Nervousness about produce is messing up our nutrition. Howre yall handling it?
The current ongoing issues with recalls and lack of food safety in the U.S has me and my bf nervous about fresh greens atm and I was wondering how others are navigating it for nutrition (or if this is something we shouldnt concern ourselves with too much). We cant afford to risk getting poisoning but are noticing some steep decreases in energy since pulling back on produce.
Are freezer veggies more safe? Are supplemental one-a-day vitamins good enough to make up for it if we have veggies like once or twice a week? Are you googling brands while shopping? How are yall navigating it?
We generally eat healthy but the decrease of greens is making a notable difference. We want to have good nutrition but neither of us want to be a statistic for all the Cyclospora, Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria, etc. going around.
If you think we're over worrying/are falling for internet fear mongering, that'd also be good to know. Thank you.
