Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best organic vegetables for you?
Organic vegetables are the most nutritious and healthy food source for humans. They are considered the healthiest food on Earth.
Organic produce is grown without chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and GMO seeds. These chemicals pose severe dangers to our health as well as the environment.
Organic produce contains more nutrients, vitamins and minerals. This makes them healthier because we absorb these nutrients better when eating organics.
Organic vegetables are delicious and safe to eat. There are no known side effects associated with consuming organic produce.
Any grocery store can sell organic fruits and vegetables. They can be labeled organic if they are grown according to USDA guidelines.
Are organic foods healthier?
According to the Environmental Working Group, organic vegetables and fruits had half the amount of pesticides as non-organic. They found that organic apples contained eight times fewer pesticides than non-organic apples, while organic strawberries were four times cleaner than their conventional counterparts.
Some studies also suggest that eating organic food helps reduce your exposure to toxic metals, such as mercury and lead. For example, one study showed that children who ate organic meat had 33 percent lower blood lead levels than those who didn't consume organic meats. Another study concluded conventional fish consumption should be stopped by pregnant women because it contains high levels of mercury.
Organic food tends to be healthier than nonorganic. Experts recommend eating fresh fruits and veggies whenever possible to reduce the chance of developing cancer.
Organic means it is free from pesticides?
Organic food does not contain pesticides or chemicals and is therefore chemical-free. This means that organic foods are not subject to chemical pesticides or fertilizers.
Organic produce contains more nutrients and is healthier than conventionally manufactured foods, as it does not contain any harmful additives.
The USDA National Organic Program (NOP), requires that farmers follow strict guidelines when growing organic crops.
These guidelines address soil preparation, crop rotations, pest control, water conservation, harvesting, and other practices.
Organic farming also promotes healthy ecosystems which are beneficial to wildlife and natural habitats.
How do you know if your food is organic?
Fresh ingredients are what chefs value the most. That's because when we eat well, we feel better.
The same goes for our food. We can identify exactly where and how organic foods were grown when we purchase them. We also know that organics were not treated with harmful chemicals.
Organic food does not contain synthetic pesticides, fertilers, hormones or antibiotics. These substances are not permitted to organic farmers.
But that doesn't mean there isn't an art to growing organic crops. There are many ways to safely grow organic crops.
Sometimes, organic farming is called sustainable agriculture. It is a less resource-intensive alternative to conventional farming, but still provides enough nutrients to sustain life.
Organic farming practices include crop rotation, composting manure, cover cropping, and intercropping. These techniques help prevent soil erosion and improve water quality.
They also reduce chemical contamination of waterways. Because most people live in urban areas, it is easy to find farms that grow organic produce.
Two types of organic product certification programs exist. One is certified by the USDA National Organic Program, and the other is certified by independent certifying agencies. Both require strict compliance with organic standards.
USDA seals or O Seals can be applied to organic products. This symbol indicates that the product meets federal requirements.
What are some of the most popular organic products in your country?
The fastest-growing industry is organic food. There is still much to be done, even though we have come so far from our roots.
Organic products will be the future. They are safer, better for our environment, and more affordable for consumers.
They also tend to have higher prices. That's why we created the Organic Food Index. We wanted the ability to identify which foods are currently most popular and whether these trends have changed.
The results showed that organic food is increasing in popularity. Between 2011-2012, nearly half of Americans shopped for organic foods.
According to USDA, organic production grew by 10% last year. Organic food now makes up 9% U.S. agriculture output.
Organic food is growing in popularity but is still expensive. According to the Organic Trade Association, (OTA), organic food retail prices are nearly twice as expensive than conventional options.
The organic food sector is growing faster than other segments of the food supply. Looking closely at the data, you'll see that organic food consumption has grown steadily since 2009.
In fact, according to OTA, the volume of organic products sold in supermarkets grew by 14% between 2010 and 2011.
This is because of consumer demand for healthier products, which explains the rise in organic food sales across all age categories.
The younger generation is however leading the charge for organic food. Millennials are twice as likely than baby boomers to buy organic foods. And young adults under 35 years old account for 25% of all organic food purchases.
Why is organic food important
Organic produce is important for our health. Organic produce is the best way to eat healthy foods. It's not only better for us but also it's more sustainable as it doesn't rely upon pesticides and fertilers.
Organic farming relies on natural methods to cultivate crops, without the use of harmful chemicals. This results in fewer environmental pollutants and makes organic farming safer. Organic food is a way to help the environment and protect yourself.
But organic food offers more than just health benefits. We all know how unhealthy processed foods can make us feel. You might not know this, but organic fruits and vegetables don't have to be treated with chemicals. It means that organic fruits and vegetables taste better, last longer, and are brighter.
It's because organic is healthy for you and the planet. Because it's not only healthy for you, it's healthier for the world.
What is organic meat?
Organic meat is food that has not been treated with pesticides or artificial fertilizers. Organic meat also indicates that animals were not fed genetically modified food. Because there are no harmful chemicals in the meat, it is safe for human consumption.
Organic meats are good for the environment. Organic foods reduce pollution in rivers, lakes and landfills. We can also help wildlife by eating organic foods. Organic farmers do not often use toxic chemicals that can kill birds or insects.
Buy organic meats whenever possible. This is the best way for you to eat healthy, organic meats. Local buying helps to keep money in the community, rather than moving out of state. Local businesses often pass on savings to customers shopping locally. Shopping locally helps to keep American workers employed, as opposed to sending them overseas.

How To
What happens to your body when you switch to organic products?
Organic products are grown without pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, hormones, antibiotics, or genetic manipulation. They are free-range and come from clean water sources. Organic means that they are free from chemicals and additives. This product was created by nature, and therefore does not contain harmful substances.
Natural means how food is grown. It's used to describe foods that have not been altered into their final form (e.g. fruits). Natural foods are often fresher than others because they haven't been treated with heat, radiation, or chemical preservatives. But, not everyone believes that natural foods are healthy. Experts say that there aren't many differences between organic and conventional food. Both types of food are tested for safety, quality, and purity. Organic produce has less pesticide residues and pollutant than conventionally grown food.
Most grocery stores now sell organic products. Check with your local market if you want organic meat, poultry, dairy, eggs, and seafood. Some companies offer only organic products while others have separate sections. USDA Certified Organic, Non GMO Project Verified. Biodynamic Association Certified. Rainforest Alliance Certified.
These products should not be consumed if you are pregnant. Unborn babies and infants can be affected by pesticides.
