Frequently Asked Questions
What are organic products that can be used on the skin?
Organic skincare products are made without synthetic chemicals such as parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, petrolatum, petroleum jelly, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulphate, talc, triclosan, titanium dioxide, triethanolamine, vitamin A palmitate, etc.
Organic skincare products are also free of artificial colours, fragrances, preservatives, emulsifiers, GMOs, petrochemicals, animal testing (except cosmetics tested on animals), pesticides, hormones, antibiotics, heavy metals, and other contaminants.
They also help to preserve healthy skin and prevent premature aging.
These are some standard terms you might come across when shopping for organic items:
- Paraben Free: These are chemicals that keep certain cosmetic products stable. However, they can be toxic if used in large quantities.
- Fragrance-Free: The product is free of essential oils or fragrances.
- Cruelty Free - No animals were injured during the manufacturing process.
- Natural Ingredients - The ingredient is derived naturally from the animal or plant.
- Vegan/Vegetarian - the ingredients are either vegan or vegetarian.
- Gluten-Free is a label that indicates that no gluten was added to the product.
- Non-Toxic - The product doesn't contain toxins, carcinogens, or other dangerous compounds that could harm your health.
- Biodegradable - the product will break down into harmless components when discarded.
- Pesticide Free – There were no pesticides used during the harvesting or growing process.
- GMO-Free refers to the fact that no ingredients in the product contain genetically modified organisms.
- Certified Organic refers to ingredients that were grown using methods that protect soil, water, air, wildlife and farmers.
What is inorganic food?
Organic food does not use pesticides or fertilizers. Inorganic foods contain these chemicals, which may cause health problems.
Organic food is produced naturally and without any harmful substances, such as chemical fertilizers or pesticides. These chemicals can be dangerous for both humans and animals.
Inorganic food is meat, fish, eggs and dairy products, including butter, yogurts honey, yogurts, butter, cream, cheese, butter, yogurts, honey and grains.
The way that an agricultural product is grown organically is what the term means. For example, organic farming uses natural methods and soil amendments to grow crops, while conventional farming uses synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.
U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines must be followed when organic food is labeled. According to the National Organic Program Standards, all certified organic food must be free from prohibited materials such as antibiotics, growth hormones, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and industrial solvents. Organic food must not be produced with toxic chemicals, petroleum or sewage sludges or ionizing radioactive substances.
Why should you buy organic?
Conventional agriculture has been linked with many health problems including asthma, allergies. Make healthy food choices.
Here are some tips from the Environmental Working Group (EWG).
When possible, buy organic fruits and veggies
Look for USDA organic labels on meat, poultry, eggs, milk, cheese, yogurt, butter, and honey.
Avoid processed foods that claim to be "natural" and "no additives."
Make sure you read through all the ingredients. If an ingredient isn't listed, it may be added during processing.
It is better to eat fresh meats than canned or frozen. Many frozen and canned foods contain less nutrients, like high fructose Corn Syrup.
Are organic foods better?
According to the Environmental Working Group's recent report on pesticide residues within foods, organic fruits & vegetables contained nearly half of the pesticides that non-organic varieties. The Environmental Working Group found that organic apples contained eight-times less pesticides than other non-organic fruits, and organic strawberries had fourfold more than their conventional counterparts.
Another study suggests that organic food can reduce exposure to toxic metals such as lead and mercury. 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. A second study found that conventional fish should be avoided by pregnant women due to the high levels of mercury.
Organic food is generally safer than non-organic. Experts recommend that you choose fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible to lower your chance of developing cancer or other diseases.
How can I determine if my produce was organic?
These labels will help you ensure that organic produce is purchased.
USDA Organic Certified- This product has been certified organic by the USDA.
Certified Naturally Grown – Produce that meets strict organic standards but has not received USDA certification.
Pastured/Free range - These are animals that live outside and graze freely on grasses and herbs.
These labels indicate whether the product meets certain criteria.
- No pesticides nor synthetic fertilizers
- No genetically modified organisms
- The animal is never given antibiotics
- No hormones are ever given to the animal
- No growth-promoting drug
- No feed additives
- No artificial ingredients
- No irradiation
- No sewage effluent
- GMOs banned
- There have never been any antibiotics given.
- No hormones ever given
- There are no growth-promoting drugs
- No feed-additives
- No artificial ingredients
- No sewage waste (if it's non-GMO).
- No irradiation

What's the difference between organic foods and inorganic food?
Organic food is produced without pesticides, chemical fertilizers, sewage sludge, irradiation, or genetic modification. Organic farming practices improve soil health and water quality as well as animal welfare.
Inorganic foods are grown with pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and sewage sludge. Radiation can be used to destroy food, while genetically modified organisms are created by biological engineering.
Sometimes, the term "natural", is used interchangeably with "organic." But, "natural" does not necessarily refer to organic. Products labelled "natural", however, may contain synthetic chemicals.
Organic produce is more nutritious than traditional produce due to the fact that it contains less harmful chemicals and pesticides. Organic farmers also don't use synthetic fertilizers or hormones, pesticides, or antibiotics.
Statistics
- According to a study performed by consumerreports.org, organic products, compared to non-organic products, ranged anywhere from 13 percent cheaper to 303 percent more expensive. (en.wikipedia.org)
- When packaged products indicate they are “made with organic [specific ingredient or food group],” they contain at least 70% organically produced ingredients. (usda.gov)
- Brands participating in this challenge are committed to using 100 percent sustainable cotton by 2025.[5] (en.wikipedia.org)
- As for organic meat, regulations require that animals be raised in living conditions that accommodate their natural behaviours (like the ability to graze on pasture), fed 100% organic feed and forage, and not administered antibiotics or hormones. (usda.gov)

How To
Are there any disadvantages to purchasing organic products
The benefits of organic food are well known. There are, however, some drawbacks. There are also higher consumer prices and lower quality standards.
It's okay to want more variety in grocery shopping. We have been trained to expect inferior food that tastes bad. That's why you'll find most grocery stores stocked with identical prepackaged products.
But today, organic food is becoming increasingly popular because it offers better nutrition and tastes great. How do you convince people to spend a little more for organic food?
It's possible to tell them that organic food is more expensive. It doesn't change the fact that organic food tastes more delicious. It might even make them suspicious of your motives.
It would be better to highlight its benefits. Organic food is richer in nutrients and contains fewer pesticides and antibiotics. Plus, it's grown without synthetic fertilizers and herbicides, which means it's healthier for us and our environment.
Many people avoid organic food because they assume it's too expensive. However, if they look at the health benefits, organic food may be worth the cost.
Organic food tastes better as it's manufactured under strict guidelines that avoid contamination. As a result, it tends to retain more vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
Organic food tastes better because it is picked later in the season. This makes it easier to digest and fresher.
Organic food is usually cheaper than conventional food because it is grown organically by farmers, which means that they use less fertilizer and labour.
