Reply to comment by Twisted_Cabbage in Heavy metal concentrations in rice that meet safety standards can still pose a risk to human health by aboynamedbluetoo

If the soil is contaminated then using organic growing practices won’t be as effective at eliminating contaminants.

Exactly, but people who worship the meaningless term " all natural" and prostrate to the god of "organic" definitely don't spend much mental power with critical thinking. They spend more mental energy feeling vibes and talking to crystals.

I buy mostly organic but am not foolish enough to think it's some sort of panacea or that it automatically means something is healthy.

In all honesty, i have Master's Degree in Natural Resources and a Master's in Nutrition and Integrative Health. I worked for the US Forest Service for five years and the Bureau of Land Management for 2 before changing my career and became a Nutritionist. Before all that, i served in the US Air Force. In grad school for Nutrition i met many woo woo types that display the exact type of thinking i mentioned. Also met many of those types while i worked for the Forest Service and see them all the time in my private Nutrition practice. Please don't be a jerk and assume you know anyone based off one or 2 reddit posts. Trolling is gross.

So now that i have shared, please...tell me your qualifications for calling me a crank and how awesome you are.

Do tell how that has any bearing. You realize you can be more than one thing at the same time right?
