    [...] Leanne Ely is a Certified Nutritional Consultant, a New York Times best selling author and the author of the Saving Dinner series.   I really liked her message in a recent issue of her newsletter and share it with you below: Like it or not, health care reform has passed into law in the United States. I don't know about you, but the debate/fighting and demonizing really got on my last nerves. I found it stressful to even watch news reports on it anymore. But that isn't what this Food for Thought is about. I am of the opinion that true "health care reform" happens in your grocery store, not the drug store or in hospitals. Taking care of the only body you will ever own is a huge responsibility and, needless to say, so many folks just don't take it seriously. Eating the right food is less obvious than obeying the speed limit, wearing your seatbelts, quit smoking and bungee jumping, right? I mean those things are pretty obvious. But the fact is your odds of living a long and healthy life are dramatically impaired by what you eat and what you don't eat. The old adage is correct; you are what you eat. And I would take it a step further–your food choices are a direct reflection of whether you value your health or not. I know some people aren't going to like me for saying it, but it's not my opinion, it is fact: 147 billion dollars are spent every year on obesity-related illness. This figure has gone up 37% since the late 90's. I want to be an agent for change, to use a term I'm not too fond of. But I don't know what else to call it, so agent for change is it. I have some ideas that I believe could help folks have their own DIY Health Care Reform. In fact, I believe it could be revolutionary if taken seriously. [...]

    Every time I try to access Customer Service, I get a message that the company who does your support has phishing on their site. I just signed up for this service two days ago and can’t access your site. Can you address this here?

  • new subscriber

    Same problem as below – not that it has not been fixed in 6 days
    Our purchases must not be very important to you 

  • Leanne

    That phishing thing was an error that we reported and got removed, however it takes Google about a month to get things corrected on their pages. Sigh! So rest assured, all is well and safe!

  • Leanne

    Here’s the official word: Thanks for letting us know about the phishing warning.

    We are sorry about the inconvenience and unfortunately our site was attached
    to a database in which we were incorrectly tagged as being a ‘phishing’
    site. Please be assured that we are NOT a phishing site and we will never
    inquire about financial or personal details on our support site.

    We are working with our hosting company and Google to fix the issue, which
    is limited to Chrome and Mac browsers, and hope to have it back to working
    as soon as possible.

    For now, you can click on the link in the message that says “proceed anyway”
    and, again, be assured that our site is secure.

    do you have low sodium menus?

  • Jayne

    Can you please help with my recent order? I have entered a slightly incorrect email address during the ordering and payment process. What can I do?

  • Ronda

    I am trying to find an email of a customer service rep that I can contact. I bought the 3 month menu subscription on a groupon site a few months back. Now I was just charged again, and I do not want to continue. Who do I contact?

  • Suekay72

    I signed up 3 months ago to receive the menu mailer, but I am not receiving the menus in my e-mail.  When I go to the customer service link, there is a warning that the site has phishing on their site.  How do I get the menus to be e-mailed to me?  Unfortunately I have missed several weeks of menus because of this problem.  I feel I’m not getting what I paid for.  This problem is getting frustrating.  Please help.  

  • Clang002

    I give. I have not been able to see or download a mailer in over two years. I follow the directions and it does not ever show the items I am supposed to see. I keep trying to submit a ticket to customer service. I always get a fatal error. Is there any other way to get ahold of customer service? I have paid for this as it keeps auto-renewing and I loved it before you changed to this new site. Help please
