How your food is grown or raised can have a major impact on your mental and emotional health as well as the environment. Organic foods often have more beneficial nutrients, such as antioxidants, than their conventionally-grown counterparts and people with allergies to foods, chemicals, or preservatives may find their symptoms lessen or go away when they eat only organic foods.
Here are some benefits of organic food:
- Organic food is fresher
Organic food is also often fresher because it does not contain preservatives that prolongs its shelf life. - Organic farming is better for environmental health
Organic farming is better for the environment because its practices involve less pollution soil erosion, and energy. Eliminating the use of pesticides in farming also benefits nearby birds and animals and people who live close to farms. - Organic food is GMO-free
Genetically modified organisms (GMO) or genetically engineered (GE) foods are plants whos DNA were altered in ways that do not occur in nature or in traditional crossbreeding. - Organics dont inhibit the growth of super strains
Nature always adapts.
