Coming soon in … <em>alive</em>: April 2017

In April, we’re shining a light on everything organic.

There are so many ways to embrace organic living. In our April 2017 issue of alive, we introduce you to some organic farmers who’ve committed their lives and their livelihood to raising safe, ethical, and wholesome food. And we share insights about, among other things, why it’s worth it to grow, buy, eat—and even drink—organic.

But the insights carry far beyond food and your favourite beverages. There are plenty more ways to contemplate your organic lifestyle, including personal care products and products for your organic home.

And to help you navigate the tricky world of labels, we sort through the confusion with an update and user guide. We update you, too, on the state of GMOs in Canada from the experts at the Canadian Biotechnology Action Network.

You can also read about natural health supports for cancer patients, as well as immune boosting strategies to help you stay healthy.

In the alive kitchen, we’ve developed some delicious and healthy organic recipes and conveniently teamed them up with perfect wine pairings. We also skipped the stovetop with some raw food recipes and got green with a menu of tasty ideas to help you celebrate Earth Day on April 22nd.
