Men's Health Article on "15Ways to Change the World"

Men's Health had an article in April that gave way to an interesting quote. The quote led me to look up the orginal article "15 Ways to Change the World" which could be found on www.MensHealth.com/organicbook. That was a gold mine! I found some pretty interesting stuff from a book titled: "Organic Manifesto" by Maria Rodale. 2 of my favorites and some of the more interesting and maybe surprising pieces of information are:

"Nearly 100 different pesticides are thought to disrupt your body's hormonal balance, which could reduce fertility...And even trace amounts in food may be enough to damage sperm."


And

"Allergies, asthma, autism, ADHD, diabetes, and childhood leukemia have all been linked to exposure to chemicals. And that includes the fertilizers and pesticides you use on your lawn."

These both make me want to read and not read the book. If you have read it let me know what you think about the book, the article or what I have just posted.
