Frequently Asked Questions
Are organic foods better for us?
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. They found that organic apples contained eight times fewer pesticides than non-organic apples, while organic strawberries were four times cleaner than their conventional counterparts.
Other studies suggest that eating organic food reduces exposure to toxic metals like lead and mercury. For instance, one study showed that children who consumed organic meat had 33% less blood lead levels than children who did not. Another study concluded traditional fish should not be consumed by pregnant women, due to high mercury levels.
Organic food seems to be safer than the non-organic. Experts recommend eating fresh fruits and veggies whenever possible to reduce the chance of developing cancer.
What is the difference between organic and inorganic foods?
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 food is grown with pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Radiation can be used to destroy food, while genetically modified organisms are created by biological engineering.
The term "natural" is often used interchangeably with "organic." Natural does not necessarily have to mean organic. You may also find products that are labeled as "natural", which could contain synthetic ingredients.
Because organic produce contains fewer harmful chemicals, pesticides, and fertilizers than conventional produce it is more nutritious. In addition, organic farmers do not use artificial fertilizers, hormones, antibiotics, or pesticides.
What are the benefits to organic farming?
Organic farming gives farmers the opportunity to grow food without the use of chemical pesticides. Organic farming is a way for farmers to produce food without using harmful pesticides.
Organic farming can also use natural fertilizers. These fertilizers are good for plants that are healthy and reduce chemical waste.
Organic farming is also beneficial for the environment. For example, organic farming uses composting techniques to re-use nutrients in the soil. This helps to reduce pollution and conserve valuable resources.
Organic farming can increase crop yields and help the environment. Because organic farming uses less water during the growing season, this is why it is so successful.
Organic farming methods can also result in higher prices for farmers' produce. Healthier foods are demanded by consumers who are more aware of the dangers posed by pesticides and chemical fertilisers.
This drives up the demand for organic products. Organic farming is becoming more popular because of this.
Why is organic produce important?
It is essential for our health to eat organic produce. It's the best way to ensure we eat nutritious foods. It's not only better for us but also it's more sustainable as it doesn't rely upon pesticides and fertilers.
Organic farming uses natural methods to grow crops without harmful chemicals. This means fewer environmental pollutants, making it safer for humans and animals. By choosing organic food, you are protecting the planet as well as yourself.
The benefits of organic food go beyond our health, though. We all know how toxic processed food can make you feel. Did you know that organic fruits and veggies aren't subject to chemical spray? It means that organic fruits, vegetables and other foods are fresher tasting, more vibrant and last longer.
Because of this, organic foods are so important. Organic is healthy for your health and for the environment.

How To
What happens when you switch from conventional products to organic?
Organic products do not contain synthetic fertilizers or hormones. They are free-range and come from clean water sources. They are organic because they don't contain any additives or chemicals. This product is natural and does not contain any harmful substances.
Natural refers to the way food was grown. This term is often used to refer to foods that are not processed into final forms (such as fruits). Natural foods are often more fresh than others, because they haven’t been processed with heat, radiation or chemical preservations. However, some people believe natural doesn't necessarily mean healthy. Experts agree that organic and conventional foods are very similar. Both types can be tested for safety and quality. Organic produce is less likely to contain pesticide residues and pollutants than conventionally grown produce.
Most grocery shops now carry organic options. Organic meat, poultry or eggs can be found at most local markets. Some companies offer only organic products while others have separate sections. Look for USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, Biodynamic Association Certified, Rainforest Alliance Certified, etc.
If you are pregnant, or nursing, these products should not be eaten. Pesticides have been shown to harm infants and unborn babies.
