From Shereen Jegtvig, your Guide to Nutrition
This week I want to talk a bit about the environment, and offer some help with grocery shopping. If you're trying to avoid chemicals in your foods, I've got help with that, too.

Have a great week.

Save the Environment - One Sandwich At a Time
Plant-based foods require less water and energy to produce, compared to animal-based foods, so it's believed by many experts that if humans would eat more vegetarian foods, there would be less damage to our environment.

Green Tips for Your Diet
The cost of food production has decreased over the past few decades, but some experts believe we're paying a high price in possible environmental problems.

Avoiding Chemicals In Your Food
Your food may contain chemical residues and may be made with small amounts of chemical ingredients. These chemicals are safe at the levels you'd ingest in a normal diet, however, many people would like to know how to avoid chemicals in food.

Smart Shopping
These grocery shopping tips will help you save money and time, and you'll still come home with healthy foods. I've also got some tips on shopping online.
