Hey Mike / Admin,
One topic I enjoy learning more about is healthy food: Buying local, growing ones own food, avoiding toxic ingredients, news on recalls and contaminant discoveries: With bio-engineered ingredients, GMO's, unsafe ingredients such as Natamycin in shreaded cheese, or "food colorings" being unsafe for children, reports about Quaker Oats and Cheerios such
as below, all would be a nice echo to have for discussion within healthnet, if I may make such a request?

There is a phone app called Yuka that is excellent and may make for a great interactive echo if more download it, scan the food before puttin git in their grocery cart, and it may lead to discussion also. The App drills down into the ingredients on multiple levels: overall rating from Great to bad/unsafe, what ingredients are in it that are great to bad/unsafe, and lastly drilled down further into the "why" for each ingredients rating. One might find it interesting to discover how many ingredients lead to ADHD, Austism, kidney failure, and much worse. The app does a fantastic job at giving context to the "if you can't
pronounce it don't buy nor eat it" relating to the ingredients within America's food supply. It's helped keep our family more healthy and
might be fun channel to explore, or maybe not, but thought I

or maybe not, but thought I'd ask.
What name would you suggest for the conference area? Something like 'Eat Healthy' ?
