Organic produce that is fresh and local reduces your risk of cancer and other diseases related to toxins used in the agricultural industry.

"My first contact with Dr. Kerry Keiser was at the restaurant where I waited tables. She commented on my limp and asked if she could help in any way. (I didn't even know she was a doctor.)
