Benefits Of Eating Organic Food


 Having previously been a bit sceptical about the organic food and whether it really has been grown according to the label, I now acknowledge that organic vegetables for example do taste a lot better.

Story at-a-glance

• Choosing organic foods lowers your exposure to pesticides linked to cancer, damage to children’s IQ and neurobehavioral development and other health problems
• Organic foods are produced without genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and the use of antibiotics for preventive purposes is prohibited — both major benefits to human health and the environment
• Organically grown foods contain significantly higher levels of antioxidants and healthy fats than conventionally grown varieties
• Organic products are now available in close to 20,000 natural food stores and 3 out of 4 conventional grocery stores in the U.S.
