It is my view, that anyone who chooses to EATING ORGANIC FOOD will most certainly experience better health, less sickness, and absolutely a higher quality of life.
Eating organic foods just makes common sense because growing organic foods employs none of the synthetic fertilizers, synthetic pesticides and synthetic herbicides that CONVENTIONAL FARMING does.
TRUE Organic Farmers engage in natural ‘old-school’ farming methods.
For example, Organic Farming includes natural fertilizers, like manure, to enhance the delivery of nutrients to crops as opposed to nitrogen based fertilizers.
Did you know CONVENTIONAL FARMING uses HUMAN SEWAGE and SLUDGE to fertilize crops? Damn that’s nasty!
Rather than using synthetic pesticides to control insects, Organic Farmers use predatory bugs or birds to keep harmful insect populations down. In addition, strategies to disrupt the mating-cycles of pests are also employed.
As opposed to using synthetic herbicides, Organic Farmers roll up their sleeves and strap on their overalls and get down and dirty to control weeds by using mulch and tilling the soil.
Crop Rotation is yet another process that Organic farmers use to prevent any one nutrient from being drastically depleted in the soil.
The USDA has instituted strict guidelines for any food labeled as Organic.
For example, Organic Crops must be grown in fields that have been free of any synthetic fertilizers, synthetic pesticides or synthetic herbicides for a minimum of FIVE YEARS.
Organic Foods cannot be genetically modified.
When it comes to animal products such as meat, eggs and dairy, animals must be fed food that is grown to organic specifications, no growth hormones and zero antibiotics.
Our human bodies were not created to be filled with chemicals and synthetic products.
Unfortunately, BIG BUSINESS is created to make BIG PROFITS.
Now, I absolutely and positively have no issue with businesses making BIG PROFITS.
‘The more profits the better!’, I say.
However, when BIG BUSINESS makes BIG PROFITS at the expense of CONSUMER HEALTH, I say ‘slow down boys, we don’t need to go there!’
The bottom line, in my opinion, EATING ORGANIC is the best possible choice if you wish to enjoy a higher quality of life.
Admittedly, eating organic may be a bit more expensive and may be somewhat inconvenient, however, the health benefits are definitely worth the expense and the trouble.
