We all know that eating organic is more expensive, but does it really make a difference to our health? A growing body of scientific research says, “yes”. Not only is it better for the planet, but here are the 5 top health benefits of going organic:
1. More nutrients, especially flavonoids and antioxidants.
2. Higher omega-3 fatty acids (in organic meats and eggs).
3. Less toxic metal, particularly in grains.
4. Decreased pesticide residue - and if it kills pests, do you really want it in your food?
5. Lower levels of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
