The Impact of Soil Health on Community Health.

In this fascinating presentation, author and educator, Graeme Sait, chronicles the decline in human nutrition over the past three generations and the powerful link to the current plague of degenerative diseases. He offers a game plan to reclaim this lost vitality utilising cutting-edge soil science research combined with strategies for home gardeners to use food as medicine.

Learn about the critical importance of enzymes, eating by ORAC, lacto fermented food and the parallels between minerals and microbes in the soil, and nutrition and biology in our bodies.

You will discover our critical need for plant-derived minerals, antioxidants, phytonutrients and vitamins, derived from food, grown without chemical intervention. This workshop provides invaluable tips for building soil fertility, monitoring your progress, chemical-free pest and weed control, replenishing your microbial work force, selecting “defence” fruit and vegetables, composting hints and home food production as a tool to promote community wellness.

This presentation also includes guidelines for children’s health and highlights recent research into the powerful relationship between nutrition and behaviour. Anxiety, depression and violence have all been linked to missing minerals and substandard nutrition.

    Hi.
    To cut a long story short I would love to see a full and compehensive study done on fruit and vegetables grown conventionally and biologically.
    eg, biological, the soil brought up to the optimal levels, the produce examined as soon as posible after picking and the results published on your site. I would think the vitamin and mineral content would suprise most of these so called experts who claim all you need is food bought off the supermarket shelf.
    Regards Dennis

    Hey Dennis,

    You might be interested in research demonstrating the loss of nutrients in food since the adoption of industrial agriculture.

    In her published study called “Historical changes in the mineral content of fruit and vegetables”, Anne Marie-Mayer looked at 20 fruit and vegetables and reported the following losses since 1960 in the UK.
    Calcium -19% magnesium – 35% copper -81% iron – 22% sodium – 43% phosphorus – 6%
    Some Green revolution cereal crops are unable to uptake cobalt contributing to major B12 deficiencies.
    In a US study reported in Paul Bergners book, “The Healing Power Of Minerals”, mineral declines over a 30 yr period included included: Calcium -29.52%, Iron -32%, Magnesium -21.08%
