Biodynamic Food

[Camillus]

Apparently organic food just isn't good enough.

For our own health and the health of the planet we need to switch to biodynamic food. Food grown in a way that accounts for the natural rythms of the Earth, sun, moon and stars.

Now I know that you're thinking this is rubbish the movie stars eat it so it must be really good. Right :D?

I'm amazed at the lengths people will go to to part with their money.

the animals potter around the balanced micro-ecosystem enjoying hormone-free homeopathic lifestyles...

homeopathic lifestyles? So the animals drink water? I drink water. I guess I have a homeopathic lifestyle.

I'm willing to bet the writer of this article doesn't even know what homeopathy is. It's just a buzz word and people love to use it.

It's quantum, man. (http://www.vetlab.co.uk/voodoo/thoresen.html) (This is an article about how acupuncture, homoeopathy and biodynamic agriculture all work by some sort of quantum invocation of the "intent" of the practitioner.)

I met some biodynamic distributors at a food event in Boston (my wife was a sales rep for a wine distributor and I was helping her out.) Anyway, there was a pair of guys from a biodynamic vineyard and were selling their wine as "way beyond organic." They harvested the grapes according to astrology. For anyone out there interested in the science of growing wine, called vitriculture, you harvest the grapes according to taste and pH. I made the predicition their wines would be mediocre, and I was right. This reminds me of certain dietary beliefs, for example, you have people who eat everything, milk+egg vegetarians, organic eaters, vegans, non-honey, organic, raw food new age vegans, macrobiotic organic raw food vegans. Its like a bottomless pit of rediculous dogma to keep believers hooked.

So...I'm assuming that during dry spells, they don't give these valuable biodynamic crops any water? That would interfere with the plants' exposure to natural hydrological cycles, after all.

I think I'll start a "Super-Organic Food" regimen in which you only eat organically-processed animal organs while listening to organ music. It should draw plenty of suckers.

And we are all aware of course, to purge your aura before eating, so you don't re-absorb any negative energies you may give off. I may have just started a movement....looking for book deal....

This reminds me of Jay Kordich, the Juiceman!! Ever see him? He says juicing raw fruits & vege's is supeior to canned foods because "live vegetables contain live enzymes". And, "live enzymes can replace your own enzymes to do more important work like fighting cavities and cancer"***

By the way, I own a Juiceman Jucier.........hey, I like juice.:)

Double secret organic! :p

Where did we go wrong? The discovery of fire, that's when. Anything since then has ruined the planet. Damn that Prometheus! :p

And that gal Pandora, she really screwed us up. :p

But she left us hope, the greatest misfortune of all! :D

Maybe they use homeopathic water--water that is so diluted there's no water there.

I already use biodynamic food. What I eat has an (ultimately) biological origin, I'm biological, and the food moves (dynamically) through my gut, turning into the same stuff these quacks sell.
