What you should know about organic food

Organic foods are plants and animals grown without pesticides, chemical fertilizers, or additives. They are made without genetic engineering and the application of ionizing radiance. The food must contain no artificial ingredients, colourings, flavour enhancers, or preservatives. It cannot contain genetically modified organisms.

The term organic is often associated with food production. In this context, organic means that the product contains only naturally occurring substances such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and minerals that occur in nature.

In the past decades, the consumption of organic products has grown dramatically worldwide. 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.
