Frequently Asked Questions
What are some things I should look out for when purchasing organic goods?
USDA-certified organic labels are desirable. This certification means that the product is certified organic by USDA. Look out for the USDA Organic seal on boxes, cartons cans and jars.
When shopping for meat, ensure it comes from cows fed 100% organic feed. Cattle are ruminants, which means they chew the cud. Ruminant cattle can be found with four stomach compartments: the rumen, the reticulum, omasum, abomasum and omasum. To be labeled '100% organic, all animal parts must be organically nourished.
Make sure you only buy chicken from chicken farms that are fed organically and have never been given antibiotics. Omnivore chickens eat both animals and plants. Omnivorous chickens have a digestive system that includes a crop (proventriculus), gizzard and small intestine.
You should ensure you only buy dairy products made from milk that has been produced by cows who have been fed 100% organically grown food. 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. One example is pork that may be labeled '95% Organic'. This means that 95 percent came from organic sources.
Why should I choose organic?
Conventional agriculture has been linked with many health problems including asthma, allergies. When buying food, you must make wise choices.
The Environmental Working Group offers these tips:
Always buy organic fruits & vegetables.
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.
It is better to eat fresh meats than canned or frozen. Many frozen and canned foods contain less nutrients, like high fructose Corn Syrup.
Is organic meat better?
You probably know the answer if you have been paying attention for a while. But here's the rub, organic food is becoming more popular while conventional food continues to fall out of favour.
Organic foods are becoming more popular because they are better for us. Organic foods are also safer for our overall health and reduce pollution.
There are many sides to this coin. Organic produce takes longer to grow, and it requires more resources. Organic food is generally more expensive than nonorganic.
Organic meats can be more expensive that those from conventionally raised animals. But, you can reduce the cost of organic meats without compromising quality.
One way to save money is to buy locally. Locally grown produce helps to keep the prices down because farmers are given incentives to grow healthy crops.
Another way to cut costs is to look for deals. Organics often come with discounts.
Consuming less meat is another way to save cash. Due to the cost of raising livestock, meat production can be expensive.
While there are many reasons organic food is better for our bodies as well as the planet, we must not forget the cost.

How To
What you need to know about organic foods
Organic foods come from plants and animals without chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or additives. They are produced without genetic engineering or the application of ionizing radiation. No artificial colourings, flavour enhancers, preservatives, or colourings must be used in the food. It must not contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
In 1845, Justus von Liebig, a chemist, first coined the term "organic", meaning "life-giving", to describe the properties and characteristics of manure. Most people associate organic production with food. In this context, organic means that the product contains only naturally occurring substances such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and minerals that occur in nature.
Globally, organic product consumption has increased significantly over the last decade. Recent statistics indicate that approximately half of the world’s population eats at least one organic food per day. This percentage continues to rise and is projected to increase by 70%, 80%, or 90% by 2020.
Organic products are preferred for many reasons. Some prefer the flavor, while others prefer them because they are healthier. Others also believe organic farming makes it more sustainable. Non-organic products are often chosen because they do not pose ethical issues regarding the treatment of farm workers or animals.
Organic foods are usually more expensive than conventional ones, although prices vary depending on countries and regions. There are many factors that affect the cost of organic food. One factor is the availability land suitable for organic agricultural. The cost of inputs and labor required for organic cultivation is another factor. Other factors include transportation costs, marketing costs, and taxes. In Europe, for example, organic food prices are 10% more than regular food.
