New product line that supports and provides flavor to numerous healthy lifestyle choices such as vegan, raw, vegetarian, gluten-free, organic and kosher, as well as diabetic and heart healthy diets, is getting national recognition and rave reviews. These 100% natural, “farm to table” products give a pop of healthy flavor to any meal. http://www.thedeliciousdietitian.com
Mobile, Ala. based business, The Delicious Dietitian, recently debuted their line of The Delicious Dietitian Spice Blends and Wine Vinegars on a national level. These products were developed as a solution to the recognized growing need for healthy lifestyle products that promise and actually deliver good flavor.
The Delicious Dietitian Spice Blends compliment and support healthy living while pleasing all types of palates. Available in six unique styles (Thai, Creole, Southern All-Purpose, Seafood, Italian Mediterranean and Southwest), they deliver a pop of flavor with no salt, no sugar, no potassium and no calories. They fit perfectly into 100% gluten-free, 100% raw, 100% vegan, organic

All of The Delicious Dietitian Wine Vinegars are 100% natural and made from the freshest vine ripe produce, bringing flavor and antioxidants to any dish. Working with local farmers is the key to quality and ensures the “farm to table” experience. The Delicious Dietitian Wine Vinegars are born from the pulp of the fruits and vegetables, and handcrafted for a sweet delicious taste. They can be used to create wonderful marinades, salad dressings, demi-glazes and more. In addition to being a no-salt, no-sugar way to add flavor to meals, The Delicious Dietitian Wine Vinegars are gluten-free, vegan, kosher and raw.

FDA has no guidelines for cosmetics
By Nedra Rhone
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Annette Rubin was pregnant with her first son when a scary thought entered her mind.

But genetically modified corn, soy and other crops have become such common ingredients in processed foods that even one of the nation’s top organic food retailers says it hasn’t been able to avoid stocking some products that contain them.
