What is organic food
1.
2. WHAT IS ORGANIC FOOD?
Making a commitment to healthy eating is a great start
towards a healthier life. Beyond eating more fruits,
vegetables, whole grains, and good fats, however, there
is the question of food safety, nutrition, and
sustainability. How foods are grown or raised can
impact both your health and the environment.
3. WHAT DOES “ORGANIC” MEAN?
The term “organic” refers to the way agricultural products are
grown and processed.
Organic crops must be grown in safe soil, have no
modifications, and must remain separate from conventional
products.
Farmers are not allowed to use synthetic pesticides,
bioengineered genes (GMOs), petroleum-based fertilizers, and
sewage sludge-based fertilizers.
4. THE BENEFITS OF ORGANIC FOOD
Organic produce contains fewer pesticides.
Organic food is often fresher.
Organic farming is better for the environment.
Organically raised animals are NOT given antibiotics,
growth hormones, or fed animal by products.
Organic food is GMO(Genetically Modified Organisms )-
free.
5. WHAT ARE THE POSSIBLE RISKS
OF PESTICIDES?
Increase the risk of certain cancers, such as leukemia,
lymphoma, brain tumors, breast cancer and prostate
cancer.
Children and fetuses are most vulnerable
Pregnant women are more vulnerable .
Lead to health issues such as headaches, birth defects, and
added strain on weakened immune systems.
The widespread use of pesticides has led to the emergence
of “super weeds” and “super bugs,”
6. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ORGANICS AND NON
ORGANICS FOODS
Organic produce:
No Pesticides in production
Grown with natural fertilizers (manure, compost).
Weeds are controlled naturally (crop rotation, hand weeding, mulching, and
tilling).
Insects are controlled using natural methods (birds, good insects, traps).
Conventionally grown produce:
Pesticides used
Grown with synthetic or chemical fertilizers.
Weeds are controlled with chemical herbicides.
Insecticides are used to manage pests and disease.
7. FRUITS AND VEGETABLES WHERE THE
ORGANIC LABEL MATTERS THE MOST
1. Apples , Sweet Bell Peppers
2. Cucumbers, Celery
3. Potatoes, Grapes
4. Cherry Tomatoes
5. Summer Squash, Spinach
6. Peaches
7. Strawberries
8. Hot Peppers
9. DOES WASHING AND PEELING GET RID
OF PESTICIDES?
Rinsing reduces but does not eliminate pesticides. Peeling
sometimes helps, but valuable nutrients often go down the
drain with the skin. The best approach: eat a varied diet, wash
and scrub all produce thoroughly, and buy organic when
possible.
