Maybe I'm the only one who seems to be confused about this....why aren't more health "credits" required by schools for graduation?  We don't have the requirement guidelines that schools promote because we homeschool....so, we're going to require "four full credits" of health related studies for "graduation."  It just makes sense.  Why try to learn it somewhere between 30 and 60 to avoid a trainwreck when you can have a solid foundation in healthy living and free up all that time and energy for other concerns?

Health Curricula seem to be either simplistic, apologetic, or non-existant.....maybe I'm wrong.  If anyone else actually reads this entry and has suggestions for down to earth, "real foods" type of resources for health studies, send me a private e-mail.  I'd sure love to hear suggestions.

My favorite resources that will help us in this pursuit are Real Foods by Nina Planck, Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon, and the Weston A. Price Foundation website.
