Since there is so much market pressure to harvest more and more crops, producers often sacrifice product texture and quality for the sake of quantity. It has become common practice to control pest and insect attacks by the use of pesticides, not to mention that even the growth process is now accelerated by the addition of chemical stimulants.
The market is over-saturated with conventional products, and the availability of natural organic food is much lower by comparison. People lack education, awareness and information about what goes in their food. A massive change of paradigm is necessary to improve eating patterns and food choices.
Food Quality
There are countless benefits for consuming natural organic foods. Did you know that there are over 30 chemicals in a simple apple? And you can’t wash them away. There has been a major drop in food quality over the last few decades, and we can only hope that natural organic foods will reinstate the balance once more. In comparison with products from conventional crops, green products have 50% more nutrients and they are so much tastier.
Meats
Cattle and poultry are now raised both on organic and non-organic farms. Chicken is the most contaminated meat of all as it contains growth hormones and antibiotics. Moreover, animals are grown in very dire conditions, in small, crowded boxes with artificial light only. With organic farming, the animals are growing naturally, in an unpolluted environment with almost no restrictions whatsoever.
Try to consume natural organic foods that come from local family farms, and you’ll improve your health and give a chance to a better living to humans and animals alike.
Showing interest in organic diets and actually making organic food choices proves responsibility towards the health of your family. Try to read more on organic food, and learn how to cook meals that preserve most of nutrients in food. Go to the local market, find out which farmers provide organic products and shop with them.
If you place larger orders with a certain provider, you may be able to take advantage of free delivery. Natural organic foods can also be ordered on the Internet. In case you have no other provider in your neighborhood, a search engine query may help you find a good alternative. It’s time you enjoyed every green choice you have! Make it a lifestyle!
