(Food-Beverage-News.Com, June 20, 2013 ) San Francisco, CA -- Organic food has become increasingly popular in the last few decades with the backlash that Monsanto and pesticides such as Roundup have been receiving. The amount of revenue from organic products brought in over $30 billion in 2011, and accounted for 4.2 percent of the food bought in America.
Some experts say that common sense should tell people that staying away from pesticides is their best bet for healthy eating. Avoiding synthetic chemicals by buying organic food seems to be safer than eating chemical-laced, GMO food. But other experts say that there isn’t any real research that suggests eating all organic will lead to better health.
Because there hasn’t been enough funding to find out scientific and health differences in organic and conventional food, there isn’t any definitive proof organic eating will make someone healthier and skinnier. And since organic food cost significantly more than other foods, skeptics claim that eating organic isn’t worth the costs.
A study published in the journal of Environmental Health prospects showed that when children switched to an all organic diet, within just five days there were no traces of pesticides in their urine. Also, pesticides and chemicals can cause water and fluid retention, making people gain weight and look fatter than they are.
A good guide for families on a food budget that still want to stay away from pesticides can refer to the the Environmental Working Group’s list of Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen Foods.
