Have We Glorified Organic Nutrition?
Can it be that we have all just gone overboard with this thing called organic nutrition? Isn't the nutrient value of produce the same i.e. an carrot is a carrot however it is grown? Statistically, more people are buying organic food than ever before. Large retailers are moving to make this an option. And large corporate manufacturers want in on the market too, example Kraft. So, is there something to this trend? Well, let's find out... Produce has it's basic nutrients in perfect balance for ease of absorption. And each vegie has it's own unique blend of nutritional content. This is true. What makes organic stand stellar is the production methods that are used. Here we have the farmers working in unison with the land to maintain a high quality of soil. These farmers recognize that the soil is alive. And that nutrient rich soil produces healthy nutrient rich plants. The organic farmer does not use
synthetic chemical pesticides or fertilizers.
And the animals from an organic farm are fed organic food. These animals don't get contaminated with chemicals or
hormones.
If the animals aren't contaminated, then neither is the meat from the animals contaminated. Nourishment through organic food provides you with a high value content with the added bonus of being pretty well chemical free. Of course, you should still wash the produce to clean off any residue from transport.
