Why Organic
FRUITS & VEGETABLES:
Corporate farming of fruits and vegetables utilize
extensive use of chemical fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides. With all the
toxins in our environment it is best to avoid eating them as well.
Crop rotation, which enriches the soil, is a thing of the
past. On huge corporate farms, chemicals are added to the soil to ensure the
size and color of the crops, instead of building the soil with organic
nutrients. Fruits and vegetables grown this way do not taste like they used to,
nor do they have the nutritional value that they used to. Eating organic is not
only essential to avoid the pesticides and herbicides, it is essential to
obtain the wide range of nutrients our bodies need to energize, heal, and
maintain optimal health. Organic vegetables usually cost more than non-organic
but the cost is much less than the resulting health problems caused by lack of
nutrients for the body. The right food is the best medicine available.
