5. A well-balanced diet without all the chemical

preservatives, dyes and other industry crap goes a long way for young people's bodies. That ole' saying "you are what you eat" does seem to apply.

Think of it as a car, keep up regular maintenance checks (oil etc), put in good fuel, and the car will last longer... Same with people, put high quality fuel in (i.e. Good nutritious foods), and the body will preform much better.

Good for Memphis in trying this out and showing the results in amazing ways. In fact, the more stories we wharf schools switching to organic, real home-cooked foods, the more we hear about the phenomenal results of the children becoming better academic students.
