Eat Healthy With Organic Foods
When you shop at the grocery store or supermarket to buy fruits and vegetables, do you pick just any produce or are you particular about eating organic foods? There is a difference between the two and, after our discussion, you may decide that organic foods are the best choice for you and your family. Let's take a look at the benefits of buying organic produce.
While both kinds of produce may look the same, food grown organically must be able to meet "specific standards" of production, including specific growing and processing conditions that are unique to foods that can be labeled "organic". For crop foods, the organic foods cannot be grown using any chemical pesticides, non-organic fertilizer, human waste fertilizer or sludge from sewage. They also can't be processed using ionizing radiation,a process that kills bacteria but that some believe is unsafe. Finally, the food can't be genetically altered.
Natural foods can include fresh vegetables and fruits, which have not been processed and come directly from the growers through farmers markets, natural food stores, supermarkets and roadside stands. Many of these products are only available during certain times of the year. Readily available these days are organic eggs, dairy products and meat in their fresh and unprocessed forms. Organic eggs are generally provided by free-range chickens and not from those kept in cages in large, egg factories. Organic meats must not come from animals that have been treated with any growth hormones, steroids or antibiotics.

Organic site that impressed me. Has all organic/cruelty free stuff which I found cool. The “recycled bags” didn’t look dumb either.
