Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I go organic?
The health risks of conventional agriculture include asthma, allergies and diabetes. You must make healthy choices when buying food.
The Environmental Working Group (EWG) offers the following tips on how to pick "cleaner" food:
When possible, buy organic fruits and veggies
Look for USDA organic labels on meat, poultry, eggs, milk, cheese, yogurt, butter, and honey.
Avoid processed foods labelled "natural"/ "no additives."
Make sure you read through all the ingredients. If an ingredient is not listed, it can be added during processing.
Choose fresh meats over frozen or canned ones. Cans and frozen foods are often less nutritious than fresh meats, such as high fructose corn syrup.
Which organic products are most in demand?
The fastest-growing industry is organic food. However, we still have a lot to learn from our roots.
Organic products will be the future. They are safer, better for our environment, and more affordable for consumers.
They also tend to have higher prices. That is why we developed the Organic Food Index. We wanted the ability to identify which foods are currently most popular and whether these trends have changed.
The results of the study show that organic food has become more popular. Between 2011 and 2012 the number of Americans buying organic food increased nearly 50%.
The USDA reports that organic production increased 10% last year. Currently, organic food accounts for 9% in the U.S. agricultural production.
Organic food is definitely on the rise, but it still seems expensive for consumers. The Organic Trade Association (OTA) reports that organic food retail prices average almost double the price of conventional foods.
The organic food sector is growing faster than other segments of the food supply. If you look closely at the data, it will be apparent that organic food consumption has steadily increased since 2009.
In fact, according to OTA, the volume of organic products sold in supermarkets grew by 14% between 2010 and 2011.
This increase reflects consumer demand for healthier foods, which explains why organic food sales are increasing across all age groups.
The younger generation is however leading the charge for organic food. Millennials are twice as likely than baby boomers to buy organic foods. Young adults aged below 35 account for 25%.
What's the difference between organic foods and inorganic food?
Organic food does not contain pesticides, chemical fertilisers, sewage waste, irradiation, genetic modification. Organic farming practices contribute to soil health, water purity, and animal welfare.
Inorganic food is grown with pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Irradiated foods are treated with radiation; genetically modified organisms (GMO) are created through biological engineering techniques.
"Organic" and "natural" are often interchangeable. However, natural does not necessarily mean organic. Natural products can also be labeled with synthetic ingredients.
Organic produce is often more nutritious than conventional produce, as the soil has fewer pesticides and harmful chemicals. Organic farmers are free from artificial fertilizers and pesticides.
What is organic?
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. This makes it safe for human consumption because there aren't any harmful chemicals in the meat.
Organic meats are good for the environment. Eating organic foods helps reduce pollution in the environment, such as rivers and lakes. We can also help wildlife by eating organic foods. Organic farmers do not often use toxic chemicals that can kill birds or insects.
You can eat organic meats and produce whenever you can. Local purchases help keep more money within the community than traveling out of state. Local businesses often pass down savings to customers when they shop locally. Shopping locally helps to keep American workers employed, as opposed to sending them overseas.
Statistics
- 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)
- Nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids were up to 50 percent higher in organic meats and milk than in conventionally raised products.[3] (en.wikipedia.org)
- Popular clothing brands, like Patagonia, are labelled as organic by using 100 percent organic cotton for many of their styles. (en.wikipedia.org)
- 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 are free from synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, hormones, and genetic manipulation. They come from clean water sources, and are raised on free-range animals. Organic products are those that do not contain chemicals or other additives. This product was made from natural materials and is free of harmful substances.
Natural means how food is grown. It is used to describe food that has not been processed into its 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. Some people don't believe that natural means healthy. Many experts say there isn't much difference between conventional and organic 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 shops now carry organic options. Check with your local market if you want organic meat, poultry, dairy, eggs, and seafood. Some companies sell only organic products. Other companies have separate sections. You should look for USDA Certified Organic, Non GMO Project Verified (Biodynamic Association Certified), Rainforest Alliance Certified, and other certifications.
These products should not be consumed if you are pregnant. Unborn babies and infants can be exposed to pesticides.
