Frequently Asked Questions

Is organic meat healthier?

This question is probably answered if you've been paying close attention. Here's the problem: Organic food is becoming more sought-after, while traditional food continues to decline in popularity.

Organic foods are becoming more popular because they are better for us. Organic foods are safer for our bodies and help to reduce pollution.

There are many sides to this coin. Organic produce is more difficult to grow and takes more resources. This means that organic food costs more money than its non-organic counterpart.

Organic meats tend to be more expensive than those raised conventionally. But there are ways to cut costs without sacrificing quality.

Buy locally to save money. Buy locally grown vegetables and fruits to help keep prices low. Farmers receive incentives to grow healthier crops.

Another way to cut costs is to look for deals. You may be able to get discounts when you buy organics.

Another way to save money? Eat less meat. The feed required to raise cattle can make meat production expensive.

Organic food is healthier for the planet and our bodies than conventional food, but it's important to not overlook its cost.

What are organic products for the skin?

Organic skincare products don't contain any synthetic chemicals such as parabens or phthalates.

Organic skincare products do not contain artificial colours, fragrances or preservatives.

They also help to preserve healthy skin and prevent premature aging.

These are some of the terms that you will see when you shop for organic products

• Paraben Free – These chemicals are used to preserve certain cosmetic products, but can cause serious health problems if taken in large amounts.
• Fragrance-Free – The product does not contain essential oils or perfumes.
• Cruelty Free - No animals were injured during the manufacturing process.
• Natural Ingredients: The ingredient is naturally derived form the animal or plant.
• Vegan/Vegetarian: The ingredients can be either vegetarian or vegan.
• Gluten-Free - this means that gluten was removed from the formulation.
• Non-Toxic - The product doesn't contain toxins, carcinogens, or other dangerous compounds that could harm your health.
• Biodegradable product - when thrown out, the product will disintegrate into harmless components.
• Pesticide Free – There were no pesticides used during the harvesting or growing process.
• GMO-Free is a declaration that the product does not contain genetically modified organisms.
• Certified Organic is a certification that the ingredients of the recipe were grown using sustainable methods.

Is organic a guarantee that the product 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.

Organic produce also contains more nutrients than conventionally produced foods because it contains no harmful additives.

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

These guidelines cover soil preparation, crop rotation and pest control. They also include water conservation and harvesting techniques.

In addition, organic farming methods promote healthy ecosystems, which benefit wildlife and natural habitats.

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)
• According to a study performed by consumerreports.org, organic products, compared to non-organic products, ranged anywhere from 13 percent cheaper to 303 percent more expensive. (en.wikipedia.org)
• When packaged products indicate they are “made with organic [specific ingredient or food group],” they contain at least 70% organically produced ingredients. (usda.gov)
• Popular clothing brands, like Patagonia, are labelled as organic by using 100 percent organic cotton for many of their styles. (en.wikipedia.org)

How To

What happens when you switch from conventional products to organic?

Organic products are produced without the use of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. They come from clean water sources, and are raised on free-range animals. The term "organic", which means they don't contain additives or chemicals, refers to their non-containing any. This product is natural and does not contain any 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. Some people think natural does not necessarily mean healthy. Many experts say there isn't much difference between conventional and organic foods. Both types of food are tested for safety, quality, and purity. Organic produce has less pesticide residues and pollutant than conventionally grown food.

In general, most grocery stores now offer organic options. If you are looking for organic meat, poultry and eggs, check with your local grocery store. Some companies only sell organic products, while others offer separate sections. Look for USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, Biodynamic Association Certified, Rainforest Alliance Certified, etc.

If you are pregnant, or nursing, these products should not be eaten. Pesticides can harm unborn infants and babies.
