British Government Study Says: Organic is not Healthier
Really, folks? Were we questioning the possibility that organically grown foods were more nutritious than traditional grown? I think not. We (being fully informed consumers) know that food is food is food. Raw food is healthiest (as in lots and lots of produce in its natural state). That’s a no brainer. We also know that adding a dose of pesticide and herbicide to our produce is a BAD idea. Sure, it doesn’t alter basic nutrition (same vitamins and minerals, fats and proteins), but it does introduce carcinogens into our bodies (not to mention a whole host of other unpleasantness).
According to CNN’s Jack Cafferty, “Researchers looked at 50,000 studies conducted over 50 years — and found no significant differences in the foods. They focused on a wide range of crops and livestock raised and marketed under organic standards.”
