I try to only buy organically grown vegetables, dairy products and as many other foods as a I can. No chemicals, hormones or pesticides are used in this type of farming, as opposed to conventional farming methods. I believe the reason that kids are going through puberty at younger and younger ages is due to the hormones added into the milk and meat we eat, to promote faster growth and production.

What sort of dangerous diseases? I don't know or any diseases that are spread from eating vegetables, just a lot that are in meat. I was also under the impression that cooking vegetables made no difference to things like that, and in fact it is healthier to eat them raw.
