Another Study Confirms the Benefits of Organic Food

Recent

research from an independent study conducted for the European Parliament confirmed what most of us already know...that growing and eating organic food is beneficial, to both the consumer and the planet. The study measured some of the major differences between organic and non-organic food and farming, and has reached some impressive conclusions, including:

  • A reduced risk of food-born allergies in children

  • A reduced risk of obesity in adults that ate organic food  

  • Reduced greenhouse gas emissions

  • Reduced risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes

  • Reduced risk of developing cardiovascular disease

  • Reduced exposure to harmful pesticides

  • Reduced exposure to heavy metals that are frequently found in fertilizers

  • A higher level of beneficial omega-3 fatty acids

  • Reduced exposure to antibiotics

As study after study continues to confirm, the benefits of organic, regeneratively grown food offers a wealth of benefits in healthy vitamins and minerals, while reducing exposure to unnecessary antibiotics, pesticides and toxic metals.
