7 Reasons to Choose Organic Food (1 Min. Read)

Organic food is known to be a healthier option for consumers as well as the environment, and it contributes to animal welfare, sustainable farming and general health. Here are 7 reasons as to why choosing organic food is the better option. 

1. No harmful chemicals

Organic food is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, which harm the environment and may cause health problems.

2. No GMOs

Organic food is non-GMO, meaning it hasn't been genetically modified.

3. No antibiotics

Organic meat and dairy products come from animals that are not given antibiotics or growth hormones.

4. Natural taste

The lack of chemicals in farming and the lack of chemical additives and preservatives in food production give organic products a more natural taste.

5. Supports small-scale farmers

Choosing organic food supports small-scale farmers and producers. Most organic food is produced and owned by small-scale family businesses.

6. Better for the environment

Organic farming promotes biodiversity and reduces pollution, helping to preserve the planet for future generations.

7. More sustainable

Organic farming focuses on long-term sustainability and soil health, which holistically helps reduce the environmental impact of food production.
