  1. Organic food is grown without the use of pesticides and is, therefore, supposed to be healthier for you. Because its grown under special conditions, is grown in smaller crops and sometimes is hand harvested, it costs more than regular produce.
  2. no pesticides in organic food
  3. Organic is healthier for you but taste horrible.
  4. Organic food, is food that is grown naturally, no chemicals, no pesticides and no hormones to make it grow bigger or better. People wonder why our children are physically maturing much faster then they did 20 years ago and it's the hormones that are put into the food. CHicken gets it to make them bigger, cows get it to make them produce more milk. veggies are sprayed to make the grow quicker so there can be a second harvest and it's affecting our children. 13 year old girls look 18 now..ok off my soapbox now.. but organic is better for you. however it's more expensive since they are not using all of the things that the other farmers are using to get extra crops or larger produce. hope this helps.
  5. Everyone was just talking about vegetables, and meat. However, you should eat organic pasta, crackers, and etc. too. There are tons of unhealthy ingredients in processed foods. Most preservatives and food additives are bad. Preservatives prevent bacteria from growing and hence mold from growing on food. Preservatives are actually a bacteria inhibitor or bacteria killer. Hence, you are eating the preservative and its killing all the good bacteria in your stomach and body. Most food additives promote taste, texture, or appearance of the food. It's all a marketing scam to sell products at the expense of your health. Preservatives promote shelf life and food additives make the food more appealing. All at the expense of your health. In short, buy everything CERTIFIED organic. I hope that helps. If you have more questions, then email me by looking up my profile.
