Spring is here and Earth Day is just right around the corner. It's that time of the year to enjoy tasty, seasonal produce. Should you go organic? Joining me today is pediatrician Dr. Alan Greene. He is here today to tell us the ins and outs of organic eating.
Hello,
I have just started the 5 factor diet apprx 2.5 weeks ago and have noticed that with the increased organic and fibre intake, my stomach blows up like a balloon and I have a hard time fitting into my pants sometimes. Is this normal?

I have been told to stay away from caffeine because I have fibrocystic breasts during a 28-day cycle. Should I avoid green or black tea also? Even though these teas have cancer fighting properties?
Also, should I stay away from Soy products? I was thinking of taking a soy based protein drink but I am not sure this would be healthy for me. I am 47 years old and perimenopausal.

Hi Dear, I am a chronic constipator. I am seriously trying to take care of the problem so I have increased my water and fibre intake. I have started having a bowel movement at least once a day. However, the movement is very loose (almost like diarreah)and is just a very small amount and I always feel like there is more. Is this normal?

I've been drinking green tea for a long time because of its anti-oxident quality. Until recently, I added milk as a coolant and for taste and vitamins. Then someone pointed out that milk destroys anti-oxidants. Is this correct?
