Frequently Asked Questions

Does organic mean it is pesticide-free?

Organic food is free from pesticides and chemical fertilizers. This means that organic foods are not subject to chemical pesticides or fertilizers.

Because organic produce is free of harmful additives, it also has more nutrients than conventionally grown foods.

The USDA National Organic Program (NOP) requires farmers to follow strict guidelines for growing crops certified as organic.

These guidelines include soil preparation, crop rotating, pest control and water conservation.

Organic farming techniques also contribute to healthy ecosystems that benefit wildlife as well as natural habitats.

Why should you buy organic?

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

The Environmental Working Group (EWG) offers the following tips on how to pick "cleaner" food:

Always purchase organic fruits, vegetables and other products whenever possible.

USDA organic labels can be found on meat, poultry (eggs, eggs), milk, cheese and yogurt as well.

Avoid processed foods that claim to be "natural" and "no additives."

Check ingredient lists carefully. If an ingredient doesn't appear on the list, it could be added to the product during processing.

Frozen and canned meats should be preferred to fresh. Frozen and canned foods often contain less nutrient-rich ingredients like high fructose corn syrup.

What are the best organic vegetables for you?

Organic vegetables provide the most healthy and nutritious food for people. They are among the most nutritious foods on Earth.

Organic produce is produced without pesticides or herbicides. These chemicals can be dangerous to our environment as well as our health.

Organic produce is also richer in nutrients, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Because we absorb these nutrients better from organic foods, this makes them healthier.

Organic vegetables taste delicious and are safe for you to eat. Consuming organic produce has no known side effects.

You can find organic fruits and veggies at any grocery store. As long as they are produced according to USDA guidelines (which means they meet the standards set forth by the United States Department of Agriculture), they are labelled "organic." If you cannot find organic produce at your local grocery store, check out online retailers such as Amazon or Walmart.

Are organic meats better?

If you have been paying attention for long enough, you will probably know the answer. However, the truth is organic food is gaining popularity at a time when conventional food is falling out of favor.

Organic foods are becoming more popular because they are better for us. Organic products are not only safer for our health but also reduce pollution and waste.

But there are two sides to this coin. Organic produce is more difficult to grow and takes more resources. Organic food is more expensive than non-organic.

Organic meats are generally more expensive than conventionally raised animals. But, you can reduce the cost of organic meats without compromising quality.

Locally grown produce is a great way to save money. Locally grown produce helps to keep the prices down because farmers are given incentives to grow healthy crops.

Another way to cut costs is to look for deals. Many organic products can be purchased at a discount.

Another way to save money? Eat less meat. Feeding livestock can be very expensive.

There are many reasons that organic food is better than regular food for our bodies, and also for the planet. However, it is important to remember the price.

What's the difference between organic foods and inorganic food?

Organic food is free from pesticides, chemical fertilizers and sewage sludge. It can also be grown without irradiation or genetic modification. Organic farming practices promote soil health, water quality and animal welfare.

Inorganic foods can be grown using pesticides, chemical fertilizers and sewage sludge. Radiation can be used to destroy food, while genetically modified organisms are created by biological engineering.

"Natural" is sometimes used interchangeably in the context of "organic." But, "natural" does not necessarily refer to organic. There are also products labelled "natural" which may contain synthetic ingredients.

Organic produce is often more nutritious than conventional produce, as the soil has fewer pesticides and harmful chemicals. Organic farmers do not use pesticides, artificial fertilizers, hormones, anti-biotics, and other harmful chemicals.

How To

What happens to your body if you switch to organic products

Organic products are free from synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, hormones, and genetic manipulation. They are free-range and come from clean water sources. They are organic because they don't contain any additives or chemicals. This product is natural and does not contain any harmful substances.

Natural means 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. But, not everyone believes that natural foods are healthy. Many experts say there isn't much difference between conventional and organic foods. Both types have been tested for quality and safety. Organic produce contains fewer pesticide and other pollutants than conventionally-grown 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 and Non-GMO Project Verified are some of the options.

If you are pregnant, or nursing, these products should not be eaten. Unborn babies and infants can be affected by pesticides.
