Frequently Asked Questions
Is organic food healthier?
There are two types. Those we grow or those we get from someone else. There are exceptions, but the majority of the time, both options will be available. Organic food is healthier as it doesn't contain any harmful chemicals or pesticides, herbicides and preservatives.
Organic food can be found in supermarkets throughout North America, Europe and Asia. Many grocery stores now sell organic food. This makes it easier for customers to select organic products.
Organic food has higher levels vitamins, minerals and antioxidants which makes it more delicious and nutritious. Organics are grown without using pesticides and fertilizers. They also don't pollute soil or water.
Organic farming is regulated by the USDA. Farmers must follow strict guidelines to ensure safe eating. There are currently over 30 million acres of US farmland certified as organic.
Organic food is often cheaper than traditional food. Customers pay less for the same amount in calories, protein and nutrients. Organic farms don't have the expense of expensive chemical inputs, such as insecticides and/or fungicides. They can charge lower prices.
According to the Environmental Working Group Organic food is actually 10 percent more expensive per pound than conventionally grown food. Switching to organic food is a smart move if you care about your health and that of your family.
Organic food is becoming a popular option to the standard American diet. Although many may think that organic food is only available at specialty markets and gourmet restaurants, this isn't true. Organic food can be purchased in most grocery stores across the United States.
The sales of organic food have increased dramatically in recent years. In 2012, the US market value for organic food was $43 Billion. This is an increase of $21 Billion from 2007.
Do organic foods offer health benefits?
Although organic foods are not for everyone, they can be very healthy. However, regular consumption of organic foods can have health benefits.
Organic food is produced without artificial fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, hormones, antibiotics, or genetic engineering. Organic produce is produced without the use of harmful chemicals which could affect human health.
There are also fewer additives used during processing. So when you buy an organic product, you're likely eating healthier than non-organic products.
Studies have shown that organic foods are more nutritious and rich in antioxidants than fruits and veggies grown from conventional sources.
Even though organic farming methods can be more costly than conventional farming methods they are often more productive. When farmers grow crops organically, they encourage soil fertility and biodiversity.
This helps prevent erosion and conserve water. Plus, because organic farms aren't treated with toxic chemicals, these farms typically require less energy and fuel.
Some people worry that organic foods are more expensive than conventional ones. Prices can vary depending on where you live. Organic apples, on the other hand, tend to be more expensive that conventional apples.
But, if we look at the total cost of a combination of both types and fruits, we'll see organic is much cheaper.
So should you go organic?
It depends on you. It doesn't matter if organic food isn't for you.
Organic food is available if you are a fan of good food. And since most commercial growers use chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs), organic foods are safer for consumers.
Organic agriculture conserves the environment and promotes biodiversity.
Why should I go organic?
There have been many health problems linked to conventional farming, including allergies, asthma, diabetes, obesity, cancer, birth defects and hormone imbalances. When buying food, you must make wise choices.
Here are some tips from the Environmental Working Group (EWG).
As much as possible, purchase organic fruits or vegetables
USDA organic labels are required for meat, poultry, eggs and milk.
Avoid processed foods marked "natural" or with "no additives."
Make sure you read through all the ingredients. If an ingredient doesn't appear on the list, it could be added to the product during processing.
Fresh meats are better than canned or frozen. Cans and frozen foods are often less nutritious than fresh meats, such as high fructose corn syrup.
Does organic mean it is pesticide-free?
Organic food does not contain pesticides or chemicals and is therefore chemical-free. This means that organic food is not exposed to pesticides or fertilizers.
Because organic produce is free of harmful additives, it also has more nutrients than conventionally grown foods.
Farmers must follow strict guidelines to grow organic crops under the USDA National Organic Program (NOP).
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 To
How to get Organic Meat on a budget
In this article, I will share my tips and tricks for buying organic meat without having to break the bank.
You will learn where to buy cheap organic meats, and what they cost per pound. You will be able to make the most of what you have purchased.
Healthy eating doesn't require you to spend a lot. Sometimes you need to be creative in order to save money and still eat healthy. Here's my list to help you keep food costs low while still enjoying all the health benefits of organic meat.
- Shop at wholesale clubs - Sams Club or Costco are great places to buy bulk foods such as chicken breasts and pork chops. You can often find deals on large quantities (up to 50 pounds) if you live close to one of these stores. This way you won't end up with any leftover meat. And if you buy it in bulk, you can freeze it, so it lasts longer.
- Online shopping is a great way to find meat at a discounted price. Amazon offers Prime Pantry weekly deals, including free shipping for orders above $35 They offer discounts on beef roasts, ground beef, lamb steaks, and pork loins. It is easy to browse their website and check out what is on offer at different times.
- Local farmers often charge less than big box retailers due to the fact that they don't have large overheads for stocking their shelves. Because they know exactly the diets and drinks of their animals, local farmers can provide a better understanding of what's inside.
- You should look for the leanest cuts of meat. Lean meat is typically cheaper to cook than fatty. Look for the tiniest cuts. The most commonly used cuts include flank steak, tenderloin and top round steaks. These cuts have high protein and low fat.
- Explore new recipes. Don't be afraid of trying new things. Start cooking with ingredients that you have never used before. This is one of the easiest ways reduce your grocery costs. You'll be surprised at how many delicious dishes can you create using fresh tomatoes.
- Remaining meat and poultry can be used for sandwiches, salads or soups. Leftover meat is perfect for making quick lunches or dinners.
Here you have it! Here are some tips on how you can afford organic meat despite being on a strict budget. What other tips do you have? Are you able to give me any tips on how to get cheap meat?
