Diary of a JJ Virgin Diet Follower

Dear Diary,

I love the Virgin Diet because I enjoy the idea of eating very clean foods, meaning organic fruits and vegetables and grass-fed, anti-hormone, free-range meat and products, hence, clean foods.  More  importantly, it has its long-term nutritional benefits as well as an easy-to-adopt dietary lifestyle.

For me, maintaining the diet and staying on the right foods can sometimes be a challenge. For instance, organic foods are not always readily available in most supermarket and grocery stores. Some neighborhood grocery stores are beginning to develop and adopt a health consciousness by stocking there produce section with more organic fruits and veggies.  Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love shopping at my favorites, Traders Joe, Whole Foods and Fresh Markets because there I am certain to find large quantities of fresh organic produce. Awesome! 
Before I became a Virgin Diet follower, I used to ask, really, what's the difference between organic or not organic?

Listen, there is a definite difference between pesticide grown foods and organic foods.

Organically speaking, I know that organic fruit and vegetables are better because they free from pesticides. Pesticides in or on fruits and vegetables can be very bad for me and make me gain weight among other things.

Beside, the organic fruits and vegetables have an incredibly good flavor, texture and are easier to digest. But today, I made an amazing discovery about something that I frequently used in my foods-and that's garlic. Organic garlic. I use lots and lots of garlic in my cooking, and let me tell you there is a distinct difference between the organic garlic and the pesticide grown garlic that previous ate. 

While chopping up the organic garlic today, just preparing it to used my grass-fed lamb, I noticed that the garlic was juicy inside with an oily like residue(that I could feel when rubbing my fingers together), and a delightful garlicky fragrance. The texture was tender, making it easier to chop in fine pieces. 

The amazing thing was how well the organic garlic fused into the lamb as it cooked, I  smell was wonderful.  And the taste, superb.
Organic is the best way to better health, so choose organic.

I choose organic.

That's it diary.
