Q&A - 5 More Reasons to Go Organic 

The debate about organic food continues in the media with the 'latest' study proclaiming that there isn't any nutritional benefits in organic produce.  

This is up against numerous studies that have found organic plant based foods contain on average 25% more beneficial nutrients than non-organic produce (for more information on the nutritional benefits of organic food Click Here).

  1. Help to Fight Cancer
    The incidence of cancer has grown significantly since World War 2 and the growth can't just be put down to better detection methods.  A 2007 study concluded that the main culprit for the rising cancer tide was the many carcinogens in the environment. On average organic foods contain about a third more cancer-fighting antioxidants than non-organic food.
  2. Reduce Pesticide Related Health Problems
    Increased levels of pesticides have been linked to erectile dysfunction and estrogen related health problems (EXTOXNET).
  3. Give Kids a Better Start
    There have been studies that  have shown dairy and meat produce from organic sources have increased levels of healthy fatty acids in breastmilk (British Journal of Nutrition 2007). 
  4. Avoid GMOs
    GMOs or genetically modified organisms are still relatively new which means there is little data on the long term health benefits for humans.  Labeling laws in Australia mean many GMO ingredients don't have to be identifed on the ingredient list for grocery items.  Organic foods are guaranteed GMO free.
  5. Know How Your Food is Produced
    Buying organic food is one way to safeguard the integrity of your food.  If food has been certified organic then you know that is has been grown, handled, packaged and distributed without any chemical interference.  The food chain can be traced all the way along the process.
