Frequently Asked Questions

What should I look out for when buying organic products?

USDA-certified organic labels are recommended. This certifies that the product has met certain standards set by USDA. Look out for the USDA Organic seal on boxes, cartons cans and jars.

When shopping for meat, ensure it comes from cows fed 100% organic feed. Ruminants are cattle that chew their cud. Ruminant cattle have 4 stomach compartments: Rumen, reticulum and omasum. Organic feeding must be done on all organs of the animal in order to get the cow labelled organic 100 percent.

When buying chicken, make sure it comes only from chickens fed 100% organic feed and never given antibiotics. Chickens are omnivores. This means they can eat both plant and animal food. The digestive tract of an omnivorous chicken is composed of a crop and proventriculus, gizzard as well as small intestine, large intestinale, and anus.

You should ensure you only buy dairy products made from milk that has been produced by cows who have been fed 100% organically grown food. Like ruminants, dairy cattle have four stomachs. Milk comes from the fourth stomach compartment--the udder.

When purchasing other types of livestock, check the label to see what percentage of the diet the animals were fed. For example, pork may be marked "95% organic" to indicate that 95 percent of the pork's feed is organic.

Is organic meat healthier?

If you've been paying any attention, you likely already know the answer. But here's the rub, organic food is becoming more popular while conventional food continues to fall out of favour.

Organic foods are becoming more popular because they are better for us. Organic foods are also safer for our overall health and reduce pollution.

However, there are also two sides to this coin. Organic produce takes longer and requires more resources. Organic food can be more expensive than its nonorganic counterpart.

Organic meats can be more expensive that those from conventionally raised animals. But there are ways to cut costs without sacrificing quality.

Buy locally to save money. Locally grown fruits and veggies help to lower prices because farmers get incentives to grow good crops.

Look for bargains to cut down on costs. There are often discounts offered when purchasing organics.

You can also save money by eating less meat. The feed required to raise cattle can make meat production expensive.

Organic food is healthier for the planet and our bodies than conventional food, but it's important to not overlook its cost.

What are the benefits of organic fruits?

Organic foods are grown without pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, hormones, or antibiotics. They are also richer in nutrients like vitamins C, E, K, and omega-3 fat acids. These nutritious ingredients make organic foods better for our bodies, and for the planet.

Organic foods are produced with sustainable farming practices that promote soil quality and biological diversity. They are free from harmful chemicals, radiation, and sewage sludge.

Organics are often associated with produce. However, organic products can include dairy, meat, poultry and eggs as well as personal care items and pet food.

The USDA defines organic as crops that are grown according to federal standards. These foods cannot be grown by farmers using conventional methods. They can use approved natural pest control methods such as crop rotation, cover cropping and organic animal feed.

The farmer must also follow the guidelines for how much fertilizer and insecticide he uses throughout the growing season. He must also rotate his fields among different crops. GMOs, synthetic insecicides, artificial growth hormones or synthetic fertilizers can't be used by farmers.

All the above requirements are met by vegetables and fruits that are labeled "100% Organic". But not all farms will label their products 100% organic. That would confuse consumers. Instead, they will label their product as "made with organic ingredients. "

What is inorganic?

Organic food is not produced with pesticides or artificial fertilizers. These chemicals can cause health problems in organic foods.

Organic food is organically grown without the use of harmful chemicals such as pesticides or herbicides. These chemicals can cause harm to animals and humans.

Inorganic food can include meat, fish eggs, buttermilk cheese, buttermilk, yogurt, honey grains, vegetables, fruits spices, and herbs.

Organic refers the way an agricultural product grows. Organic farming is based on natural methods, soil amendments, and crop growth. Conventional farming uses pesticides, fertilizers, and chemicals.

U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines must be followed when organic food is labeled. The National Organic Program Standards state that organic food must be freed from banned substances like antibiotics, growthhormones, genetically altered organisms (GMOs) and industrial solvents. Additionally, organic food must be raised without toxic chemicals, petroleum-based fertilizers, sewage sludges, or ionizing radiation.

What are organic beauty products?

Organic Beauty Products are natural products that do not contain any synthetic chemicals, including parabens. Phenoxyethanol, phthalates and artificial preservatives. These ingredients are common in cosmetics such as shampoos, perfumes, and cosmetics.

Organic beauty products are also free from animal testing and do not contain any genetically modified organisms (GMO).

The USDA defines the term' organic' as "a system of production that fosters cycling of resources" and has been used for decades to describe foodstuffs grown without pesticides.

The harmful effects of chemical compounds on our bodies have led to an increase in the demand for ecofriendly beauty products.

These include skin irritation, hormone imbalance, premature ageing, and cancer.

Organic beauty businesses are committed to providing safe, healthy products that consumers can use while protecting the environment.
