Frequently Asked Questions

Why is organic food important?

For our health, organic produce is crucial. Organic produce is the best way to eat healthy foods. It's better for us and more sustainable because it doesn’t depend on pesticides or fertilizers.

Organic farming uses natural methods of cultivating crops that are free from harmful chemicals. This means fewer environmental pollutants, making it safer for humans and animals. When you choose organic food, both you and the earth are protected.

But organic food offers more than just health benefits. We all know how toxic processed food can make you feel. But did you know that most organic fruits and vegetables aren't treated with chemical spray either? This means they are more fresh tasting, last longer and look better.

It's because organic is healthy for you and the planet. Organic is healthy for your health and for the environment.

What are organic food products?

Organic produce can be grown without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. No growth hormones are used. Animal testing is also not done. These crops can grow naturally so that farmers don't have to use pesticides or weed control.

Organic farming practices help maintain soil quality and reduce erosion. In addition, organics are better for our health because they contain more nutrients than conventional food. Organic products are typically higher in fiber and lower in fat and calories than conventionally produced ones.

Are organic foods better for us?

According to the Environmental Working Group’s latest report on pesticide residues, organic fruits/vegetables had nearly half as many pesticides than non-organic. 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.

Studies have also shown that organic foods reduce the risk of mercury and lead poisoning. One study found that organic meats had 33 percent less lead in children than the levels of those who did not eat them. Another study concluded that pregnant women should avoid consuming conventional fish due to high levels of mercury.

Overall, organic food does seem to be safer than its non-organic counterpart. Experts recommend that you choose fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible to lower your chance of developing cancer or other diseases.

Are there health benefits to eating organic food?

Even though organic foods might not be for everyone, there are some health benefits. They can be beneficial for your health if you eat them often.

Organic food is produced without artificial fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, hormones, antibiotics, or genetic engineering. Organic produce does not contain harmful chemicals that could be harmful to the human body.

There are also fewer additives used during processing. So when you buy an organic product, you're likely eating healthier than non-organic products.

Studies have shown organic foods have more nutrients and antioxidants that conventionally grown fruits, vegetables.

While organic farming is more expensive than traditional farming, it often produces better results. Organic farming promotes soil fertility as well as biodiversity.

This helps to prevent erosion and conserve water resources. Plus, because organic farms aren't treated with toxic chemicals, these farms typically require less energy and fuel.

Many people are concerned that organic food is more expensive than regular foods. Prices will vary depending where you live. Organic apples, for example, are more expensive than regular apples.

But, if we look at the total cost of a combination of both types and fruits, we'll see organic is much cheaper.

Should you buy organic?

It all depends on who you are. Organic food is not for you if you don’t like it.

Organic food is available if you are a fan of good food. Organic food is safer than traditional commercial produce, as they are not subject to chemical pesticides, chemical fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs).

Organic agriculture protects our environment by conserving natural resources and promoting biodiversity.

What should I be looking out for when shopping organic products

Look for USDA-certified organic labels. This seal signifies that the product meets specific USDA standards. Look out for the USDA Organic seal on boxes, cartons cans and jars.

When shopping for meat ensure it comes only from cows that are fed 100% organic feed. Cattle are ruminants, which means they chew the cud. Ruminant cattle have 4 stomach compartments: Rumen, reticulum and omasum. All parts of an animal must be organically fed if the cow is going to be labelled '100% organic.'

Chicken should be only purchased from chickens raised on organic feed, and not given antibiotics. Chickens are omnivores. This means they can eat both plant and animal food. Omnivorous chickens have a digestive tract composed of a crop, proventriculus, gizzard, small intestine, large intestine, and anus.

Buy dairy products that are 100% organically produced. Like ruminants, dairy cattle have four stomachs. The fourth stomach compartment is the udder.

When purchasing other types of livestock, check the label to see what percentage of the diet the animals were fed. Pork may be labeled "95% Organic" which means that 95 percent of its feed was organic.

What are the most loved organic products?

The fastest-growing industry is organic food. However, we still have a lot to learn from our roots.

Organic products are the future. Organic products are safer, more sustainable, and cheaper for consumers.

However, they are also more expensive. That is why we developed the Organic Food Index. We wanted to see which foods are most in demand today and how these trends are changing.

The results showed that organic food is increasing in popularity. The number of Americans shopping for organic food grew by nearly 50% between 2011 and 2012.

According to USDA, organic production grew by 10% last year. Organic food now accounts for 9% of U.S. agricultural output.

Organic food is growing in popularity but is still expensive. According to the Organic Trade Association (OTA), average retail prices for organic food are almost double those of conventional alternatives.

Organic food is growing faster that any other sector of the food industry. If you examine the data closely, you will see that organic foods have grown steadily in consumption since 2009.

According to OTA however, the volume in supermarkets of organic products grew by 14% from 2010 to 2011.

This is because of consumer demand for healthier products, which explains the rise in organic food sales across all age categories.

The younger generation is however leading the charge for organic food. Millennials are twice as likely than baby boomers to buy organic foods. The 25% of organic food purchase made by younger adults below 35 are made up of young adults.

How To

5 Reasons to Buy Organic Products

Organic foods do not use pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. They do not contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs), or radioactive ingredients. They do not use industrial solvents or sewage effluent in their production. During its growing cycle, the food's natural environment will be protected from 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.

1. Health benefits. Nonorganic produce is more chemically-laden than organic. This means it's less likely to cause allergies and sensitivities. It also means that you consume less toxic chemicals and carcinogens.
2. Eco-friendliness. Produce grown without pesticides or synthetic fertilizer needs very little water. Because it takes so much energy to grow conventionally, organic farms tend to be located far away from urban areas where there's plenty of pollution. This helps to reduce air pollution.
3. Sustainability. Organic farming relies on soil fertility rather than chemical fertilizers; this results in healthier soils with higher levels of organic matter. It is better for soil health to rotate crops and allow the land to fallow regularly. Strong immune systems develop when farm animals are fed only grasses grown without antibiotics or added hormones.
4. Taste. Because they are picked at their peak ripeness and then shipped long distances to supermarkets, conventional fruits and vegetables can often taste bland. Because it was picked while still unripe, organic produce is richer and more flavorful.
5. Nutrition. GMOs are harmful chemicals found in many conventional processed foods. If you want to avoid these, stick to whole foods such as meat, eggs, fish, nuts, seeds, beans, fruit, veggies, and herbs.
