Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between organic and inorganic foods?
Organic food is free from pesticides, chemical fertilizers and sewage sludge. It can also be grown without irradiation or genetic modification. Organic farming practices promote soil health, water quality and animal welfare.
Inorganic foods can be grown using pesticides, chemical fertilizers and sewage sludge. Radiated foods are those that have been exposed to radiation. Genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, are created using biological engineering techniques.
"Organic" and "natural" are often interchangeable. But natural does not necessarily imply organic. Products labelled "natural", however, may contain synthetic chemicals.
Organic produce is typically more nutritious than conventional produce because the soil contains fewer harmful chemicals and pesticides. Organic farmers are free from artificial fertilizers and pesticides.
Why should I buy organic?
The health risks of conventional agriculture include asthma, allergies and diabetes. 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 are required for meat, poultry, eggs and milk.
Avoid processed foods that are labeled "natural" or "no added ingredients."
Carefully review ingredient lists. If an ingredient isn’t listed, it might be added during processing.
You should choose fresh meats rather than frozen or canned. Canned and frozen foods can often have lower nutritional content like high fructose syrup.
Is organic meat more nutritious?
If you have been paying attention for long enough, you will probably know the answer. But here's the rub, organic food is becoming more popular while conventional food continues to fall out of favour.
Organic foods continue to be popular because they offer a healthier alternative. Organic products are not only safer for our health but also reduce pollution and waste.
But there are two sides to this coin. Organic produce takes longer and requires more resources. Organic food is generally more expensive than nonorganic.
Organic meats can be more expensive that those from conventionally raised animals. However, there are ways to reduce these costs without sacrificing quality.
Buy local to save money. Locally grown produce helps to keep the prices down because farmers are given incentives to grow healthy crops.
Look for bargains to cut down on costs. When you purchase organics, there are often discounts.
Finally, another way to save money is by eating less meat. Due to the cost of raising livestock, meat production can be expensive.
There are many reasons organic foods are better for our bodies and the environment, but we need to be mindful of the cost.
Why is organic foods important?
Organic produce is vital for our health. It's the best method to ensure you eat healthy foods. Not only is it better for us, but it's also more environmentally friendly because it doesn't rely on pesticides and fertilizers.
Organic farming relies on natural methods to cultivate crops, without the use of harmful chemicals. This makes organic farming safer for both humans and animals. When you choose organic food, both you and the earth are protected.
The benefits of organic food go beyond our health, though. We all know how toxic processed food can make you feel. However, organic fruits & vegetables aren’t treated with chemical sprays. That means that they taste fresher, look brighter and last longer too.
That's why eating organic matters so much. Because organic is healthier for you as well as for the world.

How To
What happens to your body when you switch to organic products?
Organic products are produced without the use of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. They are derived from clean water and animals that have been free to roam. The term "organic" means they do not contain any chemicals or additives. This product was produced by nature and therefore contains no harmful substances.
The term "natural", refers only to how food was grown. It's used to describe foods that have not been altered into their final form (e.g. fruits). Natural foods are often fresher because they're not subject to heat radiation, chemical preservatives or any other treatment. However, some people believe natural doesn't necessarily mean healthy. Experts say that there aren't many differences between organic and conventional food. Both types are tested for safety as well as quality. Organic produce is safer than conventionally produced produce.
Most grocery stores offer organic options. Check with your local market if you want organic meat, poultry, dairy, eggs, and seafood. Some companies sell only organic products. Other companies have separate sections. USDA Certified Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified are some of the options.
These foods should be avoided by women who are pregnant or breast-feeding. Pesticides have been shown to harm infants and unborn babies.
