Organic Food Versus Conventional Food

Many of us still wonder when we walk down the supermarket aisle which is the best food for the family-organic or conventional. Going organic has now become more of a trend.

Most health magazines have been quoting their experts who firmly believe that eating organic food is healthier, more nutritious and taste better.

Fruits and vegetables are not laden with harmful chemicals which in turn seem to increase the incidence of cancer, Alzheimer's disease and certain birth defects.

Conventional foods are sprayed with pesticides that could contain chemicals that have been long banned.

The fertilizers added are chemical based and synthetic herbicides are used to curb weed growth.

These foods when consumed regularly can have a detrimental effect on the well being of a person in the long run.

Organic food is not just beneficial to the body but also to the environment. Organic farming preserves the wildlife and ecosystem.

The ground water and soil are not contaminated; waste production is under control and the environment is pollution free.

Many turn to organic food because they believe it tastes better, more juicy and full-flavored and this psychologically gives them a good feeling.

Organic fruits and vegetables are free from artificial coloring, flavorings and residual antibiotics. They are devoid of growth hormones and genetically modified ingredients.

Organic fruits and vegetables are costlier than conventional foods but it is a small price to pay for healthy and disease free life.

Organic gardening is catching on as people want to grow their own food and in a small way help the environment.
