RE: Doctor Said I Wasn't Getting Enough 'Yellow' In My Diet

in #food7 years ago

A colorful diet can be a good diet. There was a time in our grandparents or great grandparent's day when they would pour the ashes from the wood burning stove on the garden soil. Thus the vegetables could receive the rich minerals from the ashes and you as well. Sadly we do not do that anymore and lack the 90 minerals and vitamins that our bodies require. Thanks for a good article @therealpaul

Yes, I have a little fireplace near the garden for burning wood, used for exactly that. There's a bigger fire pit now where I can get ashes, but you remind me that I haven't done that this year yet.
