Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I choose organic?

There have been many health problems linked to conventional farming, including allergies, asthma, diabetes, obesity, cancer, birth defects and hormone imbalances. You must make healthy choices when buying food.

Here are some tips from the Environmental Working Group (EWG).

Always purchase organic fruits, vegetables and other products whenever possible.

USDA organic labels should be used on meat, poultry and eggs as well as milk, cheese, yogurt, butter, honey, and other dairy products.

Avoid processed foods that claim to be "natural" and "no additives."

Always read the ingredient lists. If an ingredient isn’t listed, it might be added during processing.

Choose fresh meats over frozen or canned ones. Foods that are frozen or canned often have less nutritionally-rich ingredients, such as high fructosecorn syrup.

What are my top priorities when buying organic products

USDA-certified organic labels are recommended. This guarantee that the product has met specific standards set forth by USDA. On all packages, boxes and cartons, look for the USDA Organic seal.

When you shop for meat, ensure that it comes from cows who are fed organic feed. Cattle are ruminants, which means they chew the cud. Ruminant cattle have four stomach areas: rumen (reticulum), omasum (omasum), and abomasum. If the cow is to be labeled "100% organic", all of its parts must have been organically fed.

Make sure you only buy chicken from chicken farms that are fed organically and have never been given antibiotics. Chickens are omnivores, meaning they eat both plants and animals. Omnivorous chickens have a digestive system that includes a crop (proventriculus), gizzard and small intestine.

When buying dairy products, ensure they come from cows fed 100% organically grown feed. Like ruminants, dairy cattle have four stomachs. The fourth stomach compartment--the cow's udder--is where milk is produced.

Check the label when purchasing livestock of any other type to find out what percentage was used in the animal's diet. One example is pork that may be labeled '95% Organic'. This means that 95 percent came from organic sources.

How do you determine if food has been grown organically?

Ask any chef and he will tell you that fresh ingredients are the most important thing. Because we feel better when we eat well.

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 it wasn't treated with harmful chemicals.

Organic food does not contain synthetic pesticides, fertilers, hormones or antibiotics. These substances are not permitted to organic farmers.

However, organic farming is not an easy task. There are many ways to safely grow organic crops.

Sometimes, organic farming is called sustainable agriculture. This means that organic farming does not use as many resources as conventional methods, but it still provides the essential nutrients needed to sustain life.

Organic farming practices include crop rotations and cover crops, manure composting, intercropping, and cover cropping. These techniques help prevent soil erosion and improve water quality.

They reduce the amount of chemical runoff that can enter waterways. Since most of us live in urban areas, we can find local farms that raise organic produce.

There are two types of certification programs for organic products. One is certified through the USDA National Organic Program and the other by independent certifying agents. Both require strict adherence of organic standards.

Certified organic products may bear the USDA seal or the symbol O Seal, which indicates that the product meets federal requirements.

What is organic meat exactly?

Organic meat is real food grown without pesticides, artificial fertilizers, or hormones. It also means that the animals weren't fed any genetically modified feed. The meat is safe to consume because it contains no harmful chemicals.

Organic meats are also healthier for the environment. Eating organic foods helps reduce pollution in the environment, such as rivers and lakes. Organic farmers are less likely to use toxic chemicals to kill birds or insects. This helps protect wildlife.

Buy organic meats whenever possible. This is the best way for you to eat healthy, organic meats. Local purchases help keep more money within the community than traveling out of state. Local businesses often pass savings on to customers who shop locally. Shopping locally keeps American jobs in America, rather than sending them abroad.

What are organic products that can be used on the skin?

Organic skincare products do not contain synthetic chemicals like parabens,phthalates, mineral oils, petroleum jelly or petrolatum.

Organic skincare products can be free of artificial colours and fragrances as well as preservatives, emulsifiers GMOs, Petrochemicals, animal testing (except for cosmetics tested on animals), pesticides hormones, antibiotics, heavy metallics 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 does not have added fragrance or essential oils.
• Cruelty free - No animals were endangered during the manufacturing process.
• Natural Ingredients - The ingredient is derived naturally from the animal or plant.
• Vegetarian/Vegetarian- The ingredients are either vegan/vegetarian.
• Gluten-Free means that the formulation was free of gluten.
• 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: No pesticides used during growing or harvesting.
• GMO-Free means that no ingredient in the product contains genetically modified organisms.
• Certified Organic means that all of the ingredients in the formula were grown using methods that protect the soil, water, air, wildlife, and farmers.

What is organic food?

Organic food is not produced with pesticides or artificial fertilizers. These chemicals could cause health problems for those who eat inorganic food.

Organic food is produced naturally and without any harmful substances, such as chemical fertilizers or pesticides. These chemicals can harm humans and animals.

Inorganic food includes meat, fish, eggs, milk, cheese, butter, yogurt, honey, grains, vegetables, fruits, spices, and herbs.

The term organic refers to the way an agricultural product is grown. 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 (USDA), must ensure that organic food meets strict standards. The National Organic Program Standards require that all organic foods are free of prohibited substances such as antibiotics and growth hormones, genetically modified organisms or industrial solvents. Organic food must also be free from toxic chemicals, petroleum based fertilizers, sewage effluents and ionizing radiation.

How To

Are there downsides to buying organic products?

Organic food offers many benefits. There are however some downsides. There are also higher consumer prices and lower quality standards.

It is okay to want more variety when shopping for groceries. We're conditioned to expect low-quality foods that taste bad. This is why most grocery stores stock identical prepackaged products.

But today, organic food is becoming increasingly popular because it offers better nutrition and tastes great. How can you convince people it is worth spending a little more?

You could also tell them organic food is more expensive. Organic food tastes better, but that doesn't make it any less expensive. They might be suspicious of your motives.

Instead, it would be best if you highlighted its advantages. 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. If they take into account the health benefits, however, they might decide that spending a few extra dollars per week is worthwhile.

Organic food tastes better because it is produced according to strict guidelines. Organic food is more likely to contain vitamins, minerals, or antioxidants.

Organic food tastes better as it is harvested later in season. This makes the food more fresh and easier to digest.

Organic food is usually cheaper than conventional food because it is grown organically by farmers, which means that they use less fertilizer and labour.
