal those organs. When we eat the same diet year-round without paying attention to seasonal foods, we ignore our bodies' needs to support and properly heal organs, which leads to lots of health issues (obesity, heart disease, diabetes, stroke, etc.)."
So. Here's what you should eat right now:
According to Karen Olsen of Utne Magazine:
"Autumn, the season of the large intestine and the lungs, is the time for concentrating on elimination and cold prevention, as well as building up for winter with proteins, grains, vegetables, nuts, and seeds. Winter's emphasis on the kidney and bladder requires attention to reproductive processes and the warming nutrition of fish, cooked foods, and beans."
Now you know. Eat some roughage and fiber-rich foods already! Click here for more information on the other seasons.

We follow diabetes diet issues closely because of the two-way relationship between elevated blood sugar and gum disease. We blog about it extensively at http://dentistryfordiabetics.com/blog.
