We go through phases with it. We will go completely additive free for a month, and low preservative which is including natural preservatives like salicylites, then we will allow some in but still restricted to low attitive.

I found it is easy to do, when we allow some in its generally when someone else buys something and brings it here, or if I am having people over and we buy a packet of biscuits that aren't good.

I just get used to what we buy and I make most of our food from scratch. We don't buy take out, but tonight we are getting a BBQ chook from our local free range/organic chook shop.... so I reckon it is the lessor of evils out there... with a salad and mashed potatoes. Thats the closest to take out we get.

If I feel that we are eating too many additives, we go off all of them for a month and detox that way.
