Couple calls organic diet 'God's Diet' in route to weight loss

Organic diets are my favorite: there's a lack of nutritionally-deplete vegetables, natural tastes without the need for chemicals and ready availability. Is this the diet that was intended for the human body? How about calling an organic diet "God's Diet?"

100 years ago, there weren't food factories. Or preservatives. Or additives. Or mass manufacturing. All those combined with the need for profit gave rise to the processed food industry that most of American nibbles on every day.

Jim and Judi Mahaney readily call organic foods "God's Diet." The couple reviews food labels looking for chemical names they cannot pronounce, among other things. Judi says that she shops "for all the things that God made for us to eat, not the man-made things that companies have created for us. It's the food that God created -- the berries, fruits, and nuts, the plants and all the vegetables and herbs, and certain animals and fish."

Regardless of a belief in a higher power, what's your reason for consuming a natural and organic diet?
