FACTORY FARMING ABUSES: Factory farming practices and uncontrolled greed have resulted in many of the animals we eat living in such cruel, filthy conditions that they must be fed a steady diet of antibiotics to stay alive - not alive and well by any means. This is neither humane nor is it healthy for us and our children. As a society that wishes to be civilized, intelligent and live longer we can do something about this. The Marlee Foundation is dedicated to getting measures to change these practices onto state ballots and to spreading awareness about the HALF-LIFE movement.

PLEASE CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING
- HUMANS HAVE EVOLVED FOR HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF YEARS EATING ANIMAL PRODUCTS SO IT IS UNLIKELY WE WILL ALL BECOME "VEGANS" OVERNIGHT.
- WE HAVE BEEN EATING ANIMAL PRODUCTS LOADED WITH ANTIBIOTICS & PRESERVATIVES FOR ONLY ABOUT 50 YEARS. THESE ADDITIVES ARE REQUIRED TO OFFSET THE DIRECT EFFECTS OF FILTHY, CRUEL (but profitable!) FACTORY FARMING PRACTICES.
- CANCER RATES AND AUTISM HAVE INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY IN THE LAST 50 YEARS.
- THE IMPOSSIBLE CRUELTY SOME OF THESE ANIMALS SUFFER IS ONLY "OK" IF YOU ARE NOT PAYING ATTENTION. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE - ITS NOT THAT HARD TO CHANGE BUYING AND EATING HABITS TO SEND A CLEAR MESSAGE TO OUR FOOD SUPPLIERS.
- 60 YEARS AGO IT WAS NOT UNCOMMON FOR DOCTORS TO SMOKE AROUND THEIR PATIENTS. NUTS, RIGHT! WELL THINGS CHANGE AND WE CAN CHANGE THIS TOO.
HOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
1. SUPPORT LEGISLATION TO PUNISH CRUEL AND UNSAFE FACTORY FARMING PRACTICES. A SUCCESSFUL MASSACHUSETTS REFERENDUM WAS VOTED IN DURING THE 2016 ELECTION. OVER 100,000 SIGNATURES WERE CANVASSED TO GET THIS ON THE BALLOT. PLEASE SUPPORT SUCH MEASURES IN YOUR STATE.

STEP 1. BUYING HABITS
BUY ONLY MEAT PRODUCTS LABELED:
- NO ANTIBIOTICS ADDED

- CAGE FREE
- FREE RANGE
- NO NITRITES

STEP 2. BUY 1/2 THE MEAT YOU NORMALLY BUY
Since these products can be up to twice as expensive
use half the meat and you will spend the same
money, be much healthier and probably lose weight.
STEP 3. EXPLORE NEW RECIPES THAT YOU ENJOY
You will be surprised at how tasty life can be with
half the typical amount of meat we are used to
eating. Below is a simple breakfast example that can

HALF-LIFE Avocado Toast Breakfast
"Moosh" 1/2 an avocado onto 1 large slice of interesting, toasted bread (seeded, whole grain, sourdough, etc.).
Cook one slice of humanely raised bacon or thin slices of 1/2 of a humanely raised sausage. This is very little meat but enough to provide plenty of flavor.
In a pan make a small, simple cage free, egg white omelet. Spread out and fold in the small amount of meat you have cooked.
Use the space in the pan that has been freed up to warm up a couple of tablespoons of your favorite salsa.
