do the test ASAP. saves great deal of unnecessary heartache!!
much much better & wiser to do it now -before you’re dealing w/shidducim rather than once you’re interested in someone.

We’re talking here about real life issues. . . about outcomes of lack of the right testing of couples. . where is there room to crack jokes about eating well etc during an article like the one above. . How on earth is that connected to what is being spoken about here?? We’re talking Genetic Testing for LIFE ; Theres a time and a place to discuss ‘junk food’, and this is one place and one time that its totally NOT appropriate. . a bit of respect and understanding and compassion is badly needed here.

thank g-d for dor yeshorim!!

BS”D
if you really want to live a spiritual life i.e. you want to be more in tune with yourself and your soul, eating well is important.
try cutting out the garbage in your life and see how you feel.
It may make you feel so much happier and calmer.
Acutally, on the other hand it could make you realize how addicted you are to these nasty carcinogens. If you are real crabby, you are addicted.
I say no garbage food. Kosher food should be good for you.
what an oxymoronic statement – kosher garbage food?

Great stuff, BUT to see the coke in the background, is almost a slap in the face! Coke in itself a product that is worthy of discussion and elimination of our diets. in particular young women, future mothers, pregnant or going to become pregnant. BAD BAD HABITS. Areas we CAN have control over should not be overlooked. Lets try and raise healthy children.
Only good news and good things
