Have you ever stood in the products section and wondered about the hype around organic products? Although organic fruits and vegetables have been around for a long time, many people still do not know the benefits of buying organic foods. In fact, most people don’t buy organic products, even though they are starting to spread, due to their steep price.

Here are five benefits of buying organic foods instead of traditional products. 

What does the word organic mean?

Before diving into the benefits, you should probably know what membership means. The meaning may be ambiguous, but it is clear that it is somewhat synonymous with a healthy one. The term “organic” refers to how a farmer grows their crops. In general, it means that they have not enriched the vegetable or fruit with any prohibited substances. However, there are a few different organic stickers that you should be aware of.

Organic foods are grown without artificial pesticides and fertilizers and contain no artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors. When a food item meets all of these criteria, they receive an “organic” label.

There are a large number of benefits that can be gained through eating organic foods instead of other product items. 

Reducing the risk of developing allergic diseases

Several studies have found an association with increased food allergies and higher levels of pesticides. It is believed that the interaction of pesticides with food at the cellular level is the cause. Some germ and weed killing products contain chemicals called dichlorophenol. Interestingly, it is also found in chlorinated drinking water in small amounts. 

While dichlorophenol works to make food and drinking water clean, the levels that people eat have started to increase, and it seems that making food very clean leads to a decrease in the ability to tolerate certain foods, raise levels of sensitivity, disrupt many hormones in the body and cause other problems such as cancer and diseases. Buying organic products greatly reduces your exposure to dichlorophenol.

Prevention of obesity

The organic or inorganic condition of the product does not affect your weight directly, but research has proven a relationship between decreased waist circumference and organic foods. Organic fruits and vegetables tend to be smaller than those fertilized regularly. While there is no definitive scientific explanation for this yet, this is thought to be due to the cost of organic supplies. Since compost costs more than regular fertilizer, farmers use less of it, which results in smaller fruits and vegetables. Although a vegetable or fruit may be smaller in size, it still contains the same amount of nutrients but has fewer calories but the same amount of nutrients. 

Improving children’s cognitive development

Plenty of research has shown a link between poor cognitive development in children and non-organic foods. As mentioned earlier, chemicals interact with hormones and cause many health, psychological and intellectual problems. Brain-related problems from chemicals used in inorganic products include diminished neurobehavioral development, low IQ, and development of ADHD. A simple way to avoid the possibility of all these complications is to buy organic products, especially if you are pregnant.

Non-GMO products

GM products mean that the DNA of a food has changed by targeting specific genes in food for scientific engineering. These genes are usually changed for reasons such as making food bigger, making food last longer, growing fruit without seeds, and producing more crops at one time or in the off-season. 

Maintaining a healthy environment

The world suffers from pollution, and pesticides and herbicides are part of the problem. Growing produce in an organic way helps a lot in preserving the environment. Organic farming uses less energy, conserves water, and reduces pollution and soil erosion because it does not use harmful chemicals that kill the nutrients in the soil. Even your local wildlife will benefit from eating organic foods. Birds and small animals will not swallow insects or seeds sprayed with harmful chemicals. These chemicals can kill these small animals.
