In order to avoid eating genetically modified food, the best option you have is starting to buy organic food. This type of food is the most healthy way of living one can possibly have nowadays. Should you be eating dairy or meat products, you must be aware of the fact that the dairy cows and farm animals are fed a dangerous cocktail of anti-biotic stuff, growth promoting drugs, anti-parasite drugs and many other medicines on a daily basis. This happens no matter if they are ill or not. The worse part of all this is the fact that these drugs are passed directly onto the consumers of their dairy produce or meat. This is the main reason why many meat-related diseases like coronaries and high blood pressure appear each and every single day.
On the other hand, the organic food does not contain all these poisonous chemicals. The fresh organic food contains on average 50% more vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other micro-nutrients than intensively farmed have. Are these enough reasons fro you to go organic? If not, here are some more facts and figures to help you decide faster!
First and foremost, the organic food simply tastes so much better. Fruit and vegetables full of juice and flavor and there are so many different varieties to try! There are about 100 different kinds of organic potatoes in production only in the United Kingdom!
The intensive farming can seriously damage the health of many farm workers. There are much higher occurrences of cancer, respiratory problems and other major diseases in farm workers from non-organic farms. So, choosing organic food can be a way of showing that you care about the health of other people!
Organic farms can also support wildlife. In the last few years, the practice of intensive farming in the United Kingdom has been the cause to the dramatic erosion of the soil, the destruction of ancient hedgerows, a fall of up to 70% of wild birds in some areas and the near extinction of some of the most beautiful species of wild mammals, grass-snakes and even butterflies.
Last but not least, let us speak about the extra costs of eating organic food. It is not more expensive than the intensively farmed foods, especially when thinking about the damages that agro-chemicals make to our natural water supply. Besides paying for these intensively farmed foods, we also have to pay for cleaning the mess they leave behind. So, what is the best option for us? Organic food, of course!
