Change my Life?


After watching this, I have so many feelings.  I suppose everything I feel is good, because it really reminds me why I want my future to be dealing with food and nutrition.  This film made me upset watching the animals, especially the chickens, maybe it upsets other people too, or maybe I am just emotional.  It made me feel good when they were talking to the guy at Polyface farms. I feel frustrated, just because I want it to change, but how?  I think everyone should watch this. I want things to be different in the world regarding food, I guess I just want to make a difference, just like anyone else. The film does show you ways you can help…and near the end when the guy says people have to DEMAND better food..and that THEN things will start changing. I believe in this.

I know it is more expensive to eat better, but at this point in the past year, mainly in the past two months everything I have been exposed to, especially with Laurie has changed my outlook on food for the better.  Laurie also made a point a while ago, you may pay for your food to be organic and to know where it came from initially in the store, however, think of how much people pay now in medical bills because they are sick from the food they eat(due to choices, bacteria, genetics) 

Seeing people in the hospital now, makes me unsure of where I want to work.  My granddad has diabetes and I feel like if my sister continues to eat bad and keeps unhealthy habits, that she  could very well end up with diabetes as well.  It is so hard for me, with her, though because she is 16 and she does not care, she doesn’t want to hear me talk about food, and she does not think it affects her body, but it is affecting her body now, and she will see this in her future.
