Here’s a simplistic analysis of the current food system: conventional farming and mono-culture organic farming produces fruits, vegetables, and grains that lack the complex flavour of fruits and vegetables. Not to mention depleting our soil. Consequently, they’re also lacking in their nutrient profile. The food that comes out of this system is anemic and malnourished in turn leaving the people that eat it malnourished.
Rates of obesity and chronic disease are on the rise and we’re becoming more aware of diet related illnesses. Something is wrong with our food system.
