Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I choose organic?
The health risks of conventional agriculture include asthma, allergies and diabetes. Healthy choices must be made when purchasing food.
The Environmental Working Group offers these tips:
Buy organic fruits and vegetables whenever possible.
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 marked "natural" or with "no additives."
Carefully review ingredient lists. If an ingredient doesn't appear on the list, it could be added to the product during processing.
It is better to eat fresh meats than canned or frozen. Frozen and canned foods often contain less nutrient-rich ingredients like high fructose corn syrup.
What are organic beauty products?
Organic Beauty Products are natural products without synthetic chemicals such as petroleum, parabens, phenoxyethanol, phthalates, and artificial preservatives. These ingredients are present in all conventional beauty products including shampoos and cosmetics.
Organic beauty products do not require animal testing and are free of genetically modified organisms (GMO).
The USDA defines organic production as "a system of production which fosters the cycle of resources" and it has been used since decades to refer to foods grown without pesticides.
In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for eco-friendly beauty products because of the harmful effects of chemical substances on our bodies.
These include allergies, cancer, skin irritation, hormonal imbalance, early aging, and skin irritation.
Organic beauty businesses are committed to providing safe, healthy products that consumers can use while protecting the environment.
What is an Organic Food Producer?
Organic food producers produce organic foods that are free from pesticides and other chemical fertilizers. These foods include fruits, vegetables, grains, and dairy products.
Organic food production occurs on farms that have their crops grown naturally. This includes soil preparation, pest controls, and crop rotation.
Organic products must meet certain criteria established by USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) before they can be considered organic.
These guidelines are designed to ensure consumers have access to safe, healthy and nutritious food.
Organic foods offer many health benefits. They are free from heavy metal contamination and pesticide residues. They also have higher nutritional content and better taste.
USDA certified organic products must bear the USDA Certified Organic label.
This certification means that the product meets standards established by the National Organic Program.
As well as ensuring that we eat healthier, organic food also helps protect our environment.
Organic farming techniques preserve water and land. Organic methods also reduce greenhouse gas emissions that can cause climate change.
Organic agriculture is more sustainable and uses less chemicals.
This improves the air quality by reducing the likelihood of harmful gases like ammonia, nitrates and other pollutants building up in your atmosphere.
There are many forms of organic farming.
Conventional farming refers to the use of synthetic inputs such as pesticides and fertilizers.
Regenerative farming includes compost, cover crops, as well as green manures that improve soil health. It encourages biodiversity.
Agroecology promotes healthy relationships between humans and plants.
Permaculture encourages self-sufficiency by creating systems that are similar to nature.
What are the health benefits of organic farming
Organic farming offers farmers a method of growing food that doesn't require the use of chemicals. Farmers don't have worry about whether harmful pesticides are affecting their crops or animals.
Organic farming also allows for more natural fertilizers. These fertilizers help to grow healthy plants and help to reduce the amount of chemical waste produced.
Organic farming can also be environmentally friendly. To recycle nutrients back into soil, farmers often resort to composting. This reduces pollution and conserves valuable resources.
As well as helping the environment, organic farming increases crop yields. This is because organic farming requires less water to grow the crops.
Organic production also means that farmers get higher prices for their products. Consumers who are more informed about the dangers of pesticides or chemical fertilizers will demand healthier food.
This leads to a greater demand for organic food products. Organic farming is becoming more popular because of this.
What is organic meat exactly?
Organic meat is organic food that has been grown naturally without the use of pesticides, artificial fertilizers or hormones. It also means that the animals weren't fed any genetically modified feed. The meat is safe to consume because it contains no harmful chemicals.
Organic meats are also better for our environment. We reduce the amount of pollution in our rivers, lakes, and landfills by eating organic food. Organic farmers don't use harmful chemicals to kill birds and insects, which helps wildlife.
The best way to ensure that you eat healthy organic meats is to buy them locally whenever possible. Local shopping helps keep more money in your community than it does out of state. Local businesses often pass savings on to customers who shop locally. Local businesses are more likely to keep jobs here than export them abroad.
Statistics
- Popular clothing brands, like Patagonia, are labelled as organic by using 100 percent organic cotton for many of their styles. (en.wikipedia.org)
- As for organic meat, regulations require that animals be raised in living conditions that accommodate their natural behaviours (like the ability to graze on pasture), fed 100% organic feed and forage, and not administered antibiotics or hormones. (usda.gov)
- When packaged products indicate they are “made with organic [specific ingredient or food group],” they contain at least 70% organically produced ingredients. (usda.gov)
- Once certified by the USDA, it can fall into one of four categories: "100 percent organic", "organic," "made with organic ingredients," or "made with less than 70 percent organic ingredients. (en.wikipedia.org)

How To
What happens to your body when you switch to organic products?
Organic products do not contain synthetic fertilizers or hormones. They come only from natural sources of water and free-range animals. The term "organic" means they do not contain any chemicals or additives. This product was made from natural materials and is free of 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 usually fresher than processed foods, as they haven’t been exposed to heat, radiation, chemical preservatives, or other treatments. Natural doesn't necessarily have to be healthy, however. Experts believe there is no difference in organic and conventional food. Both types of food are tested for safety, quality, and purity. Organic produce is safer than conventionally produced produce.
Most grocery stores now carry organic meats and poultry. For organic meats, poultry, eggs and seafood, you should check with your local supermarket. Some companies sell only organic products. Other companies have separate sections. USDA Certified Organic is a non-GMO Project Verified company.
If you are pregnant, or nursing, these products should not be eaten. Unborn babies and infants can be exposed to pesticides.
