July 2003

I have decided that after my children are grown up a bit more I would be interested in perhaps studying to become a nutritionist. I am extrememly interested in how what we consume impacts our health, both positively and negatively. Such subjects as food combining, allergies, and the nutritional/healing benefits of food as well as the detrimental effects of such things as pesticides are of great interest to me. I am not ready for any studying but thought I might start reading up on the subect in my minimal spare time. Does anyone have any suggestions on good books that I could get as well as where to get them? Much thanks, Hungry for Knowledge
