Frequently Asked Questions
How can you tell whether food is organic?
If you ask any chef, he'll tell you there's nothing more important than fresh ingredients. Because we feel better when we eat well.
This holds true for our food. When we buy organics, we know exactly where it came from and how it was grown. We also know it was not treated using harmful chemicals.
Organic foods are made without the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, hormones, steroids, antibiotics, or genetically altered organisms (GMO). Organic farmers aren't allowed to use these substances.
But that doesn't mean there isn't an art to growing organic crops. There are plenty of ways to grow them safely.
Sustainable agriculture is also known as organic farming. Organic farming is more sustainable than traditional methods and provides all the nutrients necessary to sustain life.
Organic farming methods include crop rotations, composting manure and cover cropping. These techniques prevent soil erosion while improving water quality.
They also reduce chemical contamination of waterways. Many of us live in urban areas so we have access to local farms that produce organic produce.
Two types of certification programs are available for organic products. One is certified under the USDA National Organic Program. The other is certified independently by certifying authorities. Both require strict conformity to organic standards.
USDA seals and O Seals may be used to identify organic products that meet federal standards.
Is organic the same as pesticide-free?
Organic food is chemical-free and grown without pesticides. This means that organic food is often free of pesticides and fertilizers.
Because organic produce does not contain harmful additives it has more nutrients that conventionally produced foods.
Farmers must follow strict guidelines to grow organic crops under the USDA National Organic Program (NOP).
These guidelines include soil preparation and crop rotation, pest management, water conservation, as well as harvesting practices.
Organic farming techniques also contribute to healthy ecosystems that benefit wildlife as well as natural habitats.
What are the best organic vegetables for you?
Organic vegetables are the highest quality and healthiest food source. They are the healthiest of all foods.
Organic produce is produced without pesticides or herbicides. These chemicals pose grave risks for our health and the environment.
Organic produce also has more nutrients, vitamins minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients. They also contain more fibre, essential fatty acids, enzymes, fiber, and enzymes. This makes them healthier because we absorb these nutrients better when eating organics.
Not only do organic vegetables taste delicious, but they are also safe to eat. Consuming organic produce has no known side effects.
Every grocery store will carry organic fruit and vegetables. As long as they are produced according to USDA guidelines (which means they meet the standards set forth by the United States Department of Agriculture), they are labelled "organic." If you cannot find organic produce at your local grocery store, check out online retailers such as Amazon or Walmart.

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 come from clean water sources and free-range animals. The term "organic" means they do not contain any chemicals or additives. This product was produced by nature and therefore contains no harmful substances.
Natural means how food is grown. It's usually used to describe foods not processed into their final form (such as fruits). Natural foods are more fresh than other foods because they have not been subject to heat, radiation or chemical preservatives. Natural doesn't necessarily have to be healthy, however. Experts say that there aren't many differences between organic and conventional food. Both types of food have been tested for safety and quality. Organic produce contains fewer pesticide and other pollutants than conventionally-grown produce.
Most grocery stores now carry organic meats and poultry. If you are looking for organic meat, poultry and eggs, check with your local grocery store. Some companies sell only organic products. Other companies have separate sections. Look for USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, Biodynamic Association Certified, Rainforest Alliance Certified, etc.
These items should be avoided if you're pregnant or breastfeeding. Pesticides are known to affect unborn babies and infants.
