Frequently Asked Questions

Why should organic be my first choice?

The health risks of conventional agriculture include asthma, allergies and diabetes. When buying food, you must make wise choices.

The Environmental Working Group has the following tips for choosing "cleaner" food.

When possible, buy organic fruits and veggies

USDA organic labels for meat, poultry eggs, milk and cheese as well butter and honey are recommended.

Avoid processed foods labelled "natural"/ "no additives."

Check ingredient lists carefully. If an ingredient isn't listed, it may be added during processing.

Fresh meats are better than canned or frozen. Frozen and canned foods often contain less nutrient-rich ingredients like high fructose corn syrup.

Are organic foods better?

The Environmental Working Group's most recent report on pesticide residues found in food shows that organic fruits and veggies had almost half the pesticide content of non-organic. Organic apples had eight times less pesticides than nonorganic apples. However, organic strawberries had four times the amount of pesticides as their conventional counterparts.

Research has also suggested that organic food may reduce mercury and lead exposure. One study revealed that children who ate organic meat had 33 per cent lower blood lead levels than their counterparts who didn't eat organic meats. Another study concluded that pregnant mothers should avoid eating conventional fish because of the high levels mercury.

Organic food is generally safer than non-organic. Experts recommend eating fresh fruits and veggies whenever possible to reduce the chance of developing cancer.

What is organic meat exactly?

Organic meat means real food, grown without artificial fertilizers or pesticides. This also means that animals weren't given any genetically modified feed. This makes it safe for human consumption because there aren't any harmful chemicals in the meat.

Organic meats are better for the environment. When we eat organic foods, we reduce the pollution in landfills, rivers, lakes, etc. 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 purchases help keep more money within the community than traveling out of state. Local businesses often pass on savings to customers shopping locally. Shopping locally helps to keep American workers employed, as opposed to sending them overseas.

What is an organic food processor?

Organic food producers make products that are organically grown. These foods include fruits, vegetables, grains, and dairy products.

Organic food production takes place on farms where crops are nurtured naturally. This includes crop rotation, soil preparation, and pest control.

The USDA (United States Department of Agriculture), must set strict criteria for organic agricultural products.

These guidelines will ensure that consumers have safe, healthy, and nutritious food.

Organic food has many benefits, including lower pesticide residues and higher levels of heavy metal contamination as well as better nutrition and flavor.

Products certified organic by the USDA must bear the label "USDA Certified Organic" seal.

This certification indicates that the product meets the requirements of the National Organic Program.

As well as ensuring that we eat healthier, organic food also helps protect our environment.

Organic farming techniques help preserve natural resources such as water and land. Organic farming techniques also help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions which contributes to climate change.

Organic agriculture uses fewer chemicals and reduces pollution runoff.

Because harmful gases such as ammonia or nitrates are less likely in the atmosphere, it also improves air quality.

There are many kinds of organic farming: permaculture, regenerative and conventional.

Conventional farming is the use of synthetic inputs like pesticides or fertilizers.

Regenerative farming includes compost, cover crops, as well as green manures that improve soil health. It promotes biodiversity.

Agroecology focuses on sustainable relationships between people, plants, and animals.

Permaculture is a system that mimics nature and promotes self-sufficiency.

What are the advantages of organic farming?

Organic farming offers farmers a method of growing food that doesn't require the use of chemicals. The farmers don't have to worry about pesticides causing harm to their crops and animals.

Organic farming also permits for the use of natural fertilizers. These fertilizers are good for plants that are healthy and reduce chemical waste.

Organic farming can also be environmentally friendly. Farmers often use composting techniques to recycle nutrients back into the soil. This reduces the risk of pollution and helps conserve precious resources.

Organic farming also helps the environment by increasing crop yields. This is because organic farming requires less water to grow the crops.

Organic farming methods can also result in higher prices for farmers' produce. People who are more conscious of the dangers of chemical fertilizers and pesticides will eat healthier food.

This increases demand for organic food products. Organic farming is becoming more popular because of this.

What are organic beauty products?

Organic Beauty Products don't contain synthetic chemicals such as parabens. These ingredients are found in most conventional beauty products, including cosmetics, perfumes, shampoos, etc.

Organic beauty products are also free from animal testing and do not contain any genetically modified organisms (GMO).

The USDA defines the term' organic' as "a system of production that fosters cycling of resources" and has been used for decades to describe foodstuffs grown without pesticides.

Due to the adverse effects of chemicals on our bodies, there has been a growing demand for eco-friendly cosmetics in recent years.

These include cancer, allergies, skin irritation, hormonal imbalance, and premature aging.

Organic beauty companies are committed to creating healthy and safe products for consumers while protecting the environment.

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 promote soil health, water quality and animal welfare.

Inorganic foods are produced using chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and sewage effluent. Radiated foods can be treated with radiation. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are created by biological engineering techniques.

The term "natural" is often used interchangeably with "organic." Natural does not always mean organic. Products labelled "natural", however, may contain synthetic chemicals.

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 happens to the body when you switch over to organic products

Organic products are grown without pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, hormones, antibiotics, or genetic manipulation. They are derived from clean water and animals that have been free to roam. Organic products are those that do not contain chemicals or other additives. This product was produced by nature and therefore contains no harmful substances.

The term "natural", refers only to how food was grown. It is usually used to describe foods that haven't been processed into their final form (e.g., fruits). Natural foods are often more fresh than others, because they haven’t been processed with heat, radiation or chemical preservations. But, not everyone believes that natural foods are healthy. Experts believe there is no difference in organic and conventional food. Both types can be tested for safety and quality. Organic produce is less likely to contain pesticide residues and pollutants than conventionally grown produce.

Most grocery stores now sell organic products. Organic meat, poultry or eggs can be found at most local markets. Some companies only sell organic products, while others offer separate sections. USDA Certified Organic is a non-GMO Project Verified company.

These products should not be consumed if you are pregnant. Unborn babies and infants can be affected by pesticides.
