Organic Confusion

Organic-ProduceOrganic food is always superior to conventional food. Scientific studies show that organic fruits and vegetables generally contain less toxic pesticide and herbicides than conventional produce, and organic meat and animal products allow you to avoid the effects of eating foods that have been treated with antibiotics and growth hormones. Whether organic foods actually contain higher nutrient content is unknown except from anecdotal experience, but there is evidence that organically-grown foods contain more antioxidants and micronutrients such as folic acid and vitamin C, making organic foods the ideal choice.
