Deception. Lies. Greed.
Living in a capitalistic society we are surrounded by deception everywhere we go. Our neighbors want to make money off of us so they use sophisticated methods to lie to us.
The lies start when they tell us that dairy products prevent osteoporosis, when the scientific facts show that the countries that consume the most dairy products have the highest rates of osteoporosis.
The simple truth is we allow this to happen. We need to educate ourselves to how corrupt the actual system is and then understand how to use our "boycott" power to support organic farming and a healthier and more sustainable future.
I recommend The Fluoride Deception by Chris Bryson, because it is fascinating and is also very illustrative of how far companies will go. Once we understand how unethical capitalistic greed can get then we have more power over our lives, because we can live more mindfully.
