How To

5 Reasons to buy organic products

Organic food is grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. They are free from genetically modified organisms and irradiated substances. They are not made with sewage sludge, industrial solvents, or any other chemical substances. During its growth, the food's natural environment remains unaffected by contamination. It does not contain artificial preservatives or additives. There are no hormones and antibiotics used. They are also grown in conditions that ensure they retain their nutritional value for longer periods of time.

1. Health benefits. Organic produce contains less chemicals than nonorganic. This makes it less likely to cause allergies or sensitivities. It also means you're consuming fewer toxins and carcinogens.
2. Eco-friendliness. Organically grown produce doesn't require synthetic fertilizer or pesticides. Organic farms are located far from cities where there is a lot of pollution, because they require so much energy to grow. This helps to reduce air pollution.
3. Sustainability. Organic farming relies more on soil fertility than chemical fertilizers. This results is healthier soils with higher organic matter. Rotating crops and allowing the soil to rest between harvests improves soil health. When farm animals eat only grasses and grains raised without any added hormones or antibiotics, they develop strong immune systems.
4. Taste. Because they are picked at their peak ripeness and then shipped long distances to supermarkets, conventional fruits and vegetables can often taste bland. Organic produce is sweeter and richer because it was harvested at the peak of its ripeness.
5. Nutrition. GMOs and BPA are common in processed foods. These harmful substances can be avoided by sticking to whole foods like meat, eggs, fish and nuts as well as seeds, beans, fruits, vegetables, and herbs.
