How To
What happens to your body if you switch to organic products
Organic products can be grown without synthetic fertilizers, hormones or antibiotics. They come only from natural sources of water and free-range animals. The term "organic", which means they don't contain additives or chemicals, refers to their non-containing any. This product was created by nature, and therefore does not contain 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 often fresher because they're not subject to heat radiation, chemical preservatives or any other treatment. Some people think natural does not necessarily mean healthy. Experts aren't sure if there is much to be different between organic and traditional foods. Both types can be tested for safety and quality. But organic produce has fewer pollutants and pesticide residues than conventionally grown produce.
Most grocery stores offer organic options. For organic meats, poultry, eggs and seafood, you should check with your local supermarket. Some companies offer only organic products while others have separate sections. Look for USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, Biodynamic Association Certified, Rainforest Alliance Certified, etc.
These products should not be consumed if you are pregnant. Pesticides have been shown to harm infants and unborn babies.
