Is it important to choose organic? Yes! Here are five reasons why.

1. Organic food is more nutritious. When produce is fed large amounts of synthetic fertilizers, it grows bigger, brighter, and faster than organic produce. Instead, he experiences bionic and unnatural growth. Cells are full of falsities, not micronutrients that take time to absorb and integrate into the plant.
2. Organic food tastes better. Along the same lines as Number 1, if a plant grows too fast, too big, and prioritizes falsehoods, it will be bland and tasteless. If you’re lucky enough to remember eating produce from your grandparents’ garden, you know very well that tomatoes were fantastic! Deeply colored, sweet and juicy, and the flavor was so good it warranted eating them plain. By comparison, eat the sickly, grainy, HUGE, flavorless orbs called tomatoes today and they are pitiful. You would never bother eating just one!
3.Organic is not harmful. If you eat produce that has been sprayed with synthetic chemical pesticides, you are taking those chemicals into your body. But they are not natural, so your body has no way to metabolize them. Instead, they go into your body… but they can’t get out. They are like plastic in a landfill, there forever. This increasing concentration of harmful pesticides is a major causal factor for the rising incidence of autism, ADHD, asthma, Alzheimer’s, etc. As synthetic pesticides are neurotoxins (meaning they affect the ‘brains’ of pests), they will also affect human brains. Hence the diseases.
4. Organic is non-GMO. GMO stands for Genetically Modified Organism. When crops are grown conventionally with acres and acres of monocultures, nature tries to put in other plants to diversify. These plants are perceived to compete for water, nutrients, etc. Big Agriculture says, “Kill the weeds!” But you can’t spray RoundUp in fields without killing the corn as well. So the mad scientists altered the DNA of corn by removing a chromosome from corn…and replacing it with a RoundUp chromosome. Then you can spray the crop with RoundUp and not damage the corn. But now, if you eat that GM corn, you’re eating RoundUp, a carcinogen. (Can you imagine thinking this is a good idea?) You should eat organic to avoid GMOs.
5. Organic is more sustainable. Big Agriculture will argue this point until the cows come home, but it’s true. Large crop monocultures are terrible for the environment. They deplete the soil, fail to provide biodiversity to support the normal processes of nature, and destroy important habitats, including those for honey bees that pollinate crops and which are disappearing. Growing organic crops produces more per acre, has far fewer problems with pests and diseases, requires fewer additional nutrients, and can lower your carbon footprint.
