Talking about nutrients in food, vegetables in particular. You might be interested in this.
We grow almost all of our own veg, and last year I had a soil test done, just for interest. It came back "shortage of Magnesium" the same day DW came back from her monthly visit to the Homoeopath and guess what, they found a "shortage of Magnesium".
Just goes to show. You think you're doing it right regards chemicals, but find there are still downfalls to being self sufficient.
