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 is free from artificial additives and preservatives. No hormones or antibiotics are used. They are also made in conditions that maintain their nutritional value and freshness for longer times.
- Health benefits. Nonorganic produce is more chemically-laden than organic. This makes it less likely to cause allergies or sensitivities. This means you're also consuming less toxic and carcinogens.
- Eco-friendliness. Organically grown produce doesn't require synthetic fertilizer or pesticides. Organic farms are often located far from areas with high levels of pollution because it takes so much energy for conventional agriculture to grow. This helps reduce pollution.
- Sustainability. Organic farming relies on soil fertility rather than chemical fertilizers; this results in healthier soils with higher levels of organic matter. The rotation of crops and the letting of land fallow can improve soil health. Strong immune systems develop when farm animals are fed only grasses grown without antibiotics or added hormones.
- 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.
- Nutrition. GMOs and BPA can be found in many processed foods. You can avoid them by sticking with whole foods such meat, fish, eggs, seafood, seeds and beans, as well as fruits, veggies, herbs, and vegetables.
