Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the CounciousEating.ca online whole food store and other health food stores or natural food departments in supermarkets?
A: ConsciousEating.ca” is different from other health food stores as a result of the owners’ determination to exclusively choose the ultimate foods on the market. We encourage you to read “Our quality standards” under “Our Philosophy”.
Q: Why do you say that food can be our medicine?
A: Because Mother Nature is generous. True natural organic or wild food is said to have medicinal effects on the body.
For instance, it is commonly known that some healthy foods are goitrogens – such as broccoli, cabbage, mustard, cauliflower, kale, turnip, soy, pine nuts, peanuts, millet… – which suppress thyroid function, especially when these foods are eaten raw. On the other hand, in cases of hyperthyroidism, goitrogenic foods might be a good option to inhibit thyroid production. It is important to really know our health condition by visiting our doctor and follow the appropriate diet to plentifully enjoy our life.
Q: Who are you guys and why do you do this?
A: ConsciousEating.ca is managed by a visionary family with the aim to provide toxin-free, GMO-free, organic or wild, top-quality food to Canadians. We operate this online business because we strongly believe in organic nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. We are thus supporting organic family farms and businesses, believing that there is an urgent need to stop the overuse of pesticides and fungicides found in food. These poisons have a very negative impact on our body and on our wonderful planet. We invite you to read “Our Philosophy”.
