Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most loved organic products?
Today, organic foods are the fastest-growing industries. Even though we have come a long ways from our roots there is still plenty of room for growth.
Organic products are the future. Organic products are safer and better for the environment. They also make it more affordable for consumers.
But they also tend to be higher priced. We created the Organic Food Index. We wanted to know which foods are popular today and whether trends are changing.
These results indicate that organic food is growing in popularity. Between 2011 and 2012 the number of Americans buying organic food increased nearly 50%.
According to USDA, organic production grew by 10% last year. Organic food now accounts for 9% of U.S. agricultural output.
Although organic food is gaining popularity, it appears that consumers still have to pay a premium for it. The Organic Trade Association (OTA) reports that organic food retail prices average almost double the price of conventional foods.
Despite this, organic food is growing at a faster rate than any other food segment. You'll notice that organic food consumption has increased steadily since 2009.
According to OTA, organic products sold in supermarkets grew 14% between 2010-2011.
This is because consumers are looking for healthier foods. Organic food sales have been increasing in all age groups.
Younger generations are also leading the way in organic food choices. Millennials are twice likely to choose organic food than the baby boomers. The 25% of organic food purchase made by younger adults below 35 are made up of young adults.
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 organically grown without pesticides. These chemicals can pose serious risks to our environment and health.
Organic produce contains more nutrients, vitamins and minerals. This makes them more healthy because organic produce absorbs nutrients better.
Organic vegetables not only taste great, but are safe to consume. There are no known side effects associated with consuming organic produce.
All grocery stores can carry organic produce. You can find organic fruits and vegetables at all grocery stores as long as they conform to USDA guidelines.
What is an organic food manufacturer?
Organic food producers make products that are organically grown. These foods include fruits and vegetables, grains, as well as dairy products.
Organic food production takes place on farms where crops are nurtured naturally. This includes soil preparation, crop rotation, and pest management.
The USDA (United States Department of Agriculture), must set strict criteria for organic agricultural products.
These guidelines help consumers access healthy, safe and nutritious foods.
The benefits of eating organic range from lower levels of pesticide residues and heavy metal contamination to higher nutrient content and better flavour.
USDA Organic Products must have the "USDA Certified organic" label.
This certification means the product has met the standards of the National Organic Program.
Organic food helps us eat healthier and also protects the environment.
Organic farming techniques preserve water and land. Additionally, organic farming methods help reduce greenhouse gas emission, which can lead to climate change.
Organic agriculture uses less chemicals and reduces the amount of pollution runoff.
Because of this, harmful gases such as ammonia and even nitrates will not build up in the air.
There are many forms of organic farming.
Conventional farming involves the use artificial inputs such as fertilizers and pesticides.
Regenerative farming uses compost, cover crops, green manures, and other methods to improve the soil's health. It also encourages biodiversity.
Agroecology is concerned with sustainable relationships between humans, plants, animals, and the environment.
Permaculture encourages self-sufficiency by creating systems that are similar to nature.
What are the things to look for when purchasing organic products?
USDA-certified organic labels are desirable. This seal signifies that the product meets specific USDA standards. Look for the "USDA Organic" seal on packages, boxes, cartons, cans, and jars.
When buying meat, make sure it is from organically fed cows. Ruminants are cattle that chew their cud. Ruminant cattle have four stomach compartments: rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. If the cow is to be labeled "100% organic", all of its parts must have been organically fed.
Make sure you only buy chicken from chicken farms that are fed organically and have never been given antibiotics. Chickens can eat both animal and plant food. The digestive tract of an omnivorous chicken is composed of a crop and proventriculus, gizzard as well as small intestine, large intestinale, and anus.
When buying dairy products, ensure they come from cows fed 100% organically grown feed. Like ruminants, dairy cattle have four stomachs. The fourth stomach compartment--the cow's udder--is where milk is produced.
You should always check the label before purchasing any other livestock. This will let you know what percentage of the diet was given to the animals. Pork may be labeled "95% Organic" which means that 95 percent of its feed was organic.

There are also fewer additives used during processing. Organic products are healthier than those that use additives during processing.
Studies have shown that organic foods are more nutritious and rich in antioxidants than fruits and veggies grown from conventional sources.
While organic farming is more expensive than traditional farming, it often produces better results. Organic agriculture encourages soil fertility, biodiversity and biodiversity.
This helps to prevent erosion and conserve water resources. Organic farms also require less energy and fuel, as they aren't treated using toxic chemicals.
People worry that organic foods will be more expensive than those made from conventional food. However, prices vary depending on where you live. Organic apples, for example, are more expensive than regular apples.
But if you look at the total price of a basket of both types of fruit, you'll see that buying organic is cheaper.

It all depends on who you are. You shouldn't bother if you don't enjoy organic food.

Organic strawberries contained four times more pesticides that their conventional counterparts, and organic apples contained eight percent less.
Research has also suggested that organic food may reduce mercury and lead exposure. 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 mothers should avoid eating conventional fish because of the high levels mercury.
Organic food seems to be safer than the non-organic. Experts recommend fresh vegetables and fruits whenever possible in order to reduce the risk of getting cancer.

What happens to the body when you switch over to organic products
Organic products do not contain synthetic fertilizers or hormones. They come only from natural sources of water and free-range animals. They are organic because they don't contain any additives or chemicals. This product is natural and does not contain any harmful substances.
The term "natural" refers how food is grown. It's used to describe foods that have not been altered into their final form (e.g. fruits). Natural foods are often fresher than others because they haven't been treated with heat, radiation, or chemical preservatives. Natural doesn't necessarily have to be healthy, however. Experts agree that organic and conventional foods are very similar. Both types have been tested for quality and safety. Organic produce has less pesticide residues and pollutant than conventionally grown food.
In general, most grocery stores now offer organic options. If you are looking for organic meat, poultry and eggs, check with your local grocery store. Some companies only sell organic products. Others have separate sections. Look for USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, Biodynamic Association Certified, Rainforest Alliance Certified, etc.
These foods should be avoided by women who are pregnant or breast-feeding. Pesticides are known to affect unborn babies and infants.
