HURRAY TO CONSUMER ACTIVISM:
Kraft is removing artificial preservatives from everyone’s favorite grilled cheese ingredient, their popular Singles cheese product.
Kraft said that sorbic acid is being replaced by natamycin, which they say is a "natural mold inhibitor." As a food additive, it has E number E235.
Recently, Subway removed a chemical from its bread that is also found in yoga mats.

By training, I am a American Board Certified Pediatrician. But in my younger years I grew up with natural alternatives. As a mom I have tried to incorporate both for my kids and it has worked wonders. And finally, as I am studying natural & alternative medicines, I realize the beauty and wisdom of living closer to earth. Hence in my practice I integrate both...for acute ailments I follow American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation but for simple and/or chronic conditions I prefer natural alternatives.
In western training we were raised to think that "health is the absence of symptoms and problems". But eastern sensibilities has educated me that "Health is state that allows one to use the full capabilities of their body, mind and intellect. Therefore, healthy living is a balanced state of well being: physically, mentally, socially and spiritually." This implies that healing is not a "one-pill-fits-all", but a personalized experience.
