[[link removed]] Biosolids: Are You Unknowingly Fertilizing Your Plants With PFAS and Other Toxic Substances?

Human excrement is flushed, and sent to wastewater treatment plants where it undergoes a cleansing and detoxification process. It’s sold as “biosolids,” and used for agricultural and home garden fertilizers. The issue is that it’s loaded with PFAS, those “forever chemicals,” as well as a slew of other toxic substances. Learn what steps you can take to avoid dangerous health impacts.

[[link removed]] A Spoonful of Sweetness: A Beginner’s Reference to Including Honey in Your Diet

Honey is packed with nutrients; it may be considered a “super food.” Yet this is contingent on the type and quality of your product. If the honey is processed—put through refining with high heat; pollen sacrificed—you’re likely just consuming an added sugar sweetener with little health benefit. Raw is best, and if you can source locally, and ask your beekeeper pertinent questions, you just might find a true “organic” variety.

During the first half of December 2024, AVFCA brought awareness to specific observance days by sharing our original stories that matched these themes:



Crohn’s and Colitis Awareness Week : “Soybean Oil: Inflammatory, Genetically-Modified, and Linked to Chronic Illness"

With hydrogenation, phytoestrogens, high linoleic acid (LA), toxicity from aflatoxin, and genetic modification … why play around with soybean oil? You can certainly get your omega-6 fatty acids elsewhere, along with vitamin E. There are much safer fats to choose from, and plenty with beneficial attributes. [link removed] [[link removed]]



World Soil Day : “Artificial vs. Natural Turf: Organically-Managed Grass Is the Healthier Option”

Who would have known there’d be choices to make when it comes to the grass you sit on. Not to mention, the grass your kids tumble around in at the local park and school playground. It’s yet another area where your awareness is called upon. Follow the research to learn, and make informed decisions about artificial turf, conventionally-treated grass, and soil-rich, organically-managed grass. [link removed] [[link removed]]



Our team also reads hundreds of articles each week, and those of interest are shared on our social media platforms. However, once or twice a week, our team reads an article that is profound or shares a perspective that is new or from an expert that AVFCA feels should be highlighted. These articles are shared on our Substack.
