Organic Black Sesame Seeds – Something You’ll Always See in My Kitchen

Written by Max Goldberg on January 17, 2012. Follow Max on Twitter: @livingmaxwell.

When it comes to eating, I like clean and light food.

My body seems to reject heavy sauces, fried foods, and sautées, even if they are 100% organic.

I like simplicity in a meal and as a result, I tend to cook a decent amount for myself. Why?

Not only is cooking at home the most inexpensive way to eat organic but I can have exactly what I want.

Whenever I make quinoa, millet or a big salad, one of my favorite things to put on these dishes are black sesame seeds.

A rarity at organic restaurants, black sesame seeds can always be found in my kitchen for a few different reasons.

First, they are very rich in minerals such as magnesium, calcium, copper, and zinc. Getting these minerals into my diet is extremely important. Read More »

Organic Milk – The Most Important Product a Family Can Buy

Written by Max Goldberg on January 16, 2012. Follow Max on Twitter: @livingmaxwell.

For people who are new to organic or have very limited financial means to buy organic, the one thing that I always say is the following:

The absolute number one priority in your household should be organic milk for your kids.

Even if a family thinks that organic food is out of their budget, organic milk cannot be compromised under any condition.

Organic milk is about the health of the kids, and that comes before everything else.

If you’ve been following me on Facebook or Twitter lately, you’ll know that I have been posting pictures of the fresh, organic juice that I make each morning.

One ingredient that I am starting to use more and more is organic burdock root.

Burdock is not exactly a household name but the health benefits are fantastic. And for what I am trying to achieve – to keep my liver clean and healthy – burdock is exactly what I need. Read More »

Expert: U.S. Soil Has Much Higher Levels of Radiation from Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Disaster Than Previously Thought

Written by Max Goldberg on November 4, 2011. Follow Max on Twitter: @livingmaxwell.

In the end, it is all about soil.

Rich, nutrient-dense soil plays a huge role in the level of nutrition in food. Healthy soil = healthy food. (This assumes organic seeds, not genetically-modified seeds, of course.)

There was some very grim news that I heard about recently, and it has to do with the quality of our soil, as a result of the nuclear accident at Fukushima.

After the earthquake in Japan, scientists at UC-Berkeley (UCB) measured the radiation levels of soil in various parts of California. Read More »

RARE VIDEO: Obama Promised to Label GMOs While on Campaign Trail – Then Abandons Promise Once in Office

Written by Max Goldberg on October 13, 2011. Follow Max on Twitter: @livingmaxwell.

If you’ve been following my blog over the past few months, you know that the Right2Know March is taking place right now.

I was there for the kick-off, which started on October 1st in NYC and ends this Sunday in Washington, and I’ll be there for the finale as well.

As Americans, we have the right to know what is in our food. Read More »
