The Dr speaking at the workshop said that one of the worse ways that Americans are filling their bodies with chemicals is by injesting plastics. He said that anytime you mircrowave plastic wrap or bags, the plastic leaches into your food and you eat it. The more these toxins build up in our bodies, we get start getting sick. Anything from allergies, rashes, and asthma, to even worse, cancers. I had a bunch of those bags in my cupboard and came straight home and tossed them. Okay, stepping off of the box now!

YUCK! I used to be very careful about this- I had heard the warnings about saranwrap etc. I thought these new steam bags were suppossed to be thick enough to not release their toxins into the food???
Katie, is there anyway to help our bodies rid itself of the toxins we put in?
Oh, and about the veggie burgers-my favorite is the original gardenburger. I get a huge box of them from Costco and have them almost once a week for a protein. They are SOO good to me, but I don't really think of them as tasting like a real-deal hamburger. I don't really crave those anymore actually! I'd like to try the Amy's brand-sounds good!
