I don't mean to nit-pick, but you are using the 'fact' that "Using
antibiotics and vaccines is hardly natural, but is healthier than not
using them. " to support the premise that a 'natural' diet may not be
the healthiest way to go.  I beg to differ on whether or not it is a
proven fact that antibiotics and vaccines are in fact always a Good
Thing(tm).  In fact over on the yeasties mailing list, antibiotics are
quite possibly the source of a whole panoply of ailments.  (wondering
if I used "panoply" correctly  :))
